Javascript isn't a programming language so much as it's the language spoken by G-d and the angels.

A lonely thread gathers dust on the front page.
Nobody mentions COBOL.
Nobody mentions Applescript.
Nobody mentions Inform 7.
The seer bites into a poison apple. A single tear rolls down his cheek.

COBOL. I know this was mentioned, but that's what it was designed for. Its level of popularity also demonstrates the need for a programming language that resembles plain English.
