Ha! I can't say I've ever programmed in Fortran[1], but surely it too will perish... eventually. Idle meta-thought: It's actually kind of interesting how hard it is to replace "legacy" in programming... I wonder if there's something we could/should be doing to make it easier to do on a large scale?

[1] I think it's spelled that way these days, but of course given the context of the thread, maybe you're talking about old-school FORTRAN.
