    from the article:

    "On the first lesson, we were told that we would be learning a language called CESIL. This wasn't any kind of a real language that anyone used to really do things with, from what I recall, but some synthetic language purely for the purposes of education (or perhaps places on real comp.sci courses were already getting oversubscribed, and CESIL was deployed to send lesser students running gibbering and screaming into the hills, vowing never to go near a drop of code ever again)."

    lol. When I was at university I thought the same thing about PASCAL.

    What a fucking brilliant game - man those missiles got difficult to dodge as the levels counted up! I must have worn out 3 QuickShot 2s on that bad mofo.
