  • COBOL gets a hip replacement

    From pete dashwood@21:1/5 to All on Fri Jan 15 15:09:41 2021
    It has been a considerable while since I actually wrote and published
    anything COBOL related.

    Given we are starting a New Year, and given the inexplicable surge of
    interest on the PRIMA web site... (some of it is definitely bots, but
    there have also been more Human clicks and I don't know why...), I
    thought I might try and stoke the fire a bit... :-)

    If you'd like to see my latest effort, it's here: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/cobol-gets-hip-replacement-peter-e-c-dashwood/?trackingId=I0inNl2yTnKgL5AoM9PUNw%3D%3D

    Please comment on LinkedIN or here if you want to say anything.

    If you could forward to interested parties I'd be much obliged.

    Cheers,

    Pete.

    Thanks very much, Bruce.

    I saw this after replying to your INSPECT post... :)
