I struggle to remember the mainstream computer press printing anything
other than ill informed and inaccurate statements about Ada in recent
times. It is a relief to see someone publishing hard facts at last."

I will try to remember to have a look at that, Computer Weekly is running
a little late here at the moment (latest issue arrived is that of 15th
March 2001 on 23rd March 2001). Do remember that this is the periodical
which successfully campaigned to clear the names of the pilots in the
Chinook disaster, probably correctly overturning the ruling that the crash
was down to pilot error.
