In a former position I worked on colorimetric instruments,
we used forth on the old AIM-65 and clones. Zip for memory
( 1K-4K RAM ) and the suckers screamed.  It has been a
while,  but I still think fondly of forth and play a bit 
when I can.  Forth experience has sure warped my work
in 'C'.  Everyone should learn a completely different
language,  it makes you appreciate the variety more.
