OK, so you have this great program, Hal.  And it will allow users who are
not great assembler programs to produce programs in assembler.  And perhaps
there will be some motivation for programmers to write real programs, not
games, that have better performance than would be possible in Basic.
Finally, we might have what appears to be a very good program development
platform.

But......  Your egos are are so enormous that you won't release it until
you can have your silly AOL party.  I think this is a real indicator of the
maturity of the authors of this program.  Release the damn thing.  Don't
e-mail it, put it up on Ti-calc or wherever.  At least people can start
using it.

Then, those who care, can come to your little AOL party when you have it,
and you can have your moment of glory.  A truly mature individual
understands that the real pride in writing a quality program comes from
others using it rather than from a bunch of kids sitting around on some IRC
or in some Chat room giving the author the obligatory strokes.  Grow up
already.
