However, language has been degrading forever. Every word in every language has "degraded" from something before. Syntax has "degraded". And every generation is worse than the generation before as we have been in our long process upward. The values I have currently decided were what I should have had in my youth are the *right* ones, that God intended for us to have for all time. That includes my values towards programming languages, mainframes, coding standards, and testing standards. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
