Jason, I have an odd situation.  I can't upload any stuff with the isp I'm
using.  If you can read them we can talk about my directly sending you either
3.5 or 5.25 disks of programs themselves.  Have v3.0 and 3.1 of DOS as well as
several versions of prodos and the gsos Davex version of DOS that APH did.  Also
have pascal, graforth, pilot, cp/m, and several other operating systems for the
Apple.  Even have a version of logo I modified to sort of talk although that's
obviously kind of silly.  Got a lot of that stuff boxed up but can probably dig
it out.

If anyone's got it, I'm looking for the version of wlrd.talk that was written
for the pc.  Have I think v3.1 for the Apple but would really like to have the
pc version.  Used to have it but it seems to have gotten lost.

Tom
