We got as far as S, then it took a step backwards to R. Now back to E? It seems like language Z is perpetually ten years away, and always will be.

Z has been around for 40 years. Used to have a book on it.

Well, that's a system of notation, not a programming language. And it's name isn't properly "Z", it's "Z notation". I'll admit Z++ is a candidate here, but I'm excluding it for it's overly eager "++". So, we may have VR, but until there's a properly compiled ( or even interpreted) Z language, I'm still waiting for the future to arrive :)
