in reply to Other programming language I most often use

Would people please stop counting SQL as a programming language? It has no if's, else's, for's, or while's. It is a language, like HTML, but not a programming language.

Anyway, I miss programming in LISP for AutoCAD...

Update:Didn't mean to start a war, but I should'a known better :)
Yes, I'm well aware that extensions to SQL have 'programming language' features (hence the PL in PL/SQL), but SQL by itself doesn't. That's what we have Perl and DBI for :-)
