Gosh.  Thanks!

To tell you the truth, I can't bear to look at programs I wrote before
I wrote the Green Book, either.  I learned more by trying to write
that book than I've learned for a long time since then :-)  It was
written in 1987--almost 5 years ago--but a lot of it still seems to
be true (especially the quotes at the beginning of each chapter :-)
