Matt, here's something to think about for a moment.  If GOTO is so essential,
how is it that MILLIONS of programmer, writing BILLIONS of lines of code
over DECADES have been able to forgo using it?  This is a serious thing to
ponder.

I admit the adustment to writing structured code is not an easy one, but the
rewards (this is just one of many voices of experience) are more than you know.
