I rather thought that -- for a change -- we had a rather different 
discussion, e.g. why some people prefer C over C++ (William original 
stated that he considered himself rather a C programmer than a C++ 
programmer). That caught my interest because I always thought that 
hardly anyone used C instead of C++ (unless outer circumstances dictated 
that C must be used). In my eyes this looks as if someone bought a Audi 
TT and contented himself never to drive faster than 80kmh/50mph (case in 
point: my professor :-)

You mean Java beats C++'s standard allocator, don't you? SCNR, but I 
don't want to start another flame war (this has already gone to far IMHO).

Didn't caught it until you pointed it out. Nice one. Doesn't mean that I 
agree, though, since I hear from more and more people that they use a 
multitude of programming languages in a single project. Makes me feel 
like a relict.
