    Thanks Pablo for posting the link.
    As only 34 have looked at this as of today, I posted it again - adding some links for people who might not know.

    Great, I did not even know that he was still around.
    Thanks for posting it.
    Any particular idea about the time yet?

    The Forth must be strong in him. 'Starting FORTH' appears to have
    outlasted the critics who bemoaned it didn't show enough respect.
    The priesthood would say that.

    Good morning,
    OK. Leo BRODIE has written 2 books on the FORTH language.
    I wrote 5....
    What's the point of talking about Leo BRODIE in a video?
    What is Leo BRODIE currently doing for the FORTH language?
    Does he have a website where he talks about the FORTH language?
    Explaining FORTH lag by example and self-documenting code is what I do here: https://eforth.arduino-forth.com/article/elements_introduction
    FORTH2020 happens to be managed by Peter FORTH. And this Peter FORTH kicked me out of his FORTH2020 group on Facebook without explanation. On REDDIT, his accomplice John HARDY even accuses me of harassment under different Facebook identities...
    - Mr Peter FORTH has my email. He can answer me...
    - Mr John HARDY has my email. He can answer me...
    So who is really advancing the cause of the FORTH language? ------------------------------
    8 days ago, a programmer contacted me by email because he had a problem to interface his A/D converter in software with ESP32forth. I studied his request and I answered him. I even sent him several emails. Not even a thank you...
    ----------------------------
    Good programming...

    I do agree with some of your points,

    but it is unfair to belittle the work he has done for Forth INC and especially when Forth started;
    - and everywhere these 2 books are named as Forth Classics.
    The best Forth Books at the time.
    What he does now is not really relevant.

    Unfortunately your books are not as well known.
    And you did not show the links to them.

    People meet online as they please.

    I definitely do agree with your points about this Fake Forth Guy.
    But there are many other well known people there.
    This guy sets the rules in his facebook group
    and people have to live with it.
    I stayed away as much as possible
    as I had issues with both of them.

    It is up to people if they want to join this group.

    I am surprised about your reaction to somebody
    who had issues with your SW.
    How does this fit in with this online meeting?

    Looking for recognition is about advancing oneself - no?
