Thanks for the link to the "Wayback Machine",  but in order to use the 
"Wayback Machine", you have to have a url, one thing I have not found in 
this case, lots of mentions of free downloads, but no links, even in 
emails from Ray Duncan himself. Another thing is that rarely does the 
"Wayback Machine" have downloads. It's good if what you are looking for 
is the webpage itself for the information it contains, not so good for 
file downloads.

I have, and will keep looking for a while but it's beginning to look 
like a lost cause in this case, one more item lost to history in Forth 
ever moving decay, that doesn't not bode well for the future of Forth, 
it's few adherents mostly consisting of older grey headed persons are 
loosing interest and letting the information and software disappear. 
I've thought of collecting some of the available information and making 
it available, the problem is that many will not allow mirroring of their 
sites, then one day their site is gone and it's too late.
