Bob continues to pioneer the
integration of computers in the everyday business of life and has
recently moved fundamental diary use to his nascent 4th.CoSy NoteComputing
Environment returning to his previous K.CoSy mainly
for accounting functions ( and that's a big "mainly" ) .
The APL family languages are mathematically
based notations whose major market is high level financial systems .
The Forth family languages are minimal extensible kernal dictionaries
below which is only the language of the silicon . See CoSy/Language
In 2000-2001 , Bob moved from his circa
1984 APL-PC based CoSy into a new environment , K.CoSy , constructed in
Arthur Whitney's K language
which he considered the evolute of APL which has best implemented his
own notions of structrual transparency ( see Language/LowDownObjects
) plus many features he never imagined . However , non-infix syntax and
interests very divergent from the Whitneys led Bob in 2005 to start
constructing his own APL informed system from the Forth up . Bob
continues to press forward the evolution of CoSy , to empower the
individual to truly control his own machine - and life . Keep up to
date by joining the CoSy.Forum
.
In
August 2002 , motivated by the experiences of the neighborhood , Bob
had a vision for an extremely strong , symmetric structure appropriate
for creating the tallest and strongest of life spaces . He computed the
"part list" to create this
Conic All Connect in K.CoSy and this patent pending
structure is available for licensing .
Bob is Trustee of the Mary E.J. Armstrong
Trust , for discretionary benefit of his retarded brother Jack . Family
affairs have consumed a large fraction of his time and energy over the
last couple of decades .
Bob has become a Bleeding Heart
Libertarian
in recent years and was the Manhattan Libertarian Party
drug affairs director and , in 2005 , their treasurer and webmaster ,
remaining webmaster even after moving to Colorado . He contributes the
"Logic of Liberty" column to the MLP's SerfCity.US . See recent activity ,
editorials , and articles in the CoSy "blog" , Current
which Bob began in 1997 .
See CoSy.com
for everything else .
42 Peck Slip , 4B&C , where I lived for 2 decades
View Larger Map
Bob lived at 42 Peck Slip , built in 1873 at the Fulton Fish Market ,
from Fall 1984 til Summer 2005
when he moved to the family "miniranch"
on the edge of Woodland Park , Colorado .
