    GEORGE II JCL on an ICL 1904S, followed quickly by the assembler on the same machine. My first compiled language was FORTRAN IV.

    I have a friend who worked at some laboratory in texas U. and he programs using FORTRAM IV because of its quick maths. He programs subroutines for some of the Mars missions for NASA...

    He's a cool guy too, all in all, and an aerospace engineer.
