For those who read the comments before the content, ABORT ABORT! It's not even worth your time to read about why it's not worth your time.

Agreed.

Also -- ASP is not a language, unless they're talking about VBScript, which I would have thought would be lumped with VB.

That didn't bother me. I think there's a legit argument to be made for classic ASP as its own language. The lack of distinction between .NET and pre-.NET languages was the irksome bit for me. Edit: But far from the only irksome bit, hence my warning to others. :)
