These Rust trolls (at least I hope, for your sake, that you are trolling here and not serious) are getting annoying.

One would wonder how we managed to cope before Rust. Also, you should ask these guys [1] [2] how they know they're using memory safely. Has Rust ever been used to fly aircraft and fricking space shuttles? I didn't think so.
