I am very new to this group, so please don't flame me too badly if
this has been asked before.  I see this talk about extended PASCAL,
but it appears as though someone took PASCAL, added maybe 60% of the
features that can already be found in Ada, and proposed extended
PASCAL.  If Ada has most of these features already, why bother
reviving PASCAL?
