   I think I saw a cyrillic font on sonata.cc.purdue.edu

        try /pub/next/graphics/font   or something like that ...

   There's a whole directory with fonts, and I think cyrillic is
   one of them.

Subject:      NeXT in audition

I'm interested in hearing from anyone using NeXTs in hearing work...

We will be starting a project soon (on computational modelling of the
auditory system for sound source separation, based on work by Martin
Cooke and Guy Brown, for anybody interested) which will involve,
amongst other things:

1/ Recording several sources (talkers, max 8 channels)
simultaneously.
[The best approach suggested to us would be to use an Ircam Signal
Processing Workstation, or at a pinch a Quintprocessor, but these are
a bit beyond our means (although we may be able to hire them for a
short duration)]

2/ Psychoacoustic experimentation - e.g. testing intelligibility of
resynthesised separated signals.

I'd be grateful for advice/suggestions/experience etc. from anybody
who has used NeXTs for these tasks in particular, but also anything
else related.

I apologise in advance if I fail to reply individually: I suspect I
may get swamped, and I'm quite busy at the moment... :-(

Have fun,

Malcolm.

Were we supposed to receive Mathematica as part of the bundled software for our
NeXTstation?  Some of the demos included can't find it, so I was wondering if
we should have gotten it, or did we have to pay extra for it during purchasing.
Thanks.

Renato,
        I had seen a quote of the letter elsewhere, you left out the critical
element, all this was framed as a feminist plot.  Without that rightwing
use of feminist as a buzz word (which is assumed to sum up all the garbage that
follows in the section quoted), you can't get the full flavor of Robertson's
attack.

might i suggest that a one page description with an e-mail

also, how about annotating the file listing? files like vnr662.gif

Although he focuses on the post World War II period, Geoffrey Hodgson, an Eng-

a non-North American in AMERICA IN OUR TIME: FROM WORLD WAR II TO NIXON, WHAT
HAPPENED AND WHY.  Despite his focus he refers back to the turn of the century
as he attempts to explain the post-WWII position of the U.S. vis a vis military
interventions.

How about the price of one night's lodging as a standard for the value
of money?

This is something which most humans have used, and which we all value.
I can't see how that would change much. It would be valued at about the
same "rate" across centuries and millenia.

It is more byzantine than that. Bush thinks that he us using/playing
to/pandering to the lunatic religious right, the "hezballahi" wing
of the GOP. In another posting I referred to Bush's visit to Bob
Jones University, Greenville, S.C., during the 1988 campaign, in
order to get the approbation of Bob Jones Jr. and Bob Jones III.
Bush was successful in his mission, despite the marked religious
differences between Anglicanism (next to Popery) and Bob Jonesite
hezballah fundamentalism. (Context for our friends in the British
Isles: the Rev. Ian Paisley is an alumnus of and regular visitor to
BJU.)
Now, Bush wants the GOP's Party of God to think that he is with them
in the religious war, he is with them in the cultural war.
Like Sir Robert Peel and the Ultra-Tories, Bush throws the Party of
God a few rhetorical crumbs and a few offices, but excludes them
from he considers to be the corridors of real power. They want to
believe that he really is with them; or at least they affect to
believe that he really is with them, because they know that they
have no other hope of access to power.
But, has Bush become their prisoner?

Have we had enough of this garbage? Should those of us who are
US citizens demonstrate a spirit of global collegiality (aha! so Paz
really is a one-worlder trilateralist communist, like Pat Robertson
says George Bush is) with other members of this list, who have their
own problems, and drop the subject?

"in response to a British threat" is the first speaker's unstated expansion

Comments: To: well!rutvm1.BITNET!history@uunet.UU.NET

lynn & don, are your electronic archives cataloged in your
university's libraries?  if your libraries are members of the research
libraries group, you could also have the cataloging records of your
archives uploaded to rlg's 'archives and manuscript collections' (amc)
database, making them accessible to scholars from around the world.

also, if your libraries' on-line catalogs have the capability to
handle full-text, when a library patron comes up with the record for a
holding in your archive, the data can be downloaded, displayed or
printed. for an example of how this might work (internet users only),
telnet to lib.dartmouth.edu and type the following commands:

	   1. select file shakespeare plays
	   2. find play shrew
	   3. dis long

Marion Diamond: You have a National Tradition regarding alcohol we don't have
here, where if anything the once-dominant WASPs associated themselves with
tetotalling in public self-representation *and* with hard-fisted hard-drinking
when the womenfolk weren't watching. Elsewise, I've heard that Australia has
legally mandatory voting, violation punishable by A$10 fine. If so, we could
emulate that here.

Uhh--do you mean "justified" as in "morally right" or as in "someone
(contemporaneously) tried to list reasons for doing it"?  The former is
almost guaranteed to start a little flame-war :-)

Comments: To: HISTORY%RUTVM1@RUTVM1.RUTGERS.EDU

Seeing the quote on democracy attributed to James Garfield reminded me
of the quote of the day in our local paper attributed to Oscar Wilde -

_Democracy means simply the bludgeoning of the people by the people for
the people._

Cheers,
 Jim Cocks
