The power languages of the late 1960s and 1970s were awesome! I loved APL, InterLisp, Snobol-3, Smalltalk and SETL. Turtle Graphics with a robot turtle. Writing graphics for the Evans & Sutherland Picture System was awesome. Instead of C or Java we could build anything UCSD Pascal. But look around and you'll find all of these and more available now. Just ignore the blub languages and platforms!
