Now that I am learning PHP to do it you tell me...

umm why are all mentions of PHP being downvoted? i might not understand completely, but that seems like a puerile thing to do.

It's not the mention of PHP, it's the tone of the comment.

Tone is hard to interpret without a tone.

I'm writing a PHP interpeter in Java to render COBOL, which'll execute on COBOL on COGS.

I forgot to mention the top level will all be written in XML, so it can be used on the semantic web to provide a service oriented architecture.

But, next week, I'll be starting a project to design a middleware system based on a LISP repl. The foundation will be written in C and assembly. The dynamic portion will follow Steele's CL standard, although it'll be able to compile select portions to machine code during runtime, if necessary.

Since LISP is equivalent to the parse tree, it'll provide the RPC IDL so programs written in Haskell can communicate with programs written in Erlang, all seamlessly across a cluster or grid with a parallelization mechanism based on the STM model.

Joke explained:

The original comment made a joke that mentioned PHP. It got downvoted. I thought I would make a joke myself based on the idea that it got downvoted because it mentioned PHP.

Then, something went horribly wrong.
