Dear Dr. Reynolds:

\JPerhaps you don't recall, but we met briefly at MI5 in 1969 -- dinner
with D. Luckham in a noisy Edinburgh restaurant--.  At any rate, I happened
across two of your papers recently: "Definitional interpreters...", and 
" ... Continuations". They jibe well with some work I have been doing,
defining a clean LISP-like language with user-defined data structures in the
spirit of EL1.  Since both of your above mentioned papers are older, I
thought perhaps you might have some more recent papers which also 
might be related. If so, I would enjoy receiving copies; or if you 
maintain a mailing list, I would be interested in your future work.\.
