Some getting started information on Forth:\xa0Mitch Bradley's Forth and Open Firmware Lessons

James has been writing about putting\xa0C Forth on a Teensy\xa0(more on the\xa0Teensy\xa0from the creator's site). He also has a post on\xa0using Forth to snoop the Milo Champions Band's BLE.\xa0

James is Quozl on most sites that require a unique ID (such as Github: \xa0https://github.com/quozl). This is from a book called\xa0Quozl by Alan Dean Foster. The other older-sci-fi reference was to the\xa0Pern books by Anne McCaffery, specifically to the\xa0White Dragon.\xa0
