Dear Dr. Tennent:
\JI have just been reading some of your technical reports and have found
them quite interesting. I have recently been pursuing similar lines, developing
a language I call structured LISP. It seems clear that careful semantics must
be an integral part of language design, rather than applied as a bandage to the
bleeding patient.
In any case, I would be grateful if I could receive TR#73-15, your thesis,
and any of your subsequent documents which you think relevant. Perhaps
if you have a mailing list I could also become a member. In return,
if there are AI Memos or underground papers which might interest you I could reciprocate.\.
