  Cobol *shiver* horrid language by Freakazoid2002-07-24 20:49:35
    Mock not the COBOL by Nawft2002-07-24 20:53:53
      You are correct by nhaggin 2002-07-24 21:00:55
that COBOL is widely-used, but that still does not prevent it from being "weak, flabby, and verbose," to quote a certain compendium of lore. ;) It loses big aesthetically and lacks the general-purpose flexibility of later languages (i.e., C), but I must admit that it works fairly well in its limited applications.

I dare say a good deal of its popularity comes from it being the third HLL ever to be invented.
