A discussion in a another venue involved two VMS folk, one of whom
used to work in the (non-military) shop where the other still worked.
The topic was Ada, and the departed employee asked whether the shop
was still using Ada.  The response was that yes, existing VMS systems
were still using Ada, but lately the shop was using more Windows NT
so it was unlikely that Ada would be used in the future unless someone
came up with an Ada compiler for Windows NT !
