Only you, Terry. ;)

If anyone is really interested in Cobol, and if even if you aren't, be
shocked and amazed that some poor bastard had to implement CobolScript. Fits
into the Windows glove just like VBScript, ECMAScript, PerlScript and
PythonScript.

Something to scare the kids with at night, anyway.

  "Little Johnny, you could be hacking Cobol just like grandpa..."

  "But grandpa has cerebral lacerations from multiple self-inflicted
  beatings due to the Great Madness of December 2000!"

  "Well, thank your dearly departed grandmother's grave - and the many we
  lost to the Java plague - that you're not hacking in C#, okay?"

  "Daddy, I'm scared."

  "That's what I said when they took me to Tcl classes."
