And no, I don't mean that in a bad way at all.  C++, for all it's 
features, isn't all its cracked up to be, and C works just as well if 
you know what you're doing.  I'm not saying that you C coders are stupid 
or anything like that ;)  In fact, although I consider myself a C++ guy, 
for Blender I've learned that C really is better.  In some cases.
