I had a student in my Object Oriented Perl course yesterday tell me that his employer won't let him use *any* "object oriented" languages, because they build embedded systems that have to be FAA certified, and FAA will only certify if you've done a complete call-flow analysis.
So instead, he has to do all his work in C (!!!!). Gack. Like that's any better?

I thought FAA was into Ada95? C surely seems like a huge step backwards.
