Now this I find hysterically funny.  From the moment I first heard
about PHP, my thought was "dang; it looks like what they're doing here
is *encouraging* crappy programming."  I don't think anybody likes an
overly fascistic programming language, but it does seem to be be true
that when language designers give coders enough rope, they respond not
only by hanging themselves, but slaughtering the equivalent of a small
city's worth of programmers who have to clean up afterwards.
