Honestly, I can only think of three words in reply to that. WTF?
We're not talking about the stylistics of Ancient Egyptian art or the evolution of the galaxy. In 11 years the landscape of the programming language world can change entirely. And since 1997 it has done so. This is absolutely the number one worst ever post on slashdot. Trying to tell us that we might be learning Cobol next is like going to a paleontology conference and telling everyone that they're going to have to study the Bible next. The only thing it does is make you look ignorant.
