I'd say the easiest language is not the one learned first but the one programmer is curently using. It's the same thing as with text/word editors. The one I am using now conTEXT is the best for me but I am sure if I were to use UltraEdit or my previous favourite MultiEdit, they would carry the "best for me" tag.
My first language way back in the early 70's was FORTRAN, followed by HP BASIC, 6502 assembler, FORTH and many others. I always maintaned that once one learns first computer language one is ready to easily learn the rest. It's just a simple matter of adapting to slightly different syntax and keywords.
