Sb: #4901-Is Basic out of date?

Mike,
  Actually, I was supporting Basic! I think, at least for me, quick projects
are best done when completed in Basic. Other projects are best done in C when
the Libraries are only available in C (and this, mostly on other computers).
  Some basics are slower than a turtle, on the other hand, others are as quick
as other languages.
  I think the person's use of any language is what they are comfortable with
and what works, and as I mentioned in the other message, I doubt seriously that
Basic will become "passe'", as was remarked.
