Deltak, now that's a name, I've not heard in a long time.

One of my employers started me off with a Deltak video course on JCL.  It gave 
me a solid grounding in JCL, one I've used almost every week in the decades 
since.  I am frequently surprised at how many mainframe professionals limp 
along, modifying existing JCL at need but not really understanding how it 
works.  How does one work in this environment without JCL?

Maybe I shouldn't sneer.  I keep saying I want to learn HLASM, but haven't 
gotten around to doing it yet.
