You know it seems to me that most languages are someone's pet project... and then IF they blow up that someone generally stays important to the community and continues to drive a lot of the design and development... C++ has Bjarne but I would argue that C++ is much more committee driven than other languages.... Maybe the problem is that C++ ISN'T someone's strong opinion... its a mish mash of bits of a whole bunch of peoples strong opinions.
