For people such as myself who are inordinately fascinated by Prolog, and
terribly intimidated by things like the Warren Abstract Machine, here is
a practical subset of Prolog written in the much easier to implement Forth
along with various companion articles (including one on SKI combinators).

Greetings;
Like many of you here I am an old time home computer guy who got his start in 1976 when I built my first computer, an Altair 8800.
I am writing to get some information on a number of Dr Dobb's Journals that I wish to sell. I would like some input on what an honest price would be. I am also trying to determine if I should sell these one by one or in volume sets.
I have the following:
Volume number? Issue #
1??? ??? ???????????????? 1,3,6, 10
2????????????????????????? 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
3????????????????????????? 2,5,6,7,8,9,10
4?????????????????????????? 1,3,4,6,7,8,9,10
5?????????????????????????? 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
6?????????????????????????? 1,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12
7??????????????????????????? 2
Your input would be appreciated.

"Perrier".

Sorry for long-delayed response, and bad pun.

Large Asteroids headed toward planets
inhabited by beings that don't have
technology adequate to stop them:
Think of it as Evolution in Fast-Forward.
I'm not on the net everyday, I'm working my way through the dialog.
What's most important is that someone who w/o doubt can image them. I don't care about the physical disks so much. Just that they're in the hands of someone who can make the most of them (and yes I would like to partake in the digital booty). All I have thus far is an Apollo m/b. Don't even know if it works, but maybe someday...

What, no 8K AIM65 version? Hrmph!
BTW, thanks to Dwight and another AIM65'er the ROMs and manual for the
little-known AIM65 Pascal have been (re)discovered and the original author
is even still around, so as soon as we get past the memory map issues
hopefully there will be *four* languages for the AIM65: BASIC, Forth, PL/65
and Pascal (plus the assembler of course).

You wouldn't know it from reading your "mine's bigger than yours" posts like
the above and your customary "I'm right and you're an a**hole", not to
mention the amount of time you seem to have for these tired same-old
same-old MS/Win-bashing threads every couple of months; they really don't do
much for your professional image.
Just imagine how much more work you could get done if you practiced a little
restraint...
