Quote - I asked SM to let me write Poser from scratch in Fortran - a very conventional language with no bugs. I asked for $1 million. They refused.

Much better do it in PL/I, Fortran is a subset of PL/I. PL/I includes Fortran, Cobol and Algol and is the master of all languages far superior to C and is 100% IBM genuine, nothing much better for an IBM PC.

Stupidity also evolves!
