Know any Fortran programmers who need a more interesting job?

In 1970, at Goddard Space Flight Center, Space Sciences Data Center, we
used FORTRAN on a 7094 with a 360/30 for I/O. But we also used FORTRAN
on several 360/9x machines, and sometimes APL on time sharing (selectric
terminal)
I wonder when the 7094s finally got retired.
