*I* would stop you.  Friends don't let friends write in COBOL.

That's the funniest thing I've read today. You literally just woke my mum up by making my laugh. Thanks! :-D

I would be the last who wanted to spoil such a good joke.
But... tell me please, ANYONE, who takes part in this inspiring exchange:
How many COBOL programs have you written in your life?
How many programs in Cobol have you actually SEEN?
