This week's episode of BBC Radio's Digital Planet show includes a short 
segment on the 50th anniversary of Fortran. The presenter, Gareth 
Mitchell, interviewed me last week and about 4 minutes of that interview 
are included.

If you're interested, the show will be broadcast at various times today 
(Tuesday) and tomorrow; local schedules are available at this web page:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/cgi-bin/worldservice/psims/ScheduleSDT.cgi

For one week only, starting today, an MP3 of the entire half-hour show 
can be downloaded from this web page:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/programmes/digital_planet.shtml

The Fortran segment starts at about 19m38s into the show.
