in reply to COBOL vs. Perl
I recognize this. I had a course recently where I learned Cobol. I was constantly thinking. "I can redo everything in Perl and SQL in about the half of the time!"

Uggh - I took a COBOL class for CS majors my last semester
of college. It was instructed by the teacher that taught
CGI Progamming with Perl (which I attended a year before).
Imagine the utter pointless-ness. When it came time to do
the last program - my brain shut down from shear abuse.
I took a C instead and graduated a happier man. | [reply] [Watch: Dir/Any] |
