I once wrote a complete shop floor control system for a large aerospace
company in pascal for a DEC/VAX environment and they are still using it,
some 12 years later.

Hi Jack, (not to be said near a TSA agent)

A couple of reasons.

1. I like Pascal better than C. Its easier to work with, and is less
prone to having bugs slip past the compiler.

2. Delphi is a very well designed development tool, and I like
Borland tools better than Microsoft's.

Sorry, but I wrote it in Pascal,

Hey Dean...being a software guy, I'm curious as to why the decision to
write it in Pascal? Thinking of Pascal takes me back to my college
days.
