So sad. Not that they flee C++ for other languages, but sad for the other
languages they flee to. When I fled C++ I went to Modula 3. It's
really too bad the user community for Modula 3 is so small. My only
complaint about it is its wordy syntax. Where it matters --
semantics, speed, reliability, and static checking -- it's just fine.
No, I'm not suggesting rewriting monotone in Modula 3.
