Hi Hugh thanks for your link. In fact I'm moving along alright and I'm
enjoying forth and finding it quite refreshing in it's simplicity. You know
at first I couldn't read a bit of the code but after going over some
tutorials on the net things are making sense and it's really quite simple,
isn't it? It all builds on building blocks, that's a very good design. I
think that's one of the goals of Lisp to be extensible and build from the
bottom. It would seem FORTH does that very well by it's very design.

To you and the others I really have no interest in arguing or controversy.
I'm a programmer and I enjoy learning new languages and working out problems
on the computer. I really hope nobody starts any arguments on my account as
I find that very distasteful. Let's all keep it friendly. The world is too
small for fights and discord.

Cheers,

Harry
