    Incidently, Mr. Furman has kindly consented to a guest appearance on 
    November 15, 1990 to discuss this very subject - 'SIGForth ACM revisited'

    This will place Alan's conference squarely on the deadline for paper
    submissions for the 1991 SIGForth Conference, so if you are interested
    in this organization Alan, George, Paul, Dave et al have worked so hard
    to promote this is a golden opportunity to get your information first-

  >... ., and GEnie/ForthNet (MAJOR contribution--good show, Gary Smith!); 

     I appreciate the 'ATTA-BOY', but I hasten to note this has been a group
     effort with praise and thanks due Jerry Shifrin, Jack Woehr, Doug
Philips,
     Don Madsen, Jack Brown, Lance Collins, Tommy Rolf, Dennis Ruffer  and 
     so many others who have helped create the ForthNet and MOST ESPECIALLY
     the participants who post the messages and files. An empty mailbag makes
     for a lousey NET !
