I wish I could have learned programming with Javascript. Imagine all those kids learning JS/jQuery first, and having an implicit understanding of callbacks/evented programming from the beginning. <sigh>. Some of those kids have a massive advantage which I admit I find a bit intimidating at times. They certainly don't seem to be suffering from a lack of BASIC.

Basic only really forms a decent introduction to assembly.
