Well then, how come the following program seems to work perfectly well
(VAX V.2R2):

	program fred
	character*32 c
	namelist /joe/i,c,a
	i=123405
	a=1234.5
	c = 'institute for contemporary arts'
	write(8,joe)
	rewind(8)
	read(8,joe)
	end

upgrade schmupgrage i.e. namelist i/o works quite well, thank you ...
