It doesn't matter to me if he's a stalwart or not. Things you can't
look up easily get ignored.

resp:3 My thought is that they are really targeted to a specific
geographical location, and they are temporal in nature (e.g., after
the meeting, it's only interesting as part of a historical record).
Since it's not of general interest (e.g., those outside of Ann Arbor
and surrounding environs are less likely to attend) I'd be happier if
they were in a single, "Ann Arbor Computer Society Meetings and
Presentations" item.
If a particular meeting generated a lot of discussion, that seems like
the ideal time to move it into its own item, but an item for each
meeting seems like overkill.

Thanks, TS. Apparently this language doesn't exist yet in terms of
being used for anything practical. At least, sourceforge only has
a couple html files to download and no discussions yet (which state
it's currently a SmallTalk implementation of SimpleEnglish for testing
only). Looks like they just put that up that site recently. Good luck
replacing all that COBOL code, by the way. There's more to replacing a
current business language than saying it's anemic and primitive.
