I believe that Dijkstra's article was called "Goto Statement Considered Harmful". I actually remember reading this when it came out ...

Article "Go To Statement Considered Harmful" by Edsger W. Dijkstra (article from Communications of the ACM, Vol. 11, No. 3, March 1968, pp. 147-148) can be found in the attachment.

Thanks Bob and Vladimir.

"Programming without goto" is second more famous name of this article. I think.
