Aughhhh!  I used to write a LOT of code in FORTRAN, and I know "where 
the bodies are
buried".  Ie. the kinds of things in FORTRAN that cause endless 
trouble.  The worst
is having unmatching common blocks in different parts of the code.  A 
compiler that
permits something like the C include statement goes a long way toward 
preventing
those.  There are a few more things that either don't translate well or 
lead to other
difficulties.  There is an f2c converter program that might be useful.
