   I couldn't be bothered to give an opinion, for there are too many   
   roadblocks to view it.   
   I'd say that any text about Forth that is before the ISO 93 and has not   
   been reworked is not deserving my attention anyway.   
   (Unless it is documentation about a Forth running on one of my legacy   
   machine.)
