hear, hear! this is what i am screaming about all the time:
requiring each newcomer to perform leap of faith even before he
felt in love with D! ;-)
btw, i'm using D exclusively for all my programming tasks
(including scripts i used to write in sh ;-) for several years
now, and i still have to stop and thing where to put that "@"
sometimes. 'cause it is impossible to deduce, and i am very bad
in memorizing arbitrary non-logical things.
