== Influenced by Forth ==
Although the introduction suggests that Joy is the result of an independent convergent evolution, it is common knowledge that stack-based programming languages have a long history, with Forth being an important development (late 60s/early 70s). It's unlikely for a computer scientist (or language developer) to not be aware of Forth and to not have been exposed to other stack-based languages such as Postscript (itself influenced by Forth); especially if developing a language with such striking similarities. Shouldn't the infobox consequently include Forth under "Influenced by"? [[Special:Contributions/76.10.128.192|76.10.128.192]] ([[User talk:76.10.128.192|talk]]) 00:11, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
