a "theoretical" love

Platonic? Seinfeld on Platonic Relationships (<< youtube warning)

(In the hope of lightening things up a bit.)

On the same light mood, I got a bit disappointed seing that you put Unix shell script in the same league as Windows BAT. Brrr, BAT is like Prometheus came and asked for Fire back or ... licensing rights. Bloody food? yikes!

But seriously, isn't profit (and cost-effectiveness) the only factor governing a free-market company? A choice of programming language based purely on style will kill that company off. I guess I hold a theoretical and idealised picture of this process because inefficient companies survive for years.
