I had to touch a little bit of Fortran 77 when I interned at Lockheed Martin nine years ago.
While I don't know that I would use Fortran for anything nowadays, I do kind of have to appreciate how completely simple Fortran was in comparison to my favorite language of the time, C++ (I hadn't learned Haskell or Lisp very well at the time so I didn't know better :) ).
I haven't touched any later standards after 77; is Fortran still technically not Turing complete?
