More and more these days im seeing (SICP trained) programmers in responsable programming positions in the office with little or no working knowledge of BBCode, Its appauling.

Perhaps it's for the best. Do you really want some clueless all-theory-no-experience professor trying to teach something as complicated as BBCode? They'd make a mess of it. Unless you've been in the field and used BBCode for serious, mission-critical applications, you CAN'T teach it effectively. It's just not possible; there's too many subtle facets to BBCode that can only be realized by real-world experience. I say we let the students that are really serious about programming teach themselves BBCode, and then wait a few years until we have a sufficient pool of skilled teachers before we advocate teaching BBCode in the classroom.

How dare you imply sussman isn't well versed in BBcode. That is honestly one of the most insulting things I've heard suggested on this forum.

If HAKMEM had 1000 more items, one of them would be Sussman writing a perfect BBCode parser that solves every issue we have with Shiichan's and adds 30 more useful tags, written in 2 lines of ancient Lisp.

I have 20 years mapmaking experience making HUGE Maps that you couldnt even comprehend. I wrote Turret defense using Starforge when I was 12 years old.
You should just accept everything I say, I dont HAVE to give any reasons for my arguments because I am an EXPERT MAPMAKER.
