Some nonsense reason about "endangering my soul and sanity" or something.)

Well, if Miskatonic U's library is giving you short shrift, I suppose you'll have to wait 'til 2007 for volumes 4A, 4B, and 4C. Just like the rest of us mortals.

Though frankly, I want volumes 6 and 7.

Oh, and my vote's for Lisp.

Actually, I managed to hack into Illwinter's top secret development machine (both the user-name and password was "TopGod") and download the source-code to Dominions II - and it turns out that it's actualy written in Lisp! Who would have thunk it?

To prove my claim, here is the Last five lines of the source-code:

well Im willing to learn anything GNU. GNU MDK supports MIX and MIXAL http://www.gnu.org/software/mdk/mdk.html

Other than that I like free and multiple platform so my vote is for BASIC
(remember me? Im the guy who tests/plays whatever no one else is using to prove its still useful)
