Hey, I didn't swear.  But, he did surprise me that he got the English
correct!  I'm wondering if he "cut-n-pasted" it or if he consulted with
Passaniti.

I only pointed out that Forth and C have the same issues.  I didn't make any
claims that C was better than Forth.  Apparently, his hatred of C is so
intense, he can't recognize this as being true.  He sees C's problems, but
not Forth's, even though they're the same.

> Sounds like you guys need Diaperglu Forth.

It's real and apparently you're the author.  I thought you were joking.
I.e., "diaper glue" or "nanny state" Forth, e.g., we need everything to be
checked for us ...  No offense, but what a poor name choice.  I definately
don't want to be thinking about real "diaper glue".  Yuck!

Stuff you need to start another thread with.  It's possible that those you'd
like to read those comments on Forth's future will not see them here.
