Do schools still teach FORTRAN? Is there anyone under the age of 50 writing it professionally (not just a little hobby dabbling)? Would someone who is expert in the CFD domain be interested in picking through 30yo code to learn the language and contribute?

I can do that: I usually manage to get the wrong answer really fast...
