I don't think anybody can use the full scope of C, even with
assistance.  What I see in the Linux kernel may be taking me in C
directions I've never seen before (with 20 yrs experience behind me),
but I suspect there are even more clever innovations right around the
corner.  

Why on earth would you _not_ want to use an expressive document markup
language?  Why on earth would a simple HOWTO aspire to exhausting it?
Anyone remember my Guiness bet?
