As the school year begins for many people, it is time to introduce 
myself once again.  I'm Bob Shayler, a co-moderator for this 
K12_SR_CHAT echo.  With occasional lapses of sanity, I don't really 
think this echo needs much moderation but just to make it a little 
more likely that great opportunities like K12_SR_CHAT will 
continue, given the need of some to control what may be posted on 
networks, I'll be here.
 
My regular profession is teaching physics, integrated science, and 
math/computers at a high school in San Leandro, California, USA.  
I've been involved in computer telecom and BBSes for almost a full 
decade.  This year, I sysop two FrEdMail and one K12net systems.  
All of my science students have accounts on one or more BBSes (it 
is required in my classes).  Some even post messages.  I got 
started in this medium at the instigation of an ex-student so 
very long ago.
 
You probably won't be hearing too much from me unless the spirit 
moves a message or two on some favorite topic.  As I view it, my 
"job" here is to make sure that people understand the culture of 
this civilized and free network.  The "Etiquette" message following 
details the "rules," but my personal sense is that anything may be 
posted which you may also say in the presence of teachers at your 
school.  If in my opinion someone has crossed that line (as unclear 
as it may be) I will send netmail to the author and maybe the sysop 
of their BBS.  I don't want to clutter up this echo with my public 
rantings to someone about their rantings and so on.  I don't like 
flames no matter who posts them!
 
The self-government which has characterized this echo in the recent 
past is far better than anything I could do to maintain the 
civilization here.  Most K12net systems are part of some school 
activity, however, and we all know what can happen when self-
control slips away...
 
The main point is that K12net and K12_SR_CHAT in particular are 
great opportunities for everyone to meet and talk with people they 
might otherwise never know.  This network and this echo may just 
help us all to understand each other better and enhance the chances 
for peace in the future.  With that in mind, you might guess that I 
would hope for messages filled with playful chatting and serious 
inquiry rather than snide remarks and opinionated put-downs.  The 
diversity of people exchanging messages here is very enlightening, 
exciting, and positive.  I hope this kind of message exchange will 
continue in the future.

Hello Yvonne, do you remember me?  I wonder, have you got that letter I sent you yet?  Well, I am very sorry I was unable to call you during the summer, I did not realize it was long distance from my Grandma's place to yours, and I didn't want to ring up a long distance charge.  Well, my summer has been pretty uneventful, except for the few letters I have recieved from Bekki.  Well, I will leave you now.  TTYL Clayton Bober

Hello, I'm Ben Garrod, I go to Puyallup High school. I work on the
newpaper(3rd year). I'm in track(shotput and discus).I'm a 17 year old(18 next 
month) senior. I've been modeming for 8 years,and have ran a few BBS's. I am
into RPGS, computers(modeming, playing games, programming), and I collect and
sell comics. I enjoy meeting new people( met a ton this weekend at Central
Washington University). I drive a '77 Toyota Pickpup. Have one sister(17 in 2
months) If you have any questions about me just ask.
 One thing, I have and will be trying in the future to get people like us more 
rights at school and out of school. You might think that we have alot of
rights but it isn't true, that I have learned being on a newspaper. You
wouldn't believe the amount of censorship there is in this state when it comes 
to teens trying to speak there minds.

Hey Melinda, how are you?  Did you get home alright, or are you still camping out? <grin>
Year 12 -18 years, eh? (there's that Canadian stereo-type again.  I even type with an accent!).
I'm 19, and in 3rd year college myself.  Actually, first day of classes is tomorrow.
Yeah, the Eskimos treat us good.  After we have a hard day harpooning seals out on the tundra, they let us share their igloos.  But, after the -60 degrees celcius weather, anything is a treat! <ha ha ha>.
 
What in the world is a Chillbain?
 
Well, I can't talk now, so I'll write more later.
Hope to hear from you again...
 
Later-much.

A little kocky......yeah, I understand.  I sometimes get kinda kocky too...
but that's only when I'm joking around; never serious.
Nothing's really happening since school is just around the corner. Well, 
right now, I'm waiting for my new modem to arrive...hopefully it'll get here
before school starts so that I can play with it and get it set up properly.
I'll probably need it to fax my assignments to the university.
"Hairspray Game"???? What's that?  The parents bring the hairspray? Hmmm..
sounds kinda funny. :] Gotta go!

How can you say that it is a harsh statement, when it is true. The United States is a first world country, the government treats education like we live in Bangledesh. I'm not putting down Bangledesh or anything, but the United States ranks only among third world countries. No, I didn't say that Australia is one of the leading countries of the world. What do you mean by leading, leading what? Education, kangaroos, what? Does Australia have an army? Do they do anything?

i can see it now, your worst nightmare.....

   It is dark, you are in the computer room.  You sit down to log on, and as soon as you pressa key.....Stacey appears behind you!  You turn around and before you can say a word, she says "Hi there anne". Then there is another one of her.  You try to tell her to go away, but she says "how are you?"

  Then there is anothe one of her, and another, and yet another.  Soon the whole computer room is full of Staceys saying "So there!" over and over again. Your heart beats, you try to run but the bars on the computer room keep you in, all the while playing in the
background is Lisa Edwards' "Cry"

  You wake up in a cold sweat, screaming.  And panting, realise, "Phew, it was just a dream!"

Hi Norma!

Friday August 28 1992, Norma Layton writes to Rik Lister:

 NL>   Long time no hear! I thoroughly enjoyed my trip to England and
 NL>   Scotland. I went to: London, Milton Keynes, Aylesbury, Liverpool,
 NL>   Hawick, Peebles, Edinburgh, and Glasgow. So I was tired out by the
 NL>   time I got there.

It's wierd to me, seeing all those cities as holiday resorts, I suppose it's because I'm used to seeing people saying they've been to France or Florida for their holidays :-)

 NL>   No, I wasn't bored. I had watched those two shows the last time I
 NL>   was there so I missed a bit but I noticed it didn't really change
 NL>   that much. The soap operas over in England and Scotland are a lot
 NL>   better than here. I did watch Coronation St., which it seems to me
 NL>   that almost everybody watches.

Did you see Emerdale ? - That's filmed not too far from where I live... Coronation Street is one of the most popular, they just don't seem to appeal to me, I don't really have the time to keep up with them, always got other things to do... Did you see the new one, "Elderado" - it's set in Spain and they were predicting it to be a massive hit, but so far it's been a complete flop !! :-)

 NL>   I've started college and it's really fun. I only have four
 NL>   classes. Two on Monday and Wednesday and 2 on Tuesday and
 NL>   Thursday.

I've got exactly a week to go until I go back to my school...

 NL>   The books are so expensive. I bought at chemistry book
 NL>   and it was $45. that's about 22.50 pounds and the book was
 NL>   paperback.

That's about how much you would expect to pay in England for an inch thick full colour hardback, unless it was something very specialised, then they're always a lot more...

 NL>   I found that most things is the UK were expensive, but
 NL>   the value of the dollar was a lot higher also.

That's what a lot of people say, I suppose the exchange rates not that easy to work out quickly - not like the French franc, where you just knock a nought off :-). Where do you think the biggest price difference is. When I've been to the rest of Europe, we find that Electronics and things like that are always considerably more than in the UK...

 NL> Well I gotta start on my homework. Hear from you soon.

Urghh.. I'm going to start getting that again soon... Which reminds me, I've still got about 3 tons of Maths and English Holiday to do before I go back.. <groan>...

Lots'a Luv... Rik

O.K.  Well, I guess you're still stuck on that total profit thing, But I 
still can't agree with you.  There are still a bunch of people left, 
that have more things important to them than money.  You are right about 
that cigarettes are much more dangerous.  I have the same feeling about 
cigarettes, as I do for pot.  I did a 6 page research paper on 
cigarettes.  To answer your question...No, I've never smoked pot (or 
anything for that matter...), and I don't plan on it.  First of all, 
It's disgusting, and second of all I'm a Christian.  (So I gotta be a 
good little girl <grin>).  I just heard last night that Pot was 
legalized in some part of California or something.   I don't know what 
that is about, but anyway...

-

You said that you think abortions should stay legal?  How come?  I could 
argue both sides of that...I'm more on the side that people should stay 
away from them...

-

Um...lessee...I do live in Fl.  (Sarasota).  All of the schools were 
canceled, but all that ended up happening in our part of the city was it 
was just a nasty day out.  Where are you from?  Have you been watching 
the news?  Miami got trashed!  63,000 homes were destroyed.  I wonder 
where all the people are gonna go?  Well, I got homework to do...(what 
grade are you in?)  I'm in 12th...look forward to hearin' from ya 
again...

BE COOL AND SMILE...   :)

 KO> a Sharks fan!)

Didn't you know it's not polite to suck-up? Just kidding. Thank
goodness I don't rely on your memory. I hate the Sharks. My hockey
team is in Canada. Anything come to mind yet?

 KO> Really?  You won't even go down in the day?  It's zat bad?!
 KO> How big is Oakland, anyways?

 Acutally Oakland isn't that bad, but you find more than drunks down
 there. It's not going to downtown Vancouver or anything(pardon the
 example, but I've never been to Calgary). There is a lot of drug
 dealing going on eventhough you can't see it you can feel it. At
 night there are some shoot outs. So you can understand my point
 here. I would have thought that you've heard of Oakland. Whenever I
 go on vacation and tell people I'm from Oakland they shudder at the
 thought so I have to tell them that I live but the Mormon Temple,
 which is kind of in the rich area. About a mile away from the
 Oakland Hills fire that happened last October.

 I did manage to get a car 2 days before school started so I'm
 learning how to drive it. It's a 1980 VW Jetta 5 sp called "The
 Silver Bullet" (I wonder why?) So I'm still stuck taking the BART
 and bus for two weeks because to get the insurance I have to be
 present and I don't exactly have any free time on my hands.

 KO> And sometime, I might even find enough willpower to reply to it!

 Sometime soon please. My mailbox has been empty for the longest
 time and I'm so depressed because You haven't written me in....
 <sniff,snob, honk!!> o.k I'll try to calm down.....
