Gads - I had to poke around in some COBOL programs just last week. You're right, there'll still be COBOL programs running when the first computer is a fossilized artifact buried 100 feet underground.

I've been an ERP consultant for the past 13 years. Most peculiar job I ever had was collecting pine resin, $40 for 40 ounces.
