There was a (better - I was told) computer language that didn't make it
to the deadline (they missed by one hour - I was (also) told because of
a traffic jam). Could somebody please give me some more information.

This has got to be a joke.  Perhaps the other language shared Ada's
DELAY (till) statement.  Or perhaps John Goodenough planted this rumor
so he could ensure that Ada 9X allows rate monotonic scheduling.
Or maybe it's true?
