D00dl3: LOL! that's all marketing dude. i can't believe you would actually write that to me. Do you hate me?
Zoomz: that is just true.
D00dl3: every company says their thing is secure my grandma is secure.
Zoomz: did you ever hear of a virus written in java?
D00dl3: no.
Zoomz: Did you ever hear of a virus exploiting a java application?
D00dl3: no.
Zoomz: well then. would you be in this port trouble today if you had written in java originally?
D00dl3: no. but what about fast, robust, simple, and dynamic? that's where you really sink low bro.
Zoomz: you're right-that's all marketing hoo-hoo. not that it isn't true, but like so is C++ C# VB C Ada Eiffel Lisp Delphi
D00dl3: You don't have to convince me. I can learn it or lose my job to some 14 year old whippersnapper. How did i get to feel so old and i'm not even 25? I need to learn it and i want to learn it because i know it is an important language now so it doesnt matter. So just how do i do that so i can get back to Never Winter Nights?
