Please explain to us how some of the features you mention work.  What is
"threaded"?  How can forth be both a "high level language" and "low level
language"?  How can it be customized?  And most importantly, what does it
look like?  Can you include a short program in both C and forth so we can
compare them?  Thanks,

	Wayne
