I have sinned...

I have sinned against myself and against humanity. I have committed the
worst of all possible internet errors: I have flamed. Not only did I
flame, but I did in unprovoked. I should't have used comments like "this
must be a joke" and words like "silly." I apologize in advance of
anybody flaming me back for it.

I have to say that reading the responses to my ideas has made me look at
programming from a much wider angle. David Cuny is, in many ways, and EU
master and I have *a lot* to learn from him. Jiri, too, is very good.

Most of what we disagree about seems to be summed up as this: the
competition between what is neccessary for a compiler to function and
what is good for program readability and ease of debugging. I won't
bother to detail each and every issue, because there isn't a clear and
simple right/wrong answer to these issues, it is a matter of preference.

Again, I am sorry for being rude.

John.
