I'm still waiting for the advent of the computer science groupie.

        I'm sure that VMS is completely documented, I just haven't found the
right manual yet.  I've been working my way through the manuals in the document

I've noticed several design suggestions in your code.

IBM Advanced Systems Group -- a bunch of mindless jerks, who'll be first
against the wall when the revolution comes...

If a 6600 used paper tape instead of core memory, it would use up tape
at about 30 miles/second.

If a group of _N persons implements a COBOL compiler, there will be _N-1
passes.  Someone in the group has to be the manager.
