While all of you apparently use lint-free dust cloths
(or desire to do so) I have here the fabulous
New Pig Dust Cloth(tm) - "Pigs out on dust".

According to the container:

     The superior New Pig Dust Cloth loves dust as
     much as you hate it!  Because it's made of DuPont's
     revolutionary new dust-attracting fabric.  Quite
     simply, it works like a magnet by electrostatically
     attracting and trapping dust inside its fabric...

The address at the bottom is

     New Pig Dust Cloth
     Pig Place
     One Pork Avenue
     Tipton, PA 16684-0304

This reminds me of something that I have wanted to ask, knowing that
somebody out there would know the answer....  Who recorded the
popular version of that wonderful song _Love Potion Number 9_?
In a great bar in Georgetown, Mr. Smith's, I heard a blind piano
man play and sing it and I have been trying to find the recording
ever since.  Who is it?

Isn't the fact that sexual intercourse involves the man penetrating
the woman the source of much of the perception of pornography
as necessarily demeaning to women?  And of the pervasive imagery of
sex-as-violence in everyday vulgar speech?  How can you ever get
away from the implication that sexual intercourse *is* characterized
by male aggressiveness, whether one likes the implications or not?
the Enquirer wants to know.

Face to face, at least you get the additional input of facial
expression, tone of voice, body language, etc. On the net, all
that is available is the written word and the history of past
interactions. Some attempts to convey expression have crept in,
:-) but there is an awful lot still missing from communication.
The potential to be misunderstood is increased and I suspect
that the temptation to lie is also (just a guess with nothing to
base it on). I don't want to give the impression that I feel
threatened by this medium - only that I am fascinated by the
different set of rules and expectations from face to face
communication.

I think we're using the term tracking slightly differently.

I was using it to refer to the practice of offering classes
at different levels for students of different abilities in a
given subject (for instance, basic, regular and honors
physical science at my high school).  A student could
in theory be enrolled in honors physics, basic reading and
jewelry (yes, we had a class on making jewelry!) without
problems.  The tracking is by ability in a subject, and
students can change from one level to another without much
hassle.

I think you are referring to college-bound vs. vocational tracking.
To some extent this is the fixed interlocking of various ability
classes along with additional classes that are available only
to certain level students.  This is indeed ridiculous.

I hatehatehatehate the growing egalitarian movement to stick
all the kids in one type of class since "the bright kids will
be challenged by helping the slow kids".  Absolute bullshit.

any interesting answers.  Just none useful for my specific purposes.)
I've heard and read many times that the U.S. style of consistently putting
periods and commas inside the ending quotation mark, regardless of the
role of the quotation in the sentence, is a result of the history of U.S.
printing.  How do people know that?  In other words, I'm seeking sources

Sorry to quote so much, but I needed the corraborating details.  Rita,
this is doubly weird, because a friend of mine is friends with a woman who
knew the woman who was murdered.  Patricia (my friend) had this horrible
bad dream and then spoke to Nancy (her friend; and despite the
proliferation of familiar names these women are not my daughter and my
mother).  Nancy told her then that this friend of hers had been murdered,
et cetera, et cetera.

Since then, I have seen the woman's death announced publicly in alt.pagan
on the Internet, and now I find it here in words-l.  Very weird indeed,
and yes very disgusting that the dispatcher types screwed up so badly.

Okay, I'll shut up now, but I just thought I'd mention this example of
just how small a world it really is.

I think that half of my friends with school-age kids are home-schooling
them, mostly for religious reasons.  From what I've read, home-schooled kids
tend to test ahead [academically] of public school kids the same age.
