This is just a short note to thank the 25+ replies that I received in
the mail concerning my question about the "life" of Pascal.

In short: Pascal is used almost exclusively for teaching structured
          programing skills. In the "real" world, other languages
          (mainly C(?)) are used.  

I would like to here from anyone who would care to reply about just
which languages are still in use in Day To Day programing.  In other
words, what should I endeavor to learn before I try to convince someone
to hire me.

Again, thanks.
