Martin Gorfinkel is the original author of Fantasia, and IS pretty much
LARC. Proactive and others distributed the product, but Martin wrote it.
He also wrote TDP, which is (was) HP's markup-style document processor.
It's not clear that someone involved in a commercial enterprise can't
also be pro-peace, pro-human rights, pro-ecology, pro-labor, and/or
female or pro-female. Heck, I'm involved in a commercial enterprise, and
I'm all those things except one. (I avoid labor whenever possible.)
