well yes, it was meant as a joke ..... that's *usually* what a ";-)" means.

That being said ..... what *is* the difference between coding a website -
major or otherwise - in an "old-fashioned" compiled language and a
non-compiled language, except for the amount of hoursepower and memory you

latest-and-greatest, however it's currently defined by the geek fashion
police.
