This looked like noise.
PLEASE. We're not programming in Pascal (and thank all Gods for that),
so we can have labels that have meaningful names. Also, we're not
ashamed of using goto where it makes sense, so we don't need to try to
hide the labels by making them look like specks of dirt on our
monitor.
So give the label a real name that describes what it is. Not this kind of thing.
