    I'll take the bait. Please explain your signature.

    Nothing exciting, I'm afraid. 80 characters.

    Should be 72, Shirley?

    I have written a quarter of a million (SWAG) lines of Fortran in my lifetime. If I never write another line I will be happy. But I will write more Fortran next Tuesday. Converting it all to C++ cannot come soon enough.

    Ahh... but isn't it true that C++ is only for nerds? All the cool kids
    write rust these days!

    I have written a quarter of a million (SWAG) lines of Fortran in my
    lifetime. If I never write another line I will be happy.  But I will write >>> more Fortran next Tuesday.  Converting it all to C++ cannot come soon
    enough.

    Converting Fortran or C++ to Rust is non trivial. I have actually considered it. Shoot, converting Fortran to C++ is non trivial.

    Lynn


    Ahh, I see. Thank you very much, had no idea. =)

    And I am not a kid, much less a cool kid.

    Don't sell yourself short. Maybe not a kid, but plenty cool in my book
    with the business that you have and based on what you do!
