in thread (OT) "Learn one new language every year"? Yeah, right.
My experiance differs. For instance, I spent a few days picking through OCaml a while back. I can't say I'm proficient in the langauge, but I did learn a lot about modern type systems (C and Java are not modern type systems). I'm sure I could pick up other things if I used the language every day for a few years, but even the little I did learn was valuable.
