>From alice!rabbit!xchar@Berkeley Fri Apr 2 11:09:29 1982 A definitive answer to recent inquiries in fa.human-nets, fa.editor-p, and net.general:

Ted Nelson is alive and well at Datapoint (Advanced Products Division) in San Antonio, Texas. His preferred mailing address, however, is still: Box 128, Swarthmore, PA 19081

Bay Area and Silicon Gulch residents may be interested in hearing that he will be the featured opening speaker at the AFIPS Office Automation Conference in Moscone Center, San Francisco, at 11 am Monday April 5. Also of interest are his articles in the March CREATIVE COMPUTING, "Smoothers of the Lost Arc," and the March DATAMATION, "A New Home for the Mind."

Ted says "Project Xanadu, the 21-year effort to develop an infinitely expansible linked-text retrieval system, is flourishing in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and is quoting prices on large configuration software."
