so what is the perfect programming language?

Lately I've really been enjoying Scala. Sure, it's not perfect (runs on the JVM, with expected overhead issues) but I do like how it marries functional and object-oriented programming in a very usable way that took a C-trained programmer like me a few days to really feel at home in.
If perfect means perfect in every way, there isn't one. But of all the languages I have worked with much, I'm enjoying Scala as much as C, and I'm sure nostalgia for my first useful language affects my opinion of C.
This is purely from a joy-of-programming standpoint, not taking into account efficiency of compiled code etc.
