ABNORMAL IRISH
(Where did this come from? & What does it mean?)

I presume that and the search for FREEWARE HYPERCARD STACK came from somebody who saw the description of the stack on the info-mac archive or somewhere similar. There is our description of how the stack came about with the note that words and phrases in capitals are acronyms in the stack... however there's nothing to indicate that ABNORMAL, IRISH, FREEWARE, HYPERCARD and STACK are all separate acronyms.

WICCA

Brilliant!

I will probably post some here myself soon... I'm off to make my lunch at the moment (I doubt it will contain much cloth.)

SEEING IS BELIEVING

Such Eye Enthusiasm Is Not Good - It Sometimes Blinds! Evidence Lies In Everything, Visibility Is Not Guaranteed.
