From an IRC exchange:

< MGP> First Program in FORTRAN Runs (1954) today in history
> And that program is probably still running somewhere today

I know this probably makes me broken or something, but I have a fondness for Fortran. It was the first real (read: compiled) language I learned. I've completely forgotten it in the last 17 years. I still remember when I took a C++ based class. I was in horror. Operators should NEVER be overloaded. But that's a rant for another day. Today is Fortran's day.

"Operators should NEVER be overloaded."

Yeah, a stupid idea that has gotten even stupider with time, as people realize how difficult it makes the code to understand.
