   You want a BIG language?  Try COBOL with its 500 or so keywords;
   Ada only has 63.

   By the way, studies have shown (CACM, I forget the exact issue)
   that there is practically nothing that can be directly trimmed
   from Ada 83 without fundamentally weakening its capabilities.

   However, there will probably be a consolidation of the concepts
   of package and task into the single concept of an object, either
   in this revision (Ada 9X) or the next.
