Lets loop back to the original point. Getting rid of C won't get rid of security problems anymore than moving to java and .net got rid of needing to think about memory leaks. Those that think otherwise are ignorant of history, or choosing to ignore it. And it gets worse when you consider resource exhaustion, not just memory. There are entire mechanisms in .net and java whose sole purpose in life is to try and deal with resource exhaustion because the GC only deals with 1 aspect of that resource exhaustion (memory leaks). --- For those of us who watched that transition, it's obvious it won't work out the way people are claiming.
