: -- MESSAGE FROM THE AUTHOR'S GHOST -- :
: I wrote this program because I'm interested in :
: genealogies and computers. Being on a computer :
: should make it easier to pass on to following :
: generations because updating and distributing :
: it becomes so easy. I only wonder whether :
: dbaseII and cpm will still exist when it's my :
: grand childrens turn to keep the thing up to :
: date!! They'll probobly be updating it on their :
: wristwatch or god knows what else. :
: Well I wrote this thing while living in Paris :
: in 1983 and Bill Graham who organised the first :
: French Osborne user's group (Osborne was the :
: first portable computer) suggested I toss it, :
: like a note in a bottle, into the seas and :
: rivers of public domaine software. Since you're :
: reading this now, it must have washed up on the :
: distant shore of your computer. If you like it, :
: hate it, use it or whatever I'd like to know so :
: please send me a note in a bottle: SAM WASHBURN :
: 3 Temple Place, Andover, Ma. 01810 U.S.A. :
