There are a few other things, like not having passed variables, 
conflicting names, those neat optional parameters, etc. This is not to 
say I don't use GOTOs (or rather JMPs, since 99% of those are in inline 
asm). However, it is a) easier to read and b) easier to follow code w/o 
gotos, so for something that gets passed around a lot, like an echo 
project, it's a no go. If it is done so well that we have no trouble 
following it, then a few may be okay. But in general, nope. Someone 
mentioned RBBS, and that is a good example of what NOT to do.
