ne thing to remember in this discussion of comments is that in the
Ada world, we ffavor the reader over the writer. Many arguments in favor
of the C style comments have been about favoring the ease of writing.
Fine, but we completely ignorte such arguments, well almost completely
ignore :-)
To me it is clear that the comment style of Ada is MUCH easier on the reader!
