When we arrived at the Uzbek post office, formerly a police station taken over
by a Baku winegrower, we approached the weariness that springs from
conjectures without Belgian applesauce in which to refine themselves. On the
wall the grim face of Alimanu Dzhaparidze reminded us of the clock, which in
turn reminded the inflated window of its already accomplished doom. turning
towards the policewoman, I asked for my sentence.

"Grammatical or nongrammatical?" she snapped, twisting my ear.

"Which is of greater benefit to me?" But the bells were chiming Gregorian, and
the Phrygian mode into which she had entered did little to convince me
otherwise. "Horoscopically I'm an Aeolian," I pleaded.

Taking out her stethoscope, she murmured cordially, "I sense a murmur in your
westerly-winded heart." I offered her the dry Gouda in my pocket for bail.

Typically, she claimed, "if there were such a word as jait, then bait would
get you out of jail. The criscross method." At that moment time intersected
itself, and Greenliver dived into her father's pool. How could I intend to
offend her when she was clearly approaching mental ecstasy? Rapt with murky
and unpleasant desire, I donned her with antique Dutch glasses fashioned by
Leeuwenhoek.

"You shouldn't have!" she gasped. "Even the Microbe Hunters would envy me. But
we won't tell them, will we?" I nodded Brazilian style, pulling my ear for
effective communication of samba enthusiasm.

If there had been another road, I would have opted for Danish salmon. But
there was no deposit and no return.

Is there a single site where FAQs from many groups are located? Such a

  I would suggest that you try to telnet to  found.paradise.ulcc.ac.uk
and login as "dua". With some info about the organization and name and country
of the person you want, an extensive search will take place. Good luck .

Comically enough, I am preparing to teach a course next week on an 
introduction to the internet, so I just happen to have some of 
the info that you need.

_The Whole Internet_ is written by Ed Krol, and is published by
O'Reilly and Associates.  I just got my copy a few weeks ago, and
it is wonderful.  If you are an Internet novice, it will take you right
from the basics through stuff that you might not need for years.  If
you are an internet pro, it'll give you great ways to explain things
to the internet novices on your floor, or in the classes you teach.  The
only problem is that its taught in UNIX syntax, (I'm a VMS type) so a little
bit of head scratching is required for the FTP section.

_The Hitchhikers Guide To The Interet_ was also written by Ed Krol, and 
was the predecessor to _The Whole Internet_.  I have not seen this work
myself, but if its anything like T.W.I., I'm sure its worth a perusal.

_Zen And The Art Of The Internet_ is available in both ascii and 
postscript versions on just about every major FTP site.  Asking archie
to search for "Zen" will usually turn up a ton of sites.  This excellent
resource was compiled by Brendan Kehoe.       

Well, I hope this was what you were looking for.

Ciao fer now,

Mark.

	Ask your system administrator to point you to a
	GOPHER site
	or ask if the service is available at your site.
	Then you can do your own research and summarize
	what you find for the net :-)

	Or you can read the misc.writing newsgroup and
	learn from other writers.

Absolutely, if you can avoid having to do vt100 emulation on a 3270
terminal do so by all means... but if you must, and many sites are still
stucked with old IBM-3270 terminals and mainframes then two packages
exist, Arty Ecock's (at CUNY) Tnvt100 for VM and my own (at UCLA)
package Xtelnet for MVS. They both deal with the generic problem of
emulating vt100 terminals in very creative ways and the result while far
from perfect is eminently useable.

In the front of any phone book, you will find the area codes for
all the the U.S. and Canada, etc. There is also a list, by state
and major cities of area codes.

I can't think of any place that is on the Internet, but I do
remember that it is one of the original HyperCard stacks (and
there are probably DOS equivalents).
