There are also PL researcher who are enamored with dynamic languages. Alan Kay probably doesn't care much about static types.

Indeed, Gilad Bracha isn't a fan of static type systems.

Given that both Kay and Bracha are U if Utah PhDs, then it must be a Utah thing :) seriously, it is too easy to find lots of researchers on the dynamic side.
