    1) Is there a GNU Fortran Compiler built on the same platform as
    GNAT? (I know there's C and C++ out there somewhere, but never
    heard tell of Fortran.)

      Yes, f77

    2) If there *is* a GNU Fortran, where might I download it?

      From the standard sites for FSF software

    3) Has anyone had any experience in interfacing GNAT Ada95 to
    Fortran? (Level of difficulty? Special caveats & advice?)

      The interface is smooth, and we have not had any trouble with it

    4) How hard is it to interface GNAT to non-GNU based languages?
    (Anybody connected it to "Microsoft Visual JOVIAL" or "Object
    Oriented ADD-ONE-TO-COBOL" or some other language that has more
    than one letter for a name?)

      It depends if the other language follows system standards or not.
      Generally it is as easy to interface GNAT to a language as it is
      to interface C to it.
