My one experience trying to read fortran code is this climate model: http://climatemodels.uchicago.edu/isam/isam.doc.html http://climatemodels.uchicago.edu/isam/isam.doc.html If most fortran code looks like that then I think the language deserves a reputation for being arcane and cumbersome.

That is an example of 'legacy' FORTRAN (when it was still written in all-caps). I agree, reading through that is not a great time. edit: That being said, there are some really well-written projects that have shown me what good modern Fortran looks like [1-3].
