>I've read the interview on Anders Heijlsberg, the C# Architect, and he was saying that Functional Programming is the way to go in the near future. Any idea about this one?

They first have to make a very good case about why dysfunctional programming has to go - what was wrong with it, how many million hours a year did it cost us, and whether the number of hours so wasted was greater than the number of hours wasted on BSODs.
