I heard there's a NEW thing coming out for the Web - I've seen
a beta test of it - that ALSO allows sophisticated work such as 
interactive user input, but runs MUCH more stable than Javascript 
(and certainly much more stable tha Java, which is only slightly less 
stable than Nitro Glysterine).  Not only that, but it has these advantages:

o  NO extra plugins needed!
o  Can run on (almost) ANY browser - finally, something for
   non-Netscape people!
o  Did I mention that it's more stable than Java and Javascript?

Anyway, this BRAND NEW, STATE-OF-THE-ART language is
called "PERL" (sounds like "pearl"); I assume that in a few months
there will be a book and/or websight about it.
