I think you are both right. _javascript_ doesn't sucks after all it is a pretty language close to C and powerful enough to make great embedded applications. What sucks are the implementations. Specially the one from Redmond, non standard, buggy, slow, etc, etc.

Not at all. I completely recognise that _javascript_ could be better. But if it sucked, these great apps couldn't have been written using it. To say something "sucks" is to say it has almost no use. It's really derogatory.

Perhaps I'm just being cranky...

You seem to be under the impression that just because _javascript_ sucks
things written in _javascript_ suck. This is not the case. Great apps
are produced in _javascript_, just as great apps are produced in php and
vb. This doesn't make the language holy writ or above criticism.
