First, edit post.tm and change the PO font to CW.  Then

	refer post.tm | pic | troff -ms | ps2pdf - post.pdf

I sent Warren (off list) a copy that I dorked with a bit, using groff and
the original V7 ms macros to produce a farily authentic looking Bell Labs
style memorandum.  He answered that he is out of the country but will
deal with putting things into the archive when he gets back.

Thanks,

Arnold
