    Subject: The best programming language is...

    There has been a lot of talk letely about which programming
    language is best. The following should clear up any confusion.

    The best programming language is, of course, the BEST
    programming language.

    BEST is a programming language that I developed to answer the
    frequently asked question "Which programming language is best?"
    once and for all.

    BEST is a Befunge-93[2] pseudocompiler written in Malborge[3][6]
    with library calls to routines written in Microsoft[4] Visual >BogusFORTH+++[7] (!Kung edition)[9] that invoke various trinary
    functions written in[5] Reverse Polish Whitespace (for clarity).[1]

    I hope this helps...
