All languages are fucking terrible. There are thousands of the them
because some people bump into a feature they don't like and run off an
make another fucking terrible language. For the love of God, please
don't be one of those people. The rest of us find languages we can
abide and do productive things with using features we like and avoiding
those we don't. I've always felt it was no small miracle the vendors
managed to agree to ODBC/JDBC driver specs (even though the SQL language
definition is "more like guidelines"). Go scream at the DOM and JavaScript.
