To all,

To war or not to war?  Objectively speaking, to war is to resolve the 
issue.  Would it be nice you always have your way?  Subjectively 
speaking, the method of warring is the complicating matter.

As far as I concern, we always have differences among ourselves as each
of us traverses different paths in the time-space continuum.  Thus, as we
cross paths, there will be times we need to 'resolve' our differences.

How do we resolve our differences if the others would not compromise?
After 'reasonable' arguement and the guy would not walk his way and I
walk my way, flame would be the last resort.

(Please, no baseball bat out side of SCV alright?  SCV is a delusion.
It's only as real as you want it to be.  No more than that.)

Would it be nice if SCV never had any quarel, flame?  However if peace
on SCV must pay with Chris Chu's farts then it will be too much.  If 
Chris Chu loves peace, would he care to stop farting?

>you that I have certainly known many people like you while playing in a
>band around Denver and while helping A&TT Bell Labs recruit at UCD five

>Five years ago, I and a colleague delivered our speech to the Vietnamese

Take this for an example:  A couple arriving late to a party where everyone
is expecting them:

  1.  Oh, sorry everyone, we had a fight on deciding to take "Bim Mo+"
        or the "Me.t Xe' DDi" to the party.
  2.  Oh, sorry everyone, we had a fight on deciding to take my car or
        my [wife/husband]'s car to the party.

I bet you Chris Chu will fart with statement number 1 from time to time.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
>Hee hee, thank anh Long Nguye^~n for the drawing 888-))) Just a few

Chris Chu is not welcomed at all.  He reminds me of the God-damned 
kind of 'automatic' roomate.  The kind of people who automatically 
(conveniently) borrow (and wear, tear & abuse) your possession.  As 
you found out in dismay, the person would simply 'inform' you:

     "Oh, you were not availble at the time to ask.  I am sure you 
would not mind sharing your [insert here] with me, wouldn't you?"

Longan - Ron No^` - In order to have peace, one has to kick (buds) hard.

P.S.  Chris Chu, how about having some thing of your original?  Your
      clone bird is rather ugly and violating the 3-D concept.  From
      bird 2 to bird 3, the front-left 3-D view switched to front-right!
      Do you understand what I am taling about?

to get those for various local offices in Florida (Miami,
Orlando, Tempa Bay, etc.).

I have sent the software to lam@tesla.ece.wisc.edu.  Hope he will be able to
establish a ftp site for us.  Just in case he can not, i may have to post the
whole thing on SCV.  There are a few things players should pay attention to:
1) There are 4 files: Chess.man (manual)
                      book.white
                      book.black
                      cch (exec. file).

2) There is a potentail bug in the software:

   qua^n ngu'.a ddo^'i fu'o'ng se~ ddu'o'.c move to the side of the chess
   table.  But sometimes the horse icon is not moved and remained on the
   table. If you run into any unexpected situation like this (there are some
   more), the best thing you can do is restart the game.

3) To play with machine, type cch -m

Hope you all enjoy the game.
I will post the PC version when I have time.

VIETNAM PROTESTS OVER CHINESE RAIDS ON SHIPS

    HANOI, Aug 31, Reuter - The Hanoi government protested on Monday against the
Chinese seizure of Vietnamese ships and cargo and urged the detained vessels be
released, saying Beijing was breaking maritime law and hurting bilateral
relations.
    The Vietnamese Foreign Ministry also said Hanoi officials were in contact
with Chinese authorities in an attempt to resolve the issue.
    The ministry said in a statement that Chinese authorities recently detained
Vietnamese ships that had left Hong Kong, or were sailing between China's Hainan
Island and the mainland, without informing the Hanoi government.
    "This action does not conform with international maritime law, with
Vietnamese-Chinese relations which have been officially normalised, and with the
cooperation between the maritime industries of Vietnam and China," the statement
said.
    It said some ships had been released, while others and their cargo were
still being held.
    "The concerned Vietnamese bodies are continuing contacts with the Chinese
side on this issue to resolve it for the benefit of Vietnamese-Chinese
cooperation," the ministry said.
    One senior Vietnamese maritime expert said on Monday that Chinese traders
had been smuggling cars, electronics and other luxury goods from Hong Kong to
China through Vietnam to avoid import duty.
    He said the Vietnamese government had adopted a special decision in August
to try to stop that smuggling. But he said China was wrong to unilaterally seize
Vietnamese vessels and impound cargo.
    "That action by China is not correct. To fight smuggling, you should first
have a good idea that the items on that ship are being smuggled," he told
Reuters, asking not to be identified.
    Shipping agents in Hong Kong say Chinese officials have raided up to 14
ships carrying goods to Vietnam in the past five weeks, and confiscated cargos
and registration papers.
    Michael Farlie, director of the Hong Kong Ship Owners Association, said in
Hong Kong on Sunday the raids might be part of an official Chinese crackdown on
the smuggling of luxury goods into China through Vietnam's northeastern port of
Hong Gai.
    The parking area outside the Vuon Dao Hotel in Ha Long Bay, a resort town
just south of Hong Gai, was filled last weekend with brand-new Japanese cars and
Vietnamese trucks loaded with cargo.
    Local people said the cars and trucks were headed for China.
    The Hong Kong government has demanded an explanation from China of an
incident on Friday in which a Vietnamese cargo ship was boarded in Hong Kong
waters by armed men believed to be Chinese security guards.
    Vietnam's trade with China has increased rapidly since they normalised
relations last November. They had been on frosty terms since 1979, when China
launched a punitive border war against Vietnam following the latter's invasion
of Cambodia.

		"Show me, show me how you do that trick
		 The one that makes me scream" she said.
		"The one that makes me laugh" she said
		 And threw her arms around my neck
		"Show me how you do it
		 And I promise you I promise that
		 I'll run away with you
		 I'll run away with you"
	
		Spinning on that dizzy edge
		I kissed her face and kissed her head
		And dreamed of all the different ways I had
		To make her glow
		"Why are you so far away?" she said
		"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
		That I'm in love with you"

		You
		Soft and only
		You
		Lost and lonely
		You
		Strange as angels
		Dancing in the deepest oceans
		Twisting in the water
		You're just like a dream

		Daylight licked me into shape
		I must have been asleep for days
		And moving lips to breath her name
		I opened up my eyes
		And found myself alone alone
		Alone above a raging sea
		That stole the only girl I loved
		And drowned her deep inside of me

		You
		Soft and only
		You
		Lost and lonely
		You
		Just like heaven


Have a sunny and happy day ;))

INDIA TO IMPORT MORE RICE FROM VIETNAM

NEW DELHI (AUG. 26) XINHUA - INDIA IS NEGOTIATING WITH VIETNAM ON THE IMPORT OF
360,000 TONNES OF RICE FROM THAT COUNTRY.

A CONTRACT TO THIS EFFECT WAS SIGNED HERE RECENTLY, LOCAL PRESS REPORTED TODAY.

THOUGH INDIA HAS BEEN INSISTING ON IMPORTING HALF A MILLION TONNES OF RICE FROM
VIETNAM, THERE HAVE BEEN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE TWO COUNTRIES ON THE PRICE OF
RICE, THE REPORT SAID.

WHILE INDIA HAS BEEN INSISTING ON PURCHASING THE RICE AT THE INTERNATIONAL
PRICE, VIETNAM IS LEARNT TO HAVE PITCHED THE PRICE A BIT TOO HIGH.

SOURCES SAY THAT VIETNAM IS OFFERING ITS RICE TO INDIA AT 195 U.S. DOLLARS A
TONNE WHEREAS ITS LAST SALE IN THE INTERNATIONAL MARKET WAS FOR 178 U.S.
DOLLARS A TONNE.

HOWEVER, INDIA WAS ABLE TO PERSUADE A VISITING VIETNAMESE TEAM TO SUPPLY
140,000 TONNES OF RICE AT AROUND 178 U.S. DOLLARS A TONNE. NEGOTIATIONS FOR THE
BALANCE QUANTITY ARE CONTINUING AND OFFICIALS ARE HOPEFUL OF CLINCHING THE DEAL
SHORTLY.
