Classic. :) If familiarity breeds contempt, the language probably has
issues. It seems like you fall in love with good languages the more
you use them.

I worked on a distributed test tool that had chosen TCL as it's
scripting language, simply because the testers already knew it, and I
ended up detesting it (how I felt about it then:

Anyway, kudos to those guys for making the right call.
