     Okay, I scanned 'em all just to see who would come up with the "Sweet Home

     In "Hotel California", Henley sings:

     "They stab it with their steely knives,
      but they just can't kill the beast.."

     This was a barb tossed in the general direction of Steely Dan, for reasons
I am unaware of at this moment.  Some sort of feud, I'm not sure.  However, I

You're in luck.  He doesn't sing on this one.
I haven't been able to listen to it very much since I bought it last night,
but there is some great stuff on it.

10 songs,  47+ minutes, so he didn't skimp too much on this album.

The song "Why" has been playing in my head all day.  It's a funky tune
with  some tasteful harmonizer effects in it.  Maybe I'll review the
album and post to here or rec.music.reviews.

Hi Mark,
	The software that you have requires Novell's Lan Workplace for DOS.  
It is an approx. $8K package that contains the DLL that WAIS is looking for.
My current solution is using PCWAIS (a DOS app) running in a window.  You 
can get this from THINK.COM anonymously.  

Give it a try,  Lee

P.S.  You may want to move this discussion to Comp.Infosystems.WAIS,  I 
believe you may find a larger readerbase there.

I have just, finally, gotten around to reading the WAIStation User Guide
(very nicely done!).  In this document (page 2) I see a Source reference
to "Macintosh Hard Disk."  Am I correct in assuming that this means that
one could create a WAIS source that "points" to ones own hard drive (or
a subdirectory), then ask WAIStation to go find files that match certain
criteria?

In my simple-minded fashion, I tried to create a new Source and identified
my own hard drive, but when I tried to pose a question I found that I
needed a hash table etc (of course).  

Advice on how to proceed or abandon this line of thinking would be most
welcome.

Jamie, 

Brewster Kahle et.al., in "Interfaces for Distributed Systems of Information
Servers", a paper presented at the ASIS mid-year meeting in May, 1992, say
this:

"Any client which is capable of translating a user's request into the standard
protocol can be used in the system.  Likewise, any server capable of answering
a request encoded in the protocol can be used.  A WAIS server can be located
anywhere that one's workstation has access to: on the local machine, on a
network, or on the other end of a modem.  The user's workstation keeps track of
a variety of information about each server."

According to Kahle, at this same meeting, both Thinking Machines and KPMG Peat
Marwick employ WAIS servers in accessing corporate (internal) data from shared
databases and personal files on hard disk as well as the external servers we
know from WAIS. 

Obviously, this can be done, but, like you, I've had no luck finding that great
set of clear instructions on how to go about it.

I was talking to my sister the other evening, and she told me of a dream
she had -- really, really weird, and disturbing.  I was wondering if
maybe anyone here could shed any light.  Here it is.

She has to get to work, but the trains aren't running (she lives in New
York City) and she can't take her car.  Things are further complicated
by the fact that, seemingly overnight, there has sprung up this huge
marshy/swampy area between herself and the place where she works.  This
marsh is full of snakes, absolutely swarming with them.  She realizes
that if she's going to get to work, she's going to have to swim through
the snakes.  A person on shore tells here that she's never going to make
it, but she plunges in anyway.

She manages to get almost all the way there without incident, although
she can feel the snakes slithering around her under the water.  She has
almost reached the other side when she gets bitten by one of the snakes.

She runs screaming from the swamp and goes up to this woman's house
yelling that she needs help, she's been bitten by a cobra.  At first the
woman doesn't want to help her -- thinks she's crazy, but when the woman
realizes that she needs medical attention, she starts helping.
Catherine (my sister) knows that if she doesn't get to the hospital
soon, she will die.  She wakes up before the resolution of the dream

Background:

She works for a truly evil woman, who has only recently been appointed
as her superior.  This woman is a back-stabbing, manipulative,
calculating type of person -- very dangerous.

Her job has been extremely high-pressure, especially recently.  She
works long hours and does a tremendous job, but this woman is determined
to claim all the praise for the finished product.

My initial interpretation:

The swamp, instead of representing an obtacle to work, may represent her
work itself.  She is swimming with some very dangerous people.  Just as
she has almost finished her work (almost finished getting to the other
side) her boss stabs her in the back (the cobra bite).  What the woman
on the other side means, I have no idea.  Questions, comments, other
interpretations?

i strongly feel that if the group is called alt.paranormal.out-of-body, it will
severely limit the subjects that get discussed and will be less than
supportive.  the discussion on obes in alt.paranormal now is for the most part
limited to a discussion on whether or not they are "real" in the physical
matter sense.  if alt.paranormal.out-of-body is created, the same people will
move their discussion on obes there.  that is a much narrower focus than i
would like to see the group have.  i feel that as a top-level newsgroup it
would be well-used and less limited.

I haven't had this experience, but many experiences of this sort have appeared
here.  You are in a dream state - hence dream paralysis (We are not able to
move our muscles while dreaming, otherwise we might get hurt acting out our
dreams).  Many times buzzing has been reported as a prelude to an out-of-body
experience.  Some have reported being able to 'roll out' of their bodies at
this time.

one that i was making good progress with before i stopped really using it (i've
been much too impatient and tense lately to really try to obe) is to imagine
myself lying the other way in bed.  also, imagining oneself going up and up and
up and up and up and not letting anything keep one from going up.  or falling
too is rather a nice sensation.  while i've never gone out of body from the
waking state, i was making progress with these basic tools.  imagining oneself
roll out also can be helpful.  i'd like to hear other people's methods too;
what's old to you might be news to the rest of us.

I have this kind of dream all the time, but I don't know what it means,
either, if it means anything.  One time it almost got me in a very
embarrassing situation, though.  I dreamt I had turned into a fish, and I
swam around quite happily for a while.  Then I discovered that I had to
empty my bladder, and I looked around for a bathroom for a while.  Then it
occurred to me that I was a fish, so I should just go into the water.  I
woke up before anything really serious happened, but it was a close thing.
