	Do you want a fast, powerful language like C, or do you want
a hand-holding, slow language like Pascal?  May I submit that Modula-2
or ADA might be just what you are looking for.  They have type checking and
array bounds policing galore.  Please do not subject the rest of us to
your unneccessary overhead.
