But I still think its a hard problem. There are many constraints on a language and the inertia for science applications is immense. The risk of failure is more than most application scientist can tolerate. (eg, I recently heard of a code that decided to use python, which does not sound risky to me, but it takes 2 hours for python to load on 64K cores. There are many failure modes in this business)</blockquote>
