Subject: mercury
From: rden@rden.gen.nz
Date: 5 Sep 92 02:25:56 GMT
Organization: Just some guy

I home this message gets out, there apparently have been some hardware
problems at Auckland University stopping news and email getting in and out
of any other Auckland sites.

Anyway, to the point.  There have been some claims that mercury.gen.nz has
been closed down, this is infact incorrect.  What has happened is that
mercury has moved to become part of the kcbbs network.  

This had been planed for some time to reduce the connect time to AkUni, with
Paul Kendall [mercury sysadmin] changing jobs the oppertunity was taken to
implement this plan (mercury was located on the site of Paul's previous
employer.)

All sites that were connected to mercury at the old site were informed in
time of this happening, and they all continue to receive the same services
as before.  As well as the modem and phone line that mercury has, the connecting
sites now also have access to 6 other lines (4 V32 and 2 PEP - which some
of the sites are taking full advantage of.)  The only exception to this is the
site crfm.gen.nz which sadly chose not to move

While I am here there were apparently also some rumors of kcbbs closing down,
this is infact not true, in fact kcbbs has expanded to become 3 machines
(not counting mercury) and kcbbs is now providing even more services then
previously, and in no way is reducing or discontinuing any services.

That is fine to accuse the SIS, but to post it anonymously shows that we
shouldn't really take notice of your message, as you yourself won't put

Greetings,

Date     :  September 06th 1992
Subject  :  Alt.znet and related groups

For      :  New Zealand, WORLD


As you may recall we requested a RFD for a news group in the atari
section to carry all the Z*NET FNET feeds.  Well I guess it was the
old story of no-one wanting it so it is not going ahead.

What we have done is placed all the news in a ALT group instead. 
We have over this weekend placed over 200 messages in the news
group alt.znet.fnet relating from things like Bob Brodie (from
Atari Inc USA) talking about the Falcon to people talking about 
the award Z*NET PC won this year. 

We have created a series of news groups under the ALT.ZNET banner
being ..
 
             alt.znet.aeo  <- this is an ascii magazine called
                               Atari Explorer On-line (ex ZNET)
                               and carries not only the magazine
                               but also the discussion on AEO.
             alt.znet.pc   <-  this is also an ascii magazine 
                               dealing with the PC/UNIX/OS2/
                               Windows world of computing. This
                               news group also carries the magazine
                               and other topics of interest relating
                               to it.
             alt.znet.fnet <-  this is the Z*NET FNET gateway. Here  
                               you have a chance to talk back to the
                               FNET conferences. Currently we are
                               running at about 100 messages aday
                               including input from Fido-net as well.

We have not created the alt.znet.zmag at this point as the 8 bitters
have indicated they do not want this magazine in the net at this point
in time. However it is available as well should demand require it.

Well I hope you enjoy all the new news from Atari to OS2 and every machine
on the way.  Any comments can be directed to Ron at his CIS address or
via the gateway here to znet@status.gen.nz 

Remember to ask your system administrator to carry the alt.znet groups
in your _country_.

Best regards

The Z*NET Global News Gateway Crew.

That was precisely the point I made in email to Jon, except I was nowhere
near as polite about it.

I had already politely informed him of the correct procedures to follow for
the creation of a new newsgroup.  That advice was obviously ignored, and
all he's done is scuttle the group's chances of being successfully newgrouped.
Not every admin bothers looking in their junk newsgroup to see what's there,
and locally addgroups orphans...

I have received some e-mail from a guy who works for the New York Aquarium.
He is interested in contacting people in NZ to talk about Marine Aquaria.

If you are interested in this area or have a marine tank (either native or

Bolger and his ilk are fundamentally dishonest. The PM's comments should be a
spur to anyone to get rid of a system that lets a lying dead-head like him end
up running the country.
 
This churlish attitude is typical of the man and his party. "We will be nice
as long as you don't threaten our power". That's the message. The second
voters look a bit "uppity", the threats come out of the closet.
 
Vote MMP and rid NZ of weasels like Bolger. Sure, they will always be there,
but under MMP they won't have a free hand to do what they like.
 
Mental midget Bolger is telling people to vote against MMP because it may mean
more MPs (20), but wants us to support an Upper House that may have 30!
Bolger's 30 won't even have any power for the extra money and trouble.
 
It makes me sick. I wish I had 50 votes to cast on the 19th.

Yes, it's Um, intriguing, isn't it?  I didn't hear the earlier version,
but I've been picking up bits about it on the National Programme through
the day.

I like the comment that somebody made:  "If Winston's involved in this,
we may never get to the bottom of it".

  Hmm... makes interesting reading. No, it doesn't annoy me, they are easily
skipped. Who knows, maybe some information I need might be mailed, so probably
quite useful. Might be an idea to create a new group (nz.general.wcc) or something
to stop people whinging tho.

Hate to say it, but I only ever saw the discussion in the Atari and New
Zealand forums, which would kind of explain the lack of replies on it.

Somebody pointed out at one point in the discussions in the Atari group
that the postings and RFDs MUST appear in the news.groups area in order
for them to be valid, so it's really your own fault that there was 'no
interest'. Personally, I was waiting for a RFD before I said yes.

I suggest you post a RFD in the news.groups area, as you havn't discussed
this in alt.config either, and in all liklihood one of the 'net facist
bullyboys' will say 'This is a bogus group' and rmgroup it.

If you abide by the net rules, I suspect you will find that people will be
more interested.
You have my support for creating a znet distribution, but as things stand
it is possible that many systems may not carry the group.

In article <199208311430.AA04184@kaukau.comp.vuw.ac.nz>,
Aaron.Roydhouse@comp.vuw.ac.nz (Aaron Roydhouse) transcribes the high-speed
scrolling text at the beginning of the first episode in the second series
of Red Dwarf. And also includes the words to the theme song at the end.

And just for fun, here's a sampling of some of the backwards dialogue from the
same episode.

The pub manager comes into the dressing room after the show. Shorter spiel:
"Your act's crap. Anyway, anybody coulda done it. I hate the lot of you.
Bollocks to you!"

Longer spiel: "You are a stupid, square 'eaded, bald git. Aren't you, eh?
I'm pointin' at you, I'm pointin' at you. But I'm not actually addressing you.
I'm addressin' the one prat in the country who's bothered to get 'old of this
recordin', turn it round, and actually work out the rubbish that I'm sayin'.
What a poor, sad life 'e's got!"

He said it.
