MS's replacement for JS

http://channel9.msdn.com/posts/Anders-Hejlsberg-Introducing-TypeScript
Well it looks like Anders took the sensible approach, dont replace JS with an entirely new language like Google is trying to do with Dart because it will never win. But rather translate a statically typed class based language into existing JS compilers. JS is a great language to port languages to, as far as I know it is probably the most popular language for doing this. So it will be interesting to see how the optional type system holds up to large scale apps.

On the other hand the main popularizer of Pascal, Philippe Kahn, looks purely Jewish. So we have:
Alan Kay - JEW
Lev Vygotsky - JEW
Seymour Papert - JEW
Jean Piaget - JEW or HALF-JEW
Jerome Bruner - JEW
Noam Chomsky - JEW
John McCarthy - JEW
Karl Popper - JEW
Marvin Minsky - JEW
Terry Winograd - JEW
Gerald Sussman - JEW
Philippe Kahn (inventor of Delphi and Turbo Pascal) - JEW
Andrei Alexandrescu (inventor of D) - JEW
Guid van Rossum (inventor of Python) - HALF-JEW
Brendan Eich (inventor of JavaScript) - JEW
Andi Gutmans and Zeev Suraski (inventors of PHP) - JEWS
