Thanks for taking the time to go through this short survey.

It is for a small research project in a graduate Data Algorithms and 
Programming course.  We program in Ada, and the text is Grady Booch's 
book (something like _Ada for advanced programmers_--I don't have it 
right in front of me.)

Please include "SURVEY" in your subject line, and if you would like a reply 
with my results, please include "REQUEST REPLY" also.
