Re: Why use PHP? What are the disadvantages?

Feel free to update the analogy for RPG from sinking ship to eroding
shoreline.

RPG will always be a first love! But while I am only allowed one wife,
multiple programming languages is a very nice thing!

Yeah, I know, COBOL has been a "sinking ship" for...what...20 years
now? RPG will no doubt still be around to keep COBOL company.

Mostly because that is a debate I'm bored with Kelly.

I agree - RPG (like COBOL) will be around for a long, long time.
