Frank -- thanks for presenting the paper.  I'm sorry I couldn't
make it.  I'm in the middle of a difficult transition and had
to cancel at the last minute (my apologies to all who expected
to see me there).  I had to take a trip to Hartford at the
same time as the conference.

The GOOD NEWS is that I finally have a job after Harris canned
the RTX team.  I'll be working for United Technologies Research 
Center in Hartford CT doing embedded control system R&D.  United
Technologies owns Otis Elevator, Carrier Air Conditioning,
Pratt & Whitney jet engines, Norden Sonar & Radar, et al.
I don't know how much or if I'll be using Forth.  I do expect
to maintain access to comp.lang.forth after a transitional
disruption.
