Well all the radio commercials are calling it "The Holiday season" and "Gifts for the Holidays" instead of openly saying C++mas or Javakkuh or even Kwanzaa.
I blame those guys promoting those 4th level languages with more verbosity and higher amounts abstraction. It's obviously led to the generalization of the holidays.
Though - I suppose thats what the assembly programmers were saying about me last year...
I'd say perl, but I could see a useful calandar with this.
1 - Use Python Where More Appropriate 2 - Use C Where More Appropriate 3 - Use Java Where More Appropriate 4 - Use PHP Where More Appropriate 5 - Use C Where More Appropriate 6 - Use C# Where More Appropriate 7 - If you are still using Perl at this point, give up programming 8 - If you are still using Perl at this point, give up programming

This year you are being visited by three ghosts.
The ghost of preprocessor directives.
The ghost of just-in-time debugging.
And finally...
The ghost of lazy evaluation.
