Suggested change: use Erlang

Reason:
Erlang combines functional programming and the pi calculus,
each based on mathematics and logic. It's a really
interesting academic field, I'd love to work on that sort of
thing if I were a professor, but it has no practical
applications, especially with teams of ordinary programmers
who don't have Ph.D's in mathematics.
