John:
that does sound very interesting! As others have said - haven't heard of FORTH for many years, As I recall there was a UK PC programmed in FORTH. The Dragon I think.
I've been using Forth in scientific applications and control systems since 1989. Take a look at my website, http://www.radicalnovelties.com . Most of what you see there was done in Forth.
