Sorry, I consider the remark well-justified and will not apologize.  If
you read my other postings on the subject, you will see that I consider
the use of gotos, especially the frequent use of gotos, to be a sign of
poor organization and "coding before thinking".  Given this opinion, it
is hardly surprising that I would be reluctant to buy software from an
organization which endorses routine use of gotos.
