Is there any way to get access to the InterNET from Erie, PA without having
to go through PSU-Behrend?  Preferrably free, but a small fee is more than
understandable.  I cannot get an account through PSU without taking classes,
so lose my account over the summer.  I would like at least Usenet News and
internet mail, and would prefer telnet and ftp, plus X/Y/Z/Kermit modem
downloads.  I have access to other accounts via internet, but all are long
distance.  If I can even get access to a telnet server in the area that
allows connections elsewhere, it would be appreciated.

Thanks for your time, (and net.bandwidth since this probably won't do any
good!)

A quick summary of the three main players in the UK:

ibmpcug: best for people who just want to dial in and read/send news/mail
- cosseted by a BB interface, though full unix shell access *is* available
pretty cheaply.

demon: best value service in the country for people wanting full internet
access.  They do a good job of telephone support but to be honest you have
to know what you're doing to set up a ppp or slip internet link.  Any 
programmer should go for it with no qualms.

gbnet (nee uknet): expensive, but good support - I'd recommend them for
*business* users only, who need a guaranteed service and can afford to
pay the premium.  Personal sites looking for a uucp news feed are probably
better off with ibmpcug.

i know what you mean. you do feel like you're part of neither world, and that
no one you meet will have the same interests as you 'cause you're what 
academic recommendations like to call 'well rounded'. but if you want to
do english, do it. i'm doing both. i think it's almost the best way to do
 a physics major...because you get so sick and tired of the fluorescent lights
in the lab giving you headaches, and the best way to get rid of them is to 
take a good book and sit in the soft lit reading room and escape from your
lab writeups.

Like so many others out there, I'm a physics major (how many of us ARE
there on the net, and on alt.angst in particular?  There should be a
census...)

Also like so many others out there, I'm beginning to wonder about my future
in my field.  I mean, xx years of grad school to get a PhD, then maybe a 
professorship but more likely xx more years of postdoc work trying to find
a real niche, make a real contribution, with no guarantee that I'll ever
discover anything more significant than my own incompetence, doesn't thrill
me at all.

And I was almost an English major too.  I mean, I could have been happily
over in the liberal arts, knowing full damn well that my life had no meaning
but accepting it and living on day to day nevertheless, secure in the
knowledge that I could do that because I understood existentialism.  I can't
claim that as a physics major, not without provoking tremendous amounts of
guilt.  Actually, I believe I'm violating several uncertainty laws by even
having read Sartre and Camus while a physics major, judging from my fellow
majors....

Oh, to be a happy liberal-arts undergrad.  Instead I'm doing all the work

deliberately ignorant and sheeplike and boring. and wondering if you'd
be happier as a sheep. i could go on forever.

if i ever figure out who i am and what i want from life, and what the

this isn't meant as a flame, btw. just a different perspective. i

Typically to relieve a bad mood, although lately (since I haven't found any
really good relief music) it's been to wallow.

I recommend, for relief, John Coltrane's _A Love Supreme_, which runs the gamut
from belief to angst to resolution in thirty-five minutes; Peter Gabriel's
"Blood of Eden" and "Love to be Loved" on _Us_; Jane Siberry's "Calling All
Angels" on _Until the End of the World_ (sndtrk); Tori Amos; the Cocteau
Twins _Blue Bell Knoll_, with its attendant single "Carolyn's Fingers"; and
The Blue Nile's album _Hats_.

For sheer wallowing, there's anything by Joy Division (esp. "Atmosphere"),
Morrissey's "Late Night Maudlin Street" (or anything else, for that matter),
the Cure's _Disintegration_, Nine Inch Nails _Pretty Hate Machine_, the
Replacements _All Shook Down_, Lou Reed's "Harry's Circumcision" from _Magic
and Loss_; and the Police's "Does Everyone Stare" on _Reggatta de Blanc_. 

I think the new REM album, _Automatic For The People_, may fall into the
"relief" category, but I haven't listened to it enough to decide.

Just my $.02 :)

Summary: poor thing
Keywords: Don't you just feel so SORRY for her?


Princess HotShit started her very first job this week,
at the tender young age of 28-or-so.

Unfortunately for Princess HotShit, she has been forced by
tough economic times to work for a particularly HORRIBLE
company.

For example, this company has a dress code, and they won't make
an exception for her, even though she wants to wear jeans and
tennis shoes REALLY BAD.

Also, they set the system clock on the computer 6 hours fast
for their own purposes, and won't let Princess HotShit set it
back.  Now why can't the 800 or so other people tied into the
computer from the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the
U.K. adjust to having the clock set the way Princess HotShit
wants it?

Princess HotShit hates the whole computer system anyway, especially
her ANCIENT (2 year old) terminal, but the company simply
WILL NOT buy her a PC with a mouse and Windows like she wants.
Nor will they switch to UNIX which she is used to.

She doesn't have a window in her cubicle, (funny, neither does
anyone else) they won't let her hang paintings on the ugly walls,
and on her first day they bought her a free lunch at a restaurant
she DIDN'T LIKE.

The job would be a TOTAL loss, except our Princess has found
herself a friend and confidant in the sweet, beautiful, and
understanding Mary Ellen, who Princess HotShit can follow 
around all day, confiding her angst about her horrible job.
(But no matter how hard Princess nags, the sweet and under-
standing Mary Ellen will NOT make the boss give her a higher
salary.)

Boy, is our Princess in for a surprise when the sweet Mary
Ellen reveals herself as the dreaded Evil PMS Bitch!
