   I don't consider myself a greybeard, I'm a bit too young for that, but I   
   was took the very last class that our college offered on FORTRAN 77. I   
   quite enjoyed that class, I even wrote some programs to calculate physics   
   problems I had in another class and even submitted the program there as my   
   answer. The professor had a good laugh seeing FORTRAN still used, and by a   
   young student.
