Well I kind'a hope you are not a screaming Java bigot, but there are
serious reasons particular programming languages are chosen for
particular projects.  And if the language choice is done properly,
logically, and realistically it will definitely not be the only language
the programmer happens to know.  Harkens back to the very old joke, "He
can write Fortran in any language!"

If my world was perfect we would all still be writing ASSEMBLER...  But,
I use the poor substitute "C" when performance, module size, and
portability are important.  When I feel real lazy or the client starts
screaming about the overtime, I use a "third generation" language
(Object Oriented.)  If I particularly dislike the client and want to get
rid of him as fast as I can, I use an interpreted language (no compile
time).  And as I slip away he is on the phone ordering bigger and faster
hardware.
