If this ain't good PR for D, I don't know what is:

I agree - I posted some code I was working on into IRC, in a channel with basically zero D programmers, and mentioned "How many lines are run at compile-time vs runtime?". People with no D experience got the answer right first try.

D is extremely easy to pick up (at least the basics) for someone with C++ experience, in my opinion.

Programming novices (ie, 90% of of professional programmers, ever since "java houses" and the web) and HR personnel don't understand that the vast majority pf programming skills are easily transferable between languages. They think it's all like Chinese vs French.
