Joey, the hoo-hah over Amanda is due to the fact that she is HAWT. Fortunately, I know also that she is quite nice.
Being a bit of a dead-programming-language enthusiast, I was jealous when I first hear about this, but if Lisp, C++, and PostScript are as dead a languages as he got into, I dunno. It still sounds like a fun presentation. You guys got the happening scene up there. But a presentation called "Fun With Dead Languages" having no mention of say, Forth or Prolog or even Pascal, let alone Jorf or Ceemac? I dunno.
It's a big day when you make the cover of the blogging tabloids!
Damian Conway in my opinion used the humor and "shock factor" by being provocative (c'mon the languages are not dead, maybe except his own: SPECS) to demonstrate how confusing syntax could make you wish the language was dead. What he was trying to showed was how he's smart and crazy and how Perl 6 is gonna be soooooooooooo awesome (according to him of course).
