   produces -- Gnu Emacs contains about 124,000 lines of code, which is
   considered a "small" program in the software world.  That's about the
   size of a *typical* Cobol program in the business world.  (Ugh!)

Yes, but do the 124,000 lines of cobol do the same amount/degree/level
of work that 124,000 lines of C/Elisp do?
