Interesting argument. At first I thought that the following uncensored interview with Bjarne Stroustrup was a joke, but your argument makes it seem all the more plausible: An Interview with Bjarne Stroustrup http://www.ariel.com.au/jokes/An_Interview_with_Bjarne_Stroustrup.html Some say that C++ was intentionally designed to be extremely difficult to use specifically in order for C++ programmers to earn those "big bucks." Maybe this is just me, but if I had to choose a tool, I'd choose one that would be easy to use well. -- Benjamin L.
