Yeah, though they're really not inventing their own language (that  
honour does indeed go to Kurtz). Maybe we need to petition Kurtz to  
put some more effort into his facial hair in the off chance that it  
will help grow the BASIC market in general (which will help RB).

Although Aaron is taking over compiler duty, so it might be worth his  
while growing a mo.

Finally, I don't normally make fun of people's English, but I  
particularly like the sentence in this article about the inventors of  
C all having very nice BEARS.
