Now do you supose that as the number of washes aproaches infinity.....

The shirt becomes increaseingly dingy as the number of washes increases..
	and
		-The Shirt at infinity turns into angst itself.
		-The Shirt at infinity reaches a constant finite dingyness.
	or
The shirt retains a constant dingyness throughout infinity.

	or
The shirt becomes decreasingly dingy with each wash, and thus reaches
a point constant dingyness, at some finite point.

	or
The shirt becomes decreasingly dingy with each wash, and thus never
actually becomes dingy.

	or
The shirt becomes decreasingly dingy with each wash, but at infinity
still reaches angst itself?

You're kidding. You mean I have to take the initiative if I want to
mold the world to my ends?
 I guess I should consider myself lucky that I'm already wealthy,
healthy, great looking, intelligent, creative , irresistible to women
and a model of well adjusted humanhood.
 In fact I think I'll stop reading this newsgroup!

Now that the subject of Pop tarts has surfaced again, I have just
realized that it has been 4 months at least since I have even *seen* a
Pop Tart.  The double chocolate ones are great.  Yes, I eat them raw,
cooked, with a spoon or fork, in bed, outside, outside in bed,

Yeah, "but its a *dry* heat".  That's what they say as you blink

Think of it this way Ed, today it was about 95 F here and about 95%
humidity.  Basically, this means that your body's cooling system shuts
down completely.  I had goose bumps all day.

Its an Alpha thing, we aren't meant to understand.
I feel the same way. Nobody ever told me what to do and what not
to as far as normal human social interactions go. Its just like
"Well, here's this world full of people, you figure out how to deal
with them". Thanks guys!

Fortunately by trial and error, over the years, I think I've been

I used to have this problem, so I did just what you're suggesting.
Started hanging out with a different group of people and made up
my own rules. It took a while and some effort, but I think it was worth it.
No, I'm not getting boinked every night,in fact, its actually made it

Angst is like selling yourself on the archetypal corporate rungs of pissy-
business (that is, minus the nepotism, but I'm sure that someone will come
out with genetic evidence of inherited angst) ..the only hope you have is
usually derived from the hopelessness of others..  We step on each others'
shoes.

Now imagine a misfit club for those of us who spice-up our life with hours of
Weltschmerz-- first meeting discusses the fact that some of us have angst
over pronounciation of foreign words :)

When I first looked at this newsgroup, I looked at the posting's contents to
see what it was all about, after all, a title is merely that, a title.

If you are Angsting about the fact that the title does not reflect the 
contents, then that is alright, that is a valid Angst and we can have a little
discussion (with a nice bit of flaming) about that, but if your intention is to
flame the entire newsgroup then I think you should go elsewhere.  After all, we
do outnumber you considerably and many of us would prefer to do violent things
to you, get arrested, convicted and then spend a long time safely in jail than
to continue with our puny, black, bleak, insignificant little existences on 
this overheating, over irradiated, racially and sexually segregated ball of 
capitalistically exploited pus we call the Earth.  (Wish I was a dolphin....)

Organization: Spuddy's Public Usenet Domain

I have been following the _discussions_ about who does and who doesn't have
angst that seem to be propogating at the moment and would just like to chip
in my $0.02.

As far as my personal experience goes angst is a very personal thing ;-)
[or should HHOS be ;-( in alt.angst ?].
By this I mean that what is trivial to one person can mean a lot to others.
In some cases I have felt angst over trivial matters even recognising them
to be trivial, which generally causes secondary angst along the lines of 
`why should I be so worried about something so trivial'.

But isn't that what a lot of angst is like, ie feeling anxious over small
matters. Is it really angst if your in an accident and don't know if you'll
ever walk again ! Maybe it is but somehow I think not, so give us all a break
and let us get on with feeling angst without having to worry if its angst or
not.

Obangst: I can fool myself into acting the Alpha male (Inconsiderate,
Bigotted etc.) and having a good time with all the other Alphas.
But if I slow down or take a breather, the real me (caring, thoughtful etc.)
comes through and I suffer depression and angst (no SO, is job secure etc.)
and worst of all angst because I feel I'm somehow cheating myself by
playing the Alpha male.

I think shdr is an OpenLook (i.e. Sun flavour X) package like this.

Keywords: Sun IPC, diskless, boot
Organization: University of Maryland University College
Date: Mon, 27 Jul 1992 16:54:24 GMT

Have a Sun IPC with a clobbered internal hard disk and need to boot
the think diskless in order to get some software back into it.  We
have several other Sun SPARC systems (IPC, II's, etc), and want to
make one of them available for a diskless boot of this poor IPC
over the ethernet.  How do I set up one of these running machines
to do this?  It looks like as if one file to set up is '/etc/bootparams'
but my concern is that if I export the root file system of one of
my working Suns to the one that needs to be booted diskless, that
this may not be a good idea as the Sun being booted diskless may
decide to overwrite partitions on the server Sun.  Do I need to
make a copy of the root partition and its directories to another
area and export this via /etc/bootparams?  I don't want to set
this up in any kind of permanent way, so don't need anything fancy,
just need to boot this Sun IPC with the clobbered hard disk so I
can re-newfs it and re-install SunOS.

Thanks.

                                    Eindhoven Netherlands 24 juli 1992




At the moment I have a problem running the SUNLINK OSI software.

We used to use a 
       SUN3-280 Release 4.1.1, 
          sunlink OSI/MHS/X25 version 7.0 with bug fixes id:100480
and now we are using
       SUN4-330 Release 4.1.2,
          sunlink OSI/MHS/X25 version 7.0 with bug fixes id:100480

On the SUN3 systems everything worked OK.
The configuration files (/etc/sunlink/OSI/*) are the same on both
systems.
Our SUN4 system has a problem with incoming OSI connections,
outgoing OSI connections just work fine.

Starting the tsapd at our side shows the following errors
tsapd starting
tsapd listening on X121+
tsapd listening on '0001'H/
tsapd listen failed: [Invalid parameter] unsupported network address (0)
tsapd listening on '0080'H/
tsapd listen failed: [Invalid parameter] unsupported network address (0)

tsapd listening on '0200'H/
tsapd listen failed: [Invalid parameter] unsupported network address (0)
tsapd listening on "MRX"/
tsapd listen failed: [Invalid parameter] unsupported network address (0)

The tsapd reads the file /etc/sunlink/OSI/isoservices to provide services.

I think some of the files in /etc/sunlink/osi/* must be different
between the SUN3 and SUN4 version. The documentation doesn't
give me any help.

I hope someone in netland gives me a clue,
I also like to know which site is running the 
sunlink OSI/MHS/X25 version 7.0 on a SUN4 system.

Please any hints etc via E-mail,
Thanks in advance.
