    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";
                              }

                                      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.
