 F[H>Forth is simply the most fun I've had with a programming
 F[H>language, ever.

 I know what you mean, Bob. It's like the fun I first had
 with Assembly--Forth has got that same feel of power,
 without being so tiresome. You're right about F-PC not
 giving away too many secrets, but it sure neat to play
 around with the graphics commands and the sequential file
 handling. Like you, I have a more bare-bones backup Forth
 for when things aren't going well and I need some hard
 answers (I use Pygmy).
