"You mean MAY we edit Joey." "But Roo-man I don't want to be editted." ------------------------------ The night is dark and windy. Roo-man, defender of truth and just coding, has been called away on a mysterious assignment. Suddenly, a dark, sinister shape is seen creeping along the hedge, dragging a heavy burlap bag. The shape pauses, listens intently, then starts to chuckle. "He, he, he! Nobody is looking! This looks like as good a place as any to ditch this load!" He drops the burlap bag gleefully and scampers away. ------------------------------ "Laborious labyrinths Roo-man! This looks like a lot of twisty little routines all alike!" "Well said, Joey!" ------------------------------ [in the Extended I/O ROM at address 7FC0] "MTS: Raan Young, PM: Bill Wickes" [in the Extended I/O ROM at address 7FE0] "Roo-man says 'Welcome, PPC.'"
