I know there has been a lot of response to this letter, but I figured I might as well get my two cents in. In my schooling, my first language was Pascal, followed by Fortran.
In my opinion, Pascal is a very good language to start out with. It teaches you good structuring techniques and syntax rules that follow you through any language you learn.
