I hang out in the #learnprogramming IRC channel on freenode, and we have a j eval bot in there. I tend to use it quite a bit when explaining things to people (or just for entertainment) and I've noticed J tends to intrigue, but also confuse and intimidate our 'students'. I wanted to make something that would look more familiar to them, but that would still be J. Also, I just wanted to learn more about writing conjunctions. :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
