Pascal has always been great

I remember the excitement when Turbo Pascal was first released, prior to that I had been using Oregon Software Pascal-2 because I could write a program on a DEC RSX11M system at work and then recompile it at home on MSDOS or vica versa - sweet! I still occasionally write in Pascal to demonstrate code because it's readable even if you are not a Pascal programmer.
