Hello!
What's wrong with Jovial? We've built a great air traffic control
system around it. Too bad the hardware is old enough to vote.
The designer clearly demonstrated that he has few brain cells and none of them contain any
knowledge about structured programming languages or for that matter any of the design
principles that make Algol-60 what it is.
I don't remember enough of the details, but that much was immediately obvious by
inspection, and my conclusion was that I know all I need to know and I will never look for
more.
