Ian -- I'm honored for you taking the time to read through and comment. Your post (understandably) has the highest click-through of anything I linked. At first I was a bit taken back by the words myself (borrowed from the PSF [0]), but as you've pointed out, all of these languages have demonstrably changed the world through different aspects. Thank you for your insight and efforts in sparking the conversation.
