Yes. There's not a lot else you can really say to that.

Um...

"Bash is a type of Shell Script. Shell scripting languages are mostly 
intended for automating system tasks, as opposed to offering truly 
dynamic programming abilities."

"Forth is a Stack Computing Language. Basically the language represents 
two virtual stacks to accomplish algorithms."

"Java is one of the first truly object oriented languages."

"PHP is a hypertext preprocessor."

"Perl is a command line language similar to C, and Shell Script."

"Ruby is a multi-paradigm language with syntax similar to Perl. It is 
often compared to Java in as much as both languages borrow 
object-oriented syntax pioneered by small talk."

"Tcl, like Perl, and other scripting languages, is an interpreted 
scripting language designed mostly for console use. It is extensible 
through high level languages like Java."

...still think it's accurate? :-P
