[Duaine & Laura Hechler <dahechler@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

You forgot about REXX and it's siblings:

I used it for 19 years - in a professional capacity on the mainframe and 
midrange.

And still using it on Linux (and - was - on windows)

Two of the most complicated programs I wrote were:

- At a direct marketing mail job, the program was written to query - all 
- of the necessary parms to build flyers, newsletters, etc and create - 
all - of the parm cards for the JCL to run the job for printing 
(margins, filler text, headers, footers, etc)

- With about 90% accuracy, read in the 370 object code - and - recreate 
the 370 Assembler source. (We had a project to take an IBM supplied 
online CICS program and make it into a batch program that the 
programmers could run any time without CICS being up.)

P.S. I have - everything - I wrote on a CD
