	Earl Snead Sinclair <--- Sinclair's symbol was a green brontosaurus
	Ethyl Phillips <--- Phillips Petroleum
	B.P. Richfield <--- British Petroleum & Atlantic-Richfield
	Roy Hess <--- Hess is a gas station chain

That's about all the oil company names which are still eponyms (i.e. the
real name of a real person).  By using names of real people, they can
lamely argue that no satire of a specific company is intended.  If they
started using Boron, Sohio, Sunoco, Exxon, Amoco, etc. they might run
into legal problems :)

I suppose Shell, Getty, Sun and Clark and maybe Marathon are available.

Last night it was finally shown positively (at least as far as I remember)
what sex Baby Sinclair was.

Fran told her daughter: "Charlene, take your brother upstairs" Or something
like that. I know it is a re-run (I think) but it was a first for me seeing it.

There was a lot of talk about this early on in the newsgroup - also the 
point that the "WESAYSO" logo looked like the Dupont logo. I'm not sure who 
archives this group, but the postings might be there...

Hello,
   I am in the beginning stages of setting up a new BBS.  To help make my
board a little more graphically appealing, I was wondering if there is a
ANSI graphical text editor available.  I would prefer something that is 
available via FTP, but any suggestions would be helpful.
   I am running my bulletin board on a Macintosh, and would prefer a mac
app, but DOS or windows would also be helpful.

Thanx in advance,

I am running a BBS for fun, but I belive the software that I am using 
might benifit you.  It's called SHS(Steve Harke Systems)  I belive that it 
can do all of the things you want, and is easy to run and use.

Sorry, but what you are thinking about is a phone secretary (I hope that is 
the right word). What's the news??? 
You have a code for every user, you enter it in a terminal, SAY your message, 
and that's over!!
If you mean that calling a BBS you can leave a voice message, well I think that
this is quite useless, according to the spirit of a BBS.

Kevin..

Fidonet is a loosley-based organization of bbs sysops who have created
an international network of newsgroups and information.  It is not
connection-oriented, as is internet, but is based on passing mail packets
between sites.  To send to someone on the fidonet, get their address. The
address will be something like:

Firstname Lastname 1:157/200

From internet, address it as follows:

Firstname.Lastname@f200.n157.z1.fidonet.org

and cross you fingers.  I know for a fact that if the address you are  
sending to is in NE ohio, it gets dumped into a black hole, never to be
seen.  However I have it on good authority that this SHOULD work.

There are some documents floating around which may tell you more.  If
you need more info, netmail me...

The Linux dox are not always uptodate. If you want Linux, GNU shell utilities,
GNU text utilities, bison, make, GCC, G++, mtools, etc. then get the MCC
Interim release. There is also a SLS distribution, which is substantially
bigger and probably more complete, but I can't tell you nothing more about that
since I never tried it.

	Jerod, you need 2 things.  First is Tmail, the Shareware scanner/tosser
for the TBBS message base.  Secondly, you'll need a copy of Fredgate, version
19M, which you can FTP from zeus.ieee.org.
