I might note that B's syntax, and hence C's syntax, was a definite
*dis*improvement [sic] over that of its predecessor, BCPL. I would in
fact post an article saying exactly that, except for the fact that this
entire thread most certainly belongs somewhere, but not in
comp.lang.scheme.  Would you please edit the Newsgroups: line in further
articles on this subject?
