  You’d better believe it, I’ve coded in both.
  Not many of us left…
  Let alone those who are even old enough to understand the joke. :-)

  Nice one, Larry.

  Fortran anyone? Five characters on the sign -so maybe 4TRAN.

  I have a similar non-geek photo lined up some time soon – just as soon as the light’s right . . .

  COBOL?!? The commodore pet was available in two versions, one with BASIC in ROM and the other with PASCAL in ROM.

  COBOL and DBAs are where programmers go to die. I mourn the souls of those lost.

  Actually, it does illustrate what I first thought when I saw Alan’s picture. “Why does Alan like BASIC so much?”

  Ok, one more, but it’s not a programming language.

  Brings back memories! Coded FORTRAN, BASIC and COBOL for about 15 years before switching to DB management/reporting for the remainder of my career. Retired in 2003.
