Hi Will,

I am not a Fortran person either but I do have a little bit of RT11
experience, along with a fair bit of SIMH experience, and I just wanted to
say that both of these documents are exceptionally well done.  Their
explicit transcription and verbosity make them suitable for the absolute
beginner, and that same plain English makes them easy to scan through for
someone who knows a bit more about the subject.  I applaud your work.
