Never used Mumps but spent my fair share of time with the rest of what you mentioned.

S/390 assembler is my favorite and most used language. I also like SNOBOL, APL, Ada (haven't used it much but it is waaay cool) and PL/I. I actually used to write quite a bit of 390 object code so for me assembler is still HLL

Still haven't learned a language worth a damn for UNIX programming but maybe Ada will be enough there.
