I forgot to qualify this statement like I did another in my post. It only
applies to languages that actually were successful languages. Many languages
have been invented that never actually really "lived" in that they were not
widely known. FX seems to fall in this category. It appears to only be an
MIT research project.

Can't testify to its use, but I find information about it on the web.

I can't speak to this one as there is almost no information on the web. Not
sure if it ever was successful.

And the fact that a language involves from one version to another does not
qualify as the language being dead. REBOL seems to be far from dead:
