Hi everyone -- just an announcement that Dr. Thomas Kurtz, the
(co-)inventor of BASIC while at Dartmouth in 1964, will be giving a
keynote lecture at the Vintage Computer Festival East 8.0 (May 5-6,
2012, at the InfoAge Science Center in Wall, New Jersey.)

Dr. Kurtz's lecture is scheduled for noon on Saturday, May 5. It's
open to all. Kids get in free, and adult tickets are just $10 for the
day (or $15 for the weekend.) All proceeds benefit the non-profit
InfoAge museum and the sponsoring user group (MARCH - Mid-Atlantic
Retro Computing Hobbyists.)

Details will be posted soon at http://www.vintage.org/2012/east/ and
you can 'like' us at http://www.facebook.com/vcfeast8. Or, you can
email me personally at evan [at] snarc.net.
