Huge article over at MacCentral for Valentina but it does not mention 
or link to MetaCard.  And it pains me to see Valentina's web site 
actually spell out "Apple's Hypercard" which is dead from Apple's 
point of view, but lump MetaCard into the word xTalk.  We need to 
support Scott and MetaCard by actually spelling this stuff out for 
others and not let them guess at what xTalk is (I met an old 
HyperCard programmer at Discreet last week, he had no idea what 
MetaCard was):

It just talks about Java and Realbasic, why can't MetaCard get some 
free mentions in these articles???

You now, ironically, I think that MetaCard sales would probably 
rocket if Scott got the rights to name MetaCard "HyperCard".  Maybe 
MC should do an IPO, the users buy stock, the money is used to buy 
HyperCard from Apple - tell the world its alive again (but it's 
really MetaCard), and watch the user base grow.

Just thinking out loud.
