I find that S-expressions are the best syntax for programming languages. And in general infix operators are inferior to either prefix or postfix notation.

In case you haven't heard, Factor just had a new stable release, and is tons of fun for postfix enthusiasts.

Thanks, i hadn't heard oft Factor before, it looks interesting. I'm more of a LISP and FP Person but always wanted to properly learn a stack based language, Factor seems like a nice alternative to Forth for that purpose.
