In the case that your original note was anything but a troll, all I
can say is: "Look in the mirror".

You didn't ask a question, you didn't throw out some comments to
initiate a discussion.  You posted an arrogant, conclusive,
know-it-all, attacking diatribe.  What's more is it was ignorant,
simplistic, vague and without specifics.  You say you've been on this
list for "less than 24 hours", yet you know all about it, including
that people don't answer questions here.  How do you expect people to
respond!  You seem to have all the answers already.  You're lucky you
got any substantial responses at all.  And it's hard to imagine that
was really your goal.

In the case that you're just frustrated and are venting, you need to
take a step back and calm down.  Lots of people have problems getting
started with Java -- and that's true for lots of other
languages/tools.  Lots of people have also have had lots of success
with Java as well.

If you want to have an "advocacy"-style debate, this is probably not
the place for it.  But if you have some specific questions/comments
about servlets, then post those calmly and rationally and we can take
it from there.
