Hey, Owen! A FORTH programmer!!

I used that language as a grad student in a laser lab at Caltech. It was remarkably efficient, but was often criticized as being a "write-only" language. I found that it could be quite readable, if you defined the "vocabulary" appropriately. I'm not aware of many users these days - they've probably migrated to LabVIEW.

Given it's architecture, FORTH would have been really appropriate for this FIRST game -- STACK ATTACK...

rot swap dup ....
