[ale] Introduction and info about myself

[Mike Harrison]

Yea! I'm not alone!  +1 for Joe.

For the record: 1st real word processor I ever saw was the Wang Word 
processor, My first real one was Ashton Tate's Multimate, which tried to 
be similar to the Wang. Wordstar filled in later, I used Blackbeard and 
Brief (some) on DOS for coding.

My Sinclair Z88 (still works), Wordstar, and Joe use similar enough key 
binding that I think I can truthfully say I've been using essentially the 
same command for cut/paste/yank.. etc.. for.. (about 1984/5 to now.. )
for about 30 years.
