in thread Informal Poll: why aren't you using traits?

I do know that the only language still in use today as old as LISP is FORTRAN.

Just a data point: my brother recently started a new job where he is learning COBOL for the first time.

He's a mainframe programmer of 25-30 years standing that spent most of his life in the airline bookings industry, but the jobs there have dwindled and mostly moved to the US; his new job is in the banking sector.

COBOL is probably the highest-level language he's had the opportunity to use in anger.
