My apologies in advance but several thoughts ran through my neural nets when I read the request for old LRM's. 1. Mine are so stained with blood, sweat & tears that they are unusable. 2. Our local phonebooks are being recycled for wallboard covering, at additional expense to us taxpayers, to reduce the load on the landfill (seriously, this is true). Perhaps the old LRM's should similarly be recycled into cartons for MRE's etc. 3. I might bury mine, in case they are someday outlawed. When Ada is outlawed - Only outlaws will have LRM's. 4. I'll give up my LRM when they pry it from my cold, dead fingers! 5. Someday we will look back on the LRM and laugh at how we tried to communicate with programmable state machines. I wouldn't want to be without my LRM at that time. Seriously, I'll be glad to share a copy of the LRM on diskette that I downloaded from the SEI. Send me your snail-mail address and specify IBM DOS floppy disk or Macintosh diskette in Microsoft Word format. I'll even include what I downloaded from Ada9X BB so your students will have a heads-up on whats coming. sam harbaugh saharbaugh@ROO.FIT.EDU <-- note: new address as of 3/25/91 ---------------------
