This is too true. Fortunately progress proceeds slowly nonetheless. For example C++ is much less used these days where it is totally and catastrophically inappropriate than in years past -- maybe because the true C++ boneheads have been promoted or are retiring... Nevertheless I was recently told by a new grad that I should translate one of my (working, no problems) python apps to C++ because C++ is "a higher level language." But I'm sure he'll fall in line with the next stream of lemmings rather than sink into the tarpit with the dinosaurs. -- Aaron Watters === Paradigms shift when the old guys retire. -- Kuhn (?) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
