Re: A83: CalcEm, Aurora, endless venting, etc.
Speaking of Bill, WTF has he been? How old is he anyway? I could
understand his ditching the 83 if I knew he was graduated from school and
has a full time high paying job. He hasn't released any 83 progs since
January. He could give us all a great deal of ASM help. You didn't
lock him away somewhere did you, Joe ? : ) Just kidding. Your a lot
more of a help than he is anyway and you have a cooler webpage! Hail
SOS! Long live Joe!
