  Well, it kind of did: when was the last time you saw Cobol? But that's just a complicated way of saying "invisibility != nonexistence" ;)

    Yeah, I just used a COBOL app at work about an hour ago, but as far as I know only a mysterious, nearly extinct secret society of wizards known as COBOL Developers have access to see or touch the eldritch horror that is the source code of this application, which is in fact older than I am. COBOL didn't go anywhere. COBOL developers, on the other hand...

      If it's secret, how can you tell it's extinct? For all you know, your workplace might be teeming with secret wizards ;)
