Can This Man Spark a Renaissance for the Smalltalk Programming Language?

When it comes to programming languages, Smalltalk is about as old as it gets: It was first developed in 1969, with the first stable release coming out by 1980
Doesn't a renaissance require it to have been something before?

Smalltalk was the best choice of language at the time when it was introduced, If fact it was very popular when MVC was introduced at the part of GUI developemnt. But then getting quickly died and swallowed by Java and .Net languages. Being expense has also add factor for being failed. So should it worth to renaissance again? I don't think so, the competition is so high right now with languages such as Java, .Net. Javascript,... being multiple platforms, Web... would add more factor too.
