I love OCaml. It's Lisp + syntax + type safety + speed. Lots of speed. Theoretically, I know that Lisp is a more expressive language, but I always find myself programming in OCaml anyway--perhaps just because the code is easier for me to read. I don't know why OCaml gets so little attention (and such bitter hatred from a few people), but maybe it's because its merits are mundane: it focuses on doing things right, rather than superficial coolness (Python) or lofty idealism (Haskell, Scheme). The result is a language that's very nice to use.
