Yes but they were writing it today.
We have a bunch of SQR programs. You don’t have to declare your variables in SQR. Worst language ever. You can fat finger a variable and it still compiles. It takes forever to figure it out.
Java is mixed case. That drives an old COBOLer like me nuts.

Unless I misread the article, these guys are just patching, debugging, and integrating existing COBOL apps, not writing new ones.
