Mi Chiamo Luanne. Come tu chiami? Those were the first phrases on the chalkboard in my 10-week intensive Italian class at Instituto Italiano Scuola in San Francisco. I figured I'd study Italian to prepare for my first trip to Italy in September per il mio grosso compleanno (for my big birthday). Apart from making sure my mother and I board the right trains (don't want to end up like Billy Hayes on the Midnight Express to Turkey) and shell out the right amount of euro for the gondola, I was inspired by research showing that learning second Languages can combat Alzheimer's. I already experience what my friend, Dick Weaver, calls youngsheimers , those frightful pre-senior moments of not remembering it was my turn to carpool the girls to soccer, or the name of my favorite Greek restaurant in Jackson Square. Oh, yeah, Kokkari . That's it! Amazing lamb chops. We're told that in our 40s, the brain starts shrinking and there's a loss in neuron connection.

Yes, music, too, can be a language. Just ask kids who dread those piano lessons. A study ...

The late sixties and seventies saw an explosion of programming Languages but then we went through a consolidation . I am still grateful that Java saved me from C++, but I like the renewed interest in other Languages. Languages with following include Ruby ('95), Python ('91) and Erlang ('87) as well as newer additions like Groovy ('03) and Scala ('03). Paul certainly likes Scala, here is his JavaOne Jersey Demo in Scala . Many of these Languages are using our trusty JVM, now under Open Source . That can simplify development and adoption, so maybe we will have another golden age of Programming Languages! ...
