Andrew> Hey! What's wrong with GOTO ?

I would like to urge *everyone* not to discuss this issue any further
without first reading Don Knuth's classic paper, ``Structured
Programming with _goto_ Statements'' in the December 1974 issue of ACM
Computing Surveys.

That way you won't spend lots of time thinking up arguments that Knuth
disposed of nearly 30 years ago.
