    Rather than explain all the details, the full story can be found
in an essay-type post written by Gareth Jones a little over a year
ago. If you'd like to read it, go to Dejanews (www.dejanews.com) and
do a filtered search for comp.sys.apple2. The subject of the post
was titled "Re: AWGS Reclassification", it was posted "1997/03/09"
and the author is "gareth@vcn.bc.ca (Gareth Jones)". You just have
to select 'Power Search' to enter all the query information.
