        I have resisted this memo as long as possible. However it now seems that
        without it programs will soon begin stepping on each others' private special
        reserved Alto memory locations. This memo purports to list the entire set of
        I 0 cat ion s w11 i c h are bel i e \' edt abe pre s e r v e d a c r 0 S S sub s y s t e'm c a lIs, a l' wh i c h
        dre held to be special by hardware or microcode. If you know of other
        locations which should be in this list, please let me know. The czar carries
        the heavy burden bf adjudicating.territorial disputes,for which h~ hopes h-
        will not need the wisdom of Solomon.
