I'm working on a thesis on imperative languages, and it would be nice to have a "reference" to back up the observation that these linguistic dinosaurs are still far from extinction. Also, please reply by e-mail; I normally don't read these groups. Thanks! -- -- Phil -- -- Phil Pfeiffer UUCP: ...!{harvard,seismo,topaz,akgua,allegra,usbvax}!cs.wisc.edu!pfeiffer (608) 262-6625
