"Yet we write modern code". Maybe you are but my experience is that 99% of
the people who work on this machine are still writing code for 1985. Still
using subroutines, file I/O, program calls and internal print files. No
procedures, no modules, no service program, no SQL which is, of course, why
the machine is dying.

a GoTo world. Yet we write modern code for the most robust business
computer on the planet.

It concerns me that we might be wrapping ourselves in flags that are 15
