Please point to _ANY_ statement I made about Forttran not allowing side
effects for which the subject line of the article did not _explicitly_
refer to the special case in question.  If you can't, you have failed
to make _any_ valid point.  If you don't, I will not respond to this
subject again.  I also have a complete history of this discussion to refer
back to.
