[net.news.group] Second the motion for net.lang.f77

padpowell@wateng.UUCP (PAD Powell [Admin]) (11/20/83)

I have been surprised at the number of neanderthals (or perhaps they
are up to cro-magnon by this time) living here at Waterloo.

Me Learn Fortran.  Me Want Fortran.  Ugh.

So, please help these semi-literate savages,  and
help them find out that there are other people around who feel the
same way.

	OK so FORTRAN is a fossil--there are lots of us whose jobs depend
on our being part-time paleontologists.

	Record my vote for net.lang.f77.  How about net.lang.f8x ( :-) ?)
