Funny you should mention that. I just recently wrote a PDP-8 simulator in MCPL. (It boots OS/8 as of about a week and a half ago). MCPL is a language developed by Martin Richards who originated BCPL (which inspired Thompson's B which of course Ritchie developed into C). I also spend some time here and there with Forth on a homebrew 6809 system. So the answer is yes, there are definitely people here who enjoy older languages. BLS
