Goto isn't bad if you know how to use it.

Thanks for the link. I agree that in some cases goto may make sense but I haven't seen yet a case where you cannot write cleaner code using other language features.
goto statements aren't necessarily evil. actually, sometimes they prove to be quite useful:

Hi Liran
I actually like the Java approach of multi-level breaks. Instead of a coarse-grained goto statement (which can be wrongly or rightly used) it introduces a new language feature that supports only the "good" subset of goto. Very similar to "break" or "continue" which also cover subset of the goto usage.
GO statement was good for structural programming. It doesn't make sense to use it (except in special cases) in OOP.
