c has many unspecified and undefines, all for the flexibility of the language, so that it can be used to solve many different problems.

not that i'm well versed in c, but with so many security holes in almost everything, maybe c should become much tighter or maybe a different lang. should be tried for all these things to be built on. 

yes, speed, time to market, etc., but ... man a new exploit every week if not two or three...

i guess nothing would be perfect... just thinking out loud, so to write.

Thanks Eric for the explanation.
