Just remember:
foreach {majorplayer} do

repeat (never done)
<BG> 'trample' is a good alternate function as well...
Well, whadayaknow! Could it be our James Willing referred to as "Jim
Willing" in the sidebar of the referenced "Computerworld" flashback
article
below? I thought I was going to just see a reference to my AWA colleague,
but lo!, Jim's in there too!
Guilty as charged... And heck, its only ever "James" in mail headers.

I'm in Computerworld this week, July 12.
To my Radio friends,
There is a write-up about me and the 1976 Personal Computing(R) Show
in "Computerworld" this week, July 12. The on-line version is at the
following URL:

Looks like Jim and J. Dilks are but two of the players, albeit minor, of the just launched revolution in personal computing
and in there
shoulder-to-shoulder with some of the pioneering manufacturers and
marketers. Kinda neat!
Amazing too, how a tad over an hour on the phone doing that interview
condenses down into one paragraph, no? Nice to be remembered in any case
though.
We all have our parts to play. Some just do it more quietly than others...
