> I'm an old programmer. "Coder" in today's parlance. And many old programmers know COBOL. Young coders don't. When the Muskrat claims Social Security is paying thousands of 150 year olds I think someone should let him know that in COBOL, if a date is missing the program defaults to 1875. e.g. 2025 - 1875 = 150
