Anyway we stopped teaching Fortran to our aerospace
undergraduates here in 1997 on feedback from industry.
We teach freshmen only Matlab, HTML, Excel, C and bit of Java.
So when those JPL guys retire, that's it for the fortran orbiters.

Time to reconsider -- in time we'll be doing matlab rickshaws, and the
rest of the world fortran orbiters! :(

Seriously, when a student does matlab ode12(...), will he learn what
makes them tick, or how to fix them!? The signs are ominous, just visit
matlab ng. It's like blind leading blind - painful to watch!
