man.. thank you! a man who has actually played with spidermonkey and js.. and
real advice from the trenches! thanks muchly! confirms my thoughts that lua is
a much better fit. i was thinking of getting lua in by end of august... i need
to play with it first... the question is.. embryo - keep for compatibility
(after the lua change) or throw out? i would keep it anyway while adding lua...
but then.. remove or not? i am listening to those using embryo right now.
