I have no idea where to post this question, so it goes here...

What is a good way to care for your car dash?  Are there plusses/minuses
to using baby oil, Armor-all, etc?  Do these products cause the dash to dry
up or crack in the long run?  Any suggestions or comments?

You're most likely to find RHCP et. al. on WKNC 7pm-10pm Mon-Thurs, on WXDU
(although I don't know their format schedule), and on WXYC intermixed between
Ella Fitzgerald, ABBA, the Trio Bulgarka, and all the other stuff they like to
mix together. (I like WXYC :-). As far as reception, you can't get WXYC or
WXDU in Raleigh very well, nor can you get WKNC in Durham/CH (unless they've
gotten more powerful recently). Good listening!

Subject: Free-Net organizing meeting (repost to triangle.freenet)
Organization: Extended Bulletin Board Service
Distribution: triangle
Date: Sun, 23 Aug 1992 00:45:08 GMT

An organizational meeting will be held August 25 at 5:30 p.m. in the
seminar room of the William & Ida Friday Continuing Education Center in
Chapel Hill to discuss the possibility of developing a "Free-Net" for the
Research Triangle area. 

Free-Nets provide free, computer/modem-based services connecting local
people to one another and to local information. They provide access to a
wide variety of public information about local governments, schools,
businesses, the arts, the environment, health, and human services. They
also provide electronic mail, discussion groups, and ask-an-expert
services. Further, they provide access to electronic information
worldwide. 

There currently are Free-Net systems operating in Cleveland, Youngstown,
Cincinnati, and Medina County, Ohio, and Peoria, Illinois, and formal
organizing committees have been established in several cities worldwide.
These systems are operated by the community (the Cleveland Free-Net has
more than 300 volunteers operating it.)

At the public meeting, we will show a 15-minute video describing the
Free-Net in Peoria (which tells better than words what Free-Nets are).
Following the video we will discuss how the Free-Net concept could be
applied in the RTP area, and hopefully sign people and organizations to
become information providers, discussion leaders, and supporters.

A variety of skills would be needed to develop and maintain this service;
for example:
 -- artistic/verbal skills to develop promotional materials
 -- business skills to develop a business plan
 -- computer skills to plan, implement, and maintain the 
       hardware and software
 -- human factors skills to ensure that the local implementation
       is easy to use
 -- legal skills to keep the organization out of trouble
 -- mover/doer skills to obtain valuable information,
       as well as funding
 -- professional skills to lead electronic discussion groups and to
       research answers to questions
 -- secretarial skills to do typing, maintain mailing lists,
       answer the phone
 -- writing and training skills to teach people how to use the
       service and how to maintain it. 

If you are interested in the Free-Net but cannot attend the organizing
meeting, please let me know.

	No, its just that the bit.* groups are sort of a hit and miss
venture in vast areas of the net.  They tend to be gatewayed locally and
not passed around the area too much.  (At least that is my
understanding of it.)

	I'd love to have some of the bit groups made available for
pickup in the local area.

The notice looks ok. I am interested in attending on 25 Aug. 

I would like the Triangle to have a bbs similar to, based on, or actually
using the Freeport software. I heard or read somewhere on the freenets
that the software could be rented for $1.00 per year. I hope that is true.
The Cleveland and Youngstown freenet systems of organization are the most
attractive to me.

I am a registered user of all the freenets except Medina and Lorain. The 
menu systems took me some time to learn when I first started exploring. I'm 
not sure I would suggest any changes though. The organization of the 
information is reasonably well laid out.

Considering the number of computer, networking, telecommunications, and
related businesses in this area, there may be many opportunities for local
companies to offer assistance in their fields of expertise in developing a
community based and supported bulletin board system.

A bed and a formica kitchen table remain in our house in
Durham.  They are available free to a good home; new owners
must provide pickup and transportation.  

The bed is a queen size bed -- a frame, box spring, and
mattress -- no head or footboards.  The bed is a bit
old, and the mattress and boxsprings have lost their
youthful glow, but it all still works.  

The kitchen table is made of metal and formica.  It has
2 leaves to make it even bigger and better.  It's a
standard table kind of a size.  (The tape measure is packed
in the car.)

Contact me by email at stigle@cs.unca.edu if you're
interested.  I'll keep track of the order I receive

We are heading to Asheville tomorrow.  I'll have

1. This is a pretty blatant ad, and probably violates the prohibition of 
"commercial activity" on the Internet. Despite this group being
named triangle.FORSALE, the intent is for non-commercial use, in
the spirit of a yard sale (even if you're selling your yard (house)).

2. Based on the above description, I'd bet that he is a dealer for NSA,
a manufacturer (reseller?) of water and air filters. They are very hyped,
