Bang on! (those puns, those bloody puns)

Goto is a famous drum troop based, if I am not mistaken, on Sado, an island 
off the west coast of Japan.  Sado is known for its austere climate which is 
almost as harsh as the weather in Montreal.  This is why it has over the 
centuries attracted both ascetics and enemies of the state (exiles to Sado 
rarely came back alive).  As far as I remember Goto was originally connected 
with a Zen monastery, but today it no longer has a religious function.

Many years ago when I was learning C programming I was told in no uncertain 
terms never to use goto.  This was drummed into me.
