Ada is also a good language. there are updates for gcc 3.x and I'm not
talkig about that old software GNAT3.14, thats *old*. Yes, we get
whooped by the great ada. Professional programmers still use it. Also, I
hear around that some people are getting forced to use it in college.

I was forced to use it in college, but that was 12 years ago... It
actually wasn't that bad. I certainly liked it better than Pascal...

Its really good compared to some of the languages out there. I still
like C and Ruby best. Ada95 is just fun There is a Ada2005 in the
process of beign made/release.
