Those of us who are entertained by this thread have now expressed our 
viewpoints. Those who are annoyed by it are becoming more annoyed. It
is probably time to terminate it.   I originally intended only to 
share the fact that I had responded to the Business Week article
with something postive about Ada.  It turned into a Donneybrook that
I did not expect, but should have anticpated.  Now let's see if any
thing positive can come of it within the glossy pages of BW.

No more on bugs versus mistakes, OK?
