When I hear stuff like "sure pascal is cool but lack of good string
support", I think that it is more self explanatory then anything.

At the local open source community I'm a known evangelist for Object
Pascal, and my blog is full of code, text etc, regarding stuff in object
pascal.
Some of the people over here that actually started using FPC/Lazarus
arrived due to my blog posts, so spreading the word is very important imho.
