Just a note about security...

The language has very little to do with how secure an application is. It's
nice to have some stuff built in, but I can make two applications, one in ASP
and one in Java, and have the ASP application more secure than the Java one.
Just want to make sure people realize that writing something in Java doesn't
make it secure. You still gotta write the app with security in mind, I'm
afraid.
