I still laugh about the time I went to a Federal Job fair for Gov't and Contracting firms. There was a 20 something booth bunny with a HUGE sign that said her company was looking for COBOL programmers.
She was SURROUNDED by people old enough to be her parents and sometimes GRANDPARENTS. She was beginning to get a bit exasperated and exclaimed "NO! We're looking for ENTRY LEVEL COBOL PROGRAMMERS!" and we all said something like "Sweetie, they haven't taught COBOL in this country since you were in diapers. There ARE no Entry Level COBOLers!"

OK Tracy, let's do it together.
We need to find the old analysis tool "SPT"?
I did something like this a long time ago. It was used to calculate emissions for the EPA, I converted it to run on the HP3000. I think it did speed it up 10 times or so.
