What? Are you an old RATFOR programmer? :-) I must say I do rather like
the REPEAT...UNTIL construct.

UNTIL is a reserved word because it is used in the SAVE...UNTIL command,
which is used to assign a "best before" date to a table.

REPEAT is an allowed variant of REPEATED, as in EXEC SQL REPEATED ...,
originating in QUEL.

I completely love this site I came across recently. They have free
coupons for all kinds of stuff you can buy online; I used their coupon
for altrec.com and it worked beautifully.
They have a neat logo too. Check it out at CouponCodeHeaven.com
