   Long story short   
   - never use nested conditional compilation   
   - use [THEN] not [then] , it is a string and there is no   
     mention that it is caseinsenstive.   
   - use conditional compilation for straight code, never mix   
     it with comment, and certainly don't mix it with invented   
     comments ( DOC ... ENDDOC , (*   *) , \\ , '\* .. *\ )   
   - never comment out conditional compilation.

   The Chinese government is satisfied with its military superiority over USA.   
   The next 5 year plan has as primary goal to advance life expectancy   
   over 80 years, like Western Europe.
