When I saw this question, I thought it was going to mean "Why are you (the reader) still here, i.e. in an IDL newsgroup?" I had never heard of the Julia ( http://julialang.org ) language before last week, but since then I've come across multiple references to it as the next hip programming language for scientists. So though I have no plans to give up on IDL, I am feeling a bit unfashionable.
