>We _already_ live in a world where most of us spend much of our time reading and trying to comprehend code written by others from the past.
In 1969 as a newly hired graduate working for the largest construction company in the country, one of my first assignments was to read through a badly formatted COBOL source code listing on paper, line by line, with 2 others.
