Good point! I remember taking a COBOL class back in '79 while getting my computer science degree...professor said it was obsolete even back then. I knew, even though I was an extremely skilled programmer, that I didn't want to program as a career. Roll the clock forward to Y2K, and I know of a few people that made a FORTUNE reviewing COBOL code...it was child's play for big buck$ and they haven't needed a job since. Think outside the sphere...
