 I'm not putting down Fifth... but it ain't Forth.  It's very different. 
 Just because it's built on a Forth core doesn't mean it's Forth to use; 
 Microsoft QuickBasic is built on a forth-like threaded interpreter core,
 and Actor is built on forth too.  And nobody would mistake either of 
 them for forth when it came to using them...
