You shouldn't be -- I don't think I've seen anyone talk much about this before, at least not from this angle. It's something that worries me frequently -- I feel guilty when I introduce Python into ("force Python upon") an organization. Because I hate having /other/ people's favorite toy languages forced down /my/ throat ... I also notice I forget one language after doing another for a few weeks. And it's not just brackets and semicolons -- I also try to use one language's idioms in the other. People who /claim/ they have no trouble switching languages seem to have the same problem. I refuse to think that Using One Language For Everything is the solution. But I cannot explain it rationally. /Jorgen -- // Jorgen Grahn <jgrahn@ Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu \X/ algonet.se> R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
