Back in the 60's and 70's there was a brief interest in "natural"

punctuation. E.G;
"Take the 50-th element of dog and multiply it by
cat giving hamster.
There was an experimental language called "SNAP" which did that. I
think it was written in fortran. I tried to get the source from the
author but could not get in touch with him...
