Kathleen O'Brien I believe worked for Atari and wrote the Assembly language Editor cartridge, that was maybe also used to right the Basic cartridge, both for the Atari 800. I assume she is still with us, don’t know though, but I think it would be interesting to hear about early development for the Atari 8 Bit line of computers.

Yes. I think that death would keep one busy! I will leave this one to the historians that I'm inviting. ;)

Perhaps. Oddly, there is a new restaurant in our town called Ada's on the River, on the Potomac in Old Town, Alexandria, VA. We had a dinner there very recently. It's filled with memorabelia, etc. related to Ada Lovelace's life. https://www.adasontheriver.com bp On Wed, Jan 12, 2022 at 1:25 PM Jeffrey Brace <jeffrey@vcfed.org> wrote:

If you know a good medium, then e-mail me privately and I will see if it's possible.
