My vote is for dropping the language discussion at this point.
The diatribes are getting to heavy, and the contributions to the
needs of most Apple owners' knowledge base are minimal.  Most
decent Apple program development is done in assembly language.
Most home users find AppleSoft sufficient for their programming
needs.  Neither C nor Pascal/Modula have much utility for "the 
rest of us".  Although I have been a programmer for over 30 years, 
I admit that I can't make any linguistic evaluations at the level
the discussion has now reached.  I am not sure that the various
authors can either.
