    Which programming language to use on your tombstone?[^]. At the moment I am thinking Forth but am still trying to work out some suitable code. [Edit] I think :Goodbye 42 Emit 8 Emit CR ; .Goodbye [/Edit] What would be your choice?

            I chose VB because it just won't die... :) If Gone And Name <> forgotten Then Dead = True

            It was broke, so I fixed it.

                            At first, I thought of goto hell; but that was taken. Then thought of Dispose() and that was taken too. So had to think of something else. This is what I could do for now:

                            new GodlyConnection("Server=heaven;Database=souls;Trusted_Connection=True;").Open();

                                c++ must be the most poignant:

                                ~Keith();

                                It even looks bleak somehow. Though this might be good (c#):

                                for (var what in death.sleep)
                                {
                                what = "dreams";
                                }

                                    Duh! God is omnipotent so He'd know where the connection was coming from without the need for credentials. :-D

                                      It's a trusted connection.

                                        C would make a nice epitaph, and a bit of humor as well:

                                        cout << 'Goodbye, world!'

                                        Yeah, yeah. This is C#, not C. I'm a VB programmer, for crying out loud; what do I know? As for the trailing semicolon, this would be the last statement in the program, correct? As I recall, that makes the semicolon optional. ;P

                                          Ah, but in which language? I mean, that looks very much like a C++ ; to me.
