   PPS: I also meant add, memory failing me (Elderly Correction Code)-   
   these days I need bootstrap glasses to find my actual glasses - that VSI   
   should establish the "VSI Technical Journal" PDF publication, with a   
   full, established, ISSN, to indictate that VSI is more than a sunset   
   enterprise catering to a sunset customer base, and that the renaissance   
   and re-efflorescence of the VMS ecosystem is both likely and possible,   
   and that a long future is probable.   
      
   I am sure that there are many in VSI engineering with war stories to   
   tell, could they afford time away from the Hephasteusean software forges   
   to pen quality monographs.   
      
   On a technical note, my loose-caboose, helter-skelter, to-do list, shoe   
   box, is actually a VT220 documentation box - forty years old, and still   
   going strong - DEC also managed to source quality cardboard boxes!
