Writing code in "energy efficient" languages is the funniest thing  
I've heard in a while. It ranks up there with setting my desktop  
wallpaper to black because "it uses less energy."

More servers are required because more people are writing webapps  
because Ruby and PHP make it easier for more people to do it. Is there  
even a C webapp framework available?
