Tä-Tä! ;->

Well, Ada modesty, ... not really what I can see in
the writings of Richard Riehle concerning
the early political marketing of Ada and its effects ...

So then, Wikipedia's auto-highlighter needs an update by
someone familiar with lookback parsing needed to make
apostrophe work (and maybe other issues).

If Ada is better for examples, then at least do not
mention the language's name.  Seems better if first-timers
see Ada in examples without associating any of its
non-technical reputation.  Prove that Ada is readable!
