Some praise for D

Hi all --

You might all remember my blog posts using D to write an 
assembler for the Intel 8080 CPU. I woke up this morning to a 
nice email from a stranger who had told me he had read through 
those blog posts and liked them so much that he ported (and 
extended) the assembler to Python. You can read the full blog 
post here:

But I'd just like to pick out a nice little line from the post 
about D.
"The code in his posts is written in D (also known as Dlang), a 
system programming language in the C family I didn’t even know 
existed. But D is so readable, and Brian’s commentary so good, 
that his published D code is as effective as pseudocode."

A nice little nod to D.
