COBOL for dummies out now :-)

Another humorous gem from comp.software.year-2000

I went to Barnes and Noble yesterday and was confronted with the usual
display tables as I entered the store. The new "Cobol for Dummies" book
was prominently displayed on one of the tables and piled high right
next to it was "Learn Cobol in 21 Days". Both books had blurbs on their
covers about y2k.

The sudden appearance of a "Dummies" book on cobol coupled with the
corollary sighting of "Learn Cobol in 21 Days" adds up to conclusive
proof that we are all in BIG trouble!
