Yeah, and ColdFusion was never going away, either. VRML was the wave of the future and Flash will revolutionize the web. There are very few things that will never go away:
But, we all know that COBOL will make a come back ;).
I chose the computer science field simply for the fact that there is always something new to learn. I have found it easy to move from one language to the next as long as you adapt your mindset. Anyone who argues whether one language is better than another and how long it will be around needs to approach the subject with an open mind (which I am very pleased to find Muntant doing). Each language has a specific job, even field, it is good for. If I find myself in doubt, I learn both :).

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
