 DW> I don't think we should emphasize the "learning environment" aspect of
 DW> BASIC. Doing that implies that it's a kiddie's language which real men
 DW> don't use. Once they get that idea, people tend to move off to learn
 DW> something else - which is probably a whole lot *less* useful to them.
 DW> In reality, BASIC is a very practical language in which to write really
 DW> useful programs. I still use a lot of them that I wrote way back in
 DW> the early 1980s. Let's try to get people to realize how useful BASIC is
 DW> *as a programming language*, not just as a learning tool!
As well as the fact that it is a great learning tool..
