APL and Prolog/Datalog are local optimums in programming languages. When you enter their domains, you are limping in every other language. It's almost better not to know about them because you can avoid constant "there is a better way" in the back of your head.
I think we should just bite the bullet and make them into standard domain specific languages available in every language and environment.
