I don=92t need to program in it that often =96 I maintain one moderately-sized script which hardly ever changes - but when I need to re-visit it, I find that I can pick it up again easily, unlike whatever moving-target language the cool kids are using this week. It also doesn=92t hurt that Ousterhout=92s book is a model of clarity.
