Dang...what HAVE I been doing then, these past few years?

You ever fly on the 777?  The flight control system is in Ada.
If you land in Canada, their air traffic control system is (or will
be...not
sure if it's been delivered) in Ada.
We fly missiles with Ada.  Shoot 'em down with Ada, too...

But hey, I've never done an applet for the web in Ada, or anything else
important like that...
