If anyone still cares about the original article, I will be glad to
translate it. It had some interesting points about COBOL's staying
power.

That would need to be a two way street. The US has been called every
name in the book by Europeans but if we respond we are being
unreasonable to our 'friends'. Or are we just having a cultural
misunderstanding when we take offense that someone spits in our face and
stabs us in the back?
