Now that you've mentioned it:

Adam Sah has a revised version of his "Tcl Considered Harmful" at:
<ftp://ginsberg.cs.berkeley.edu:/pub/papers/asah/tcl-fear.html>
( The original was part of the Stallman "Why you should not use Tcl"
gnu.misc.discuss thread. )

I have some links to that, Wayne Christopher's comparisons, Adam Sah's
online papers, and a few other bits of that argument ( or was it a
"negation" ? ) at:
<http://minsky.med.virginia.edu/sdm7g/LangCrit/Tcl/>

... Which is part of the Programming Language Critiques page at :
<http://minsky.med.virginia.edu/sdm7g/LangCrit/>

... Which I haven't widely advertised until now, as I'm trying to squeeze
in time to finish construction of that page and clean up and reorganize
some of the "agents" stuff on my WWW-server.
