After some experimenting with Java, I decided it was just too slow for
my projects. I write programs for people who are trying to get 8 hours
of work done in approximately 8 hours, not 14 :)
Also, from a programmer's standpoint, it's a little annoying to have to
declare an object and methods for _everything_ no matter how trivial.
