The only thing I remember about Ada is that it introduced exceptions (or maybe was one of the languages that spread it). Useful little tidbit since I like to keep a mental picture of what languages roughly influenced other languages.

It was fairly widespread in Austria for a while (90s).
Never really used it and kind of expected it to be dead or only used in specific old systems. Interesting to see that there's a new version (I have to admit I'm still stuck on 95 and missed 2007 completely).
