Why do so many questions get posted in 'languages' when they've sod all to do with language?

Good point, I have no idea why this is the catch-all category. On reflection I guess if the Yahoo category selector cannot figure out where something should go, then the programmers probably decided if something doesn't fit anywhere else then it should default to being tossed into "languages" since the program cannot automatically understand foreign languages, and if it does not recognize any keywords it is probably in a language the program does not know.
