well as I have probably stated before there tom has always said he
ran with c++ as a language.
That language is harder to learn than others and is complex.
His ideas were quite advanced for the gaming community.
Critsising people about their languages is not fair but then I only
tested games and made sounds for those.
I never programmed in my life.
And he was not always like that there was a time where dotnet was
what he liked.
And he has always been helpfull.

In the end, Thomas admitted he was biest toward python and no insults
and name calling was required, just reason and statement of fact.
