>>Get those punch cards back out!

I get that's (probably!) a joke, but it misrepresents COBOL as something completely stuck in the 70s. And, y'know, it isn't exactly the fanciest language in the world, but we still have several programmers on our project and they're spitting out new code every day of their life, no punchcards:).

(And it's not on a mainframe either - it's running primarily on AIX, with some of Windows and Linux).
