FOR SALE:
 
One way ticket (flipside of round trip) non-stop from
Milwaukee to Dallas (DFW) on 17 Nov 1992 at 3:25 P.M.  ($25
to change).  Best offer over $50.
 
This flight is on Midwest Express and if you've ever flown
this airline you know how good they are so this is a real
bargain.  If not, their in-flight service is outstanding,
their food is actually very good and their comfort is the
best in the skies.  Every seat is first/business class sized
and is either on a window or aisle.  The company is still
small enough to care about their passengers comfort but just
large enough to support most travel requirements,
particularly in the Midwest and East.

      + 7 optical disks (1.0, 2.0 and 2.1 extended systems on 3 of them, rest

      + 16 MB memory

      + Original keyboard and mouse
      + Sony mini microphone (this is the cool little black microphone that

I'm asking $5000 o.b.o. (I pay insured shipping UPS ground).

A new comparable NeXTcube system (list) would be ~$9000 *without* the OD,
disks, microphone, modem and developer documentation.  Such a deal!  What a

The Houston Chronicle recently (Feb?) reported that Houston was the
*worst* polluted city in North America when taking into account
ground, water and air pollution.

 Also, Houston's air quality had just hit the worst in the nation for
two reasons:
  - some particular "air polluting chemical" had been reclassified,
and there was a major source of this chemical somewhere near greater
LA.
  - The Phillips chemical plant that exploded dumped huge amounts of
crap into the air.

Any refrigerator experts out there?  My refrigerator just went dead last
weekend.  The temperature is higher in the refrigerator than my kitchen.
The motor and fan still work except it's not cold.  My friend said the
compressor is broken.  Fixing the compressor is the same as buying a
new refrigerator.  Any advice out there?  Does anyone know where can I
find a place that would fix the compressor for around $100-$150 in the
LA area?

thanks.

I have a poster from the Los Angeles County Transportation Commission
with the projected route system.  It pretty much follows the freeway
system.  The ones that exist or are being built are:
- LA-LB Blue Line
- Norwalk-El Segundo Green Line (roughly the new Century Freeway, 105)
- The Union Station-Wilshire/Alvarado Red Line, which will go on along
  the Hollywood Freeway into the west Valley, past Van Nuys.

The proposed lines:
- Downtown to Pasadena (110), continuing along the 210 in the San Gabriel
  Valley;  this one is actually going to be built shortly.
- Downtown to Glendale (2)
- Downtown to El Monte (10)
- Downtown to Norwalk (5)
- Downtown to San Pedro or thereabouts (110)
- Downtown to Santa Monica (10)
- Long Beach to LAX to Santa Monica, and on into the north Valley (405).

A "first stage alert" is still an ozone concentration of 200 parts per billion.
There were a fair number in the San Gabriel / Riverside valleys earlier this
warm summer.   A new level called "unheathful" started a couple years ago
at 138 ppb.  The official smog season runs from May 1 to Nov 1.  At the end
the newspapers print counts of bad days.

    I NEVER said I hadn't lived elsewhere.  I tried living elsewhere.
    I lived in Oregon for 6 months.  Granted I was there because I had
    to be.  I was taking care of my sister and her daughter when my
    sisters horse fell on her and broke her pelvis.  The people were 
    nice enough, and having NO STATE SALES TAX was GREAT!!!!!  BUT, 
    it snowed on the fourth of July for crying out loud.  I had the
    choice to stay there, I chose to come back here to CA.  Why?  
    BECAUSE, California is where I want to live.  My husband lived
    in Michigan for 24 years, he moved here.  And he sez, he wouldn't
    move back there. He has had enough of the Michigan winters. 

    All I tried to say was, if you don't like it here, then MOVE.
    Many people move here so that they can earn these high salaries 
    that California is so famous for, but you can't have one without 
    the other...so, in exchange for the salaries, you have high
    housing costs, lots of traffic, smog, and crime.  No one is
    forcing anyone to stay here.  But, if you chose to stay then 
    don't bitch about the traffic, smog, housing, etc.  Because you 
    do still have the choice to leave.

It appears the rest of the country follows Southern California's lead
on air quality issues; pollution controls on cars in the other 49 are
just coming up to Califonia's standards.  The news this year regarding
electric car development here was, well, electrifying.
  
I don't know whether or not to believe the AQMD, but they state the
air in L.A. is some great increment better than it was 15 years ago.
I can say that personally, my daily 6-mile run around Lake Hollywood
has become less difficult in the last few years when done in the
evening, perhaps indicating less smog.

If whining has contributed to our improvement, I will contribute by
whining.
