New Some convergence perhaps
Re: Either that, or convince Date & Darwin that your pet language is the way to go.

Date and I chose [infix] because we thought it was better for teaching purposes, but we have had cause to regret it and would probably switch to prefix notation if we could start again from scratch.

-- Hugh Darwen

Perhaps you need to get out of the design and...into the implementation phase

I have started working on an XBase demo implementation of my proposed language, but keep dragging my feet when it comes to finishing it.

It would seem, therefore, that the three human impulses embodied in religion are fear, conceit, and hatred. The purpose of religion, one might say, is to give an air of respectibility to these passions. -- Bertrand Russell
