erlang is not easy. At least, not for me, a mere mortal.

  ok let me elaborate - it is "easier" to do parallel programming on erlang compared to other languages

    I know this. I watched a video on this whole argument not long ago...link is floating around on YC somewheres.

      well then why complain?

  I bet that's just because you're not used to it. Neither am I, but I get a strong feeling that the concepts that Erlang lets you program in terms of are extremely powerful for writing efficient, correct code for multi-CPU systems.
