Now they've modified their posting to be redundant:
# Excellent knowledge of C++, C#
# Knowledge of a procedural language
They are implying that C++ and C# are not procedural programming languages. Yes, they're object oriented, but they're still procedural too... C++ and C# sure as hell are not functional languages (e.g. haskell, erlang) nor logic languages (e.g. prolog), nor are they imperative languages without function calls (e.g FORTRAN before 1958, some assembly languages). </pedantic>
