OTHER ACTIVE NOTES THIS WEEK:

By: Imports, Exports and Arms (Jeremy Nelson, gujn@uniwa.edu.ca)
Content:

WE apologise for any time distortions in the local
area, however, due to testing of a device (Henceforward
known as 'The Thing'), the local timestream has become
dislocated.

There is no danger, however some people may undergo
slight disorientation.

Some people may apparently find themselves in multiple
locations at one time. We assure customers that
this is not dangerous, and all time lines are in fact
continuous, and will straighten themselves out in time.

We recommend leaving early for any important appointments.

Normal service will be restored tomorrow, yesterday,
in three weeks' time and in three hundred and thirty
years.

All complaints should be forwarded to:
           Imports, Exports, and Arms.

<ed: Actually, complaints should go to Listener, who will "play" them out
 of you. This has proven to be too valuable an "excuse", IMHO.>

We thank you for your consideration.

SPECIAL STATUS:

Posted 9/12
By: Bit & Byte (Mike Bavister, bj689@cleveland.freenet.edu)
Content:

  --- POSTMASTER GENERAL VACANCY WITHDRAWN ___

Due to a lack of applicants, the position of Post-Master General for
Generica has remained vacant for well over a month. The truly amazing
thing is that NO ONE HAD NOTICED. The post office has run quite
smoothly without a PMG (mostly due to seasonal lack of mail).

Ergo, the vacancy has been withdrawn. If in the future the city of
Generica has need for a PMG, I will come out of retirement to help out.

The Generican Post Office would also like to announce that we have two
new mail-handlers: Bit & Byte, the 1Meg twins. They have just completed
the exhaustive 30 minute training session, and are now working in the
receiving department. In just one day they have set a new record for
accurately sorting mail: 63%.

<ed: In my own words, I believe Mike is keeping a list of those needy of
 proxy-posting, and those willing to help the needy ones without the latter
 necessarily being in their "thread". E-mail Mike if you feel you fall into
 either category...>
