Hmmm. Sounds like same time period.

PL/1, Cobol, RPG, RPG2, JCL, Pascal, IBM Assembler w/Assist, Basic (Mainframe) and more I've forgotten about.

Given I work for a very large global bank and we have a TON of PL/1 and Cobol still running the bank (and has for 40-50 years..) I absolutely DO NOT say I learned any of the above. They'll stick me on some Cobol or PL/1 conversion project and that's career DEATH.

Well, I'm north of 60 so I don't have much career left anyway, LOL!
