   So long, gang.  Time for me to get packing.  I'll be around DeKalb
   until the 13th of August, or thereabouts, so I can be reached by
   private mail (TA0WXS1@NIU.BITNET) until then.  Then it's off to
   Ireland (STEC8033@IRUCCVAX.BITNET).  I'll resub when I get there,
   probably around early September.

	I've been riding since I was six, and I've always wanted to
go to the Olympics.  Unfortunately, that level of competition requires
personal wealth far beyond my middle-class means.  Of course, it isn't
too late.  That's the one event where sex and age are not discriminating
factors for the people or the horses.  Maybe I'll come into millions and

Thanks, Evelyn

A few more details.  Some people (at Tampa) knew the plane had crashed, but
many did not.  The airpline (PanAm?) had made an announcement that all people
waiting for that particular flight to go to a certain ...many did not know
why.  The news anchor had caught up with a man, obviously very worried about
the announcement, to get the man's reation.  When it was obvious to the
anchor the man did not know the problem, he told him about the crash (details
were very sketchy at that time) and I thought the man was going to have a
heart attack on camera!  ...and yet the jerk persisted, almost to the point
of physically restraining the man from hurrying to the designated room.  I
believe the anchor, or the station, made a half-baked apology later, but was
filled with so many disclaimers as to be nearly worthless.  Years later, that
same anchor tried to convice people that the new Sunshine Bridge (a truly
magnificent structure, one of only several like it in the world, and I think
the only one is the US) had faulty piers and would collapse in a few years.
Not only a jerk, but a rabble-rousing jerk.  The bridge got a clean bill
of health from other inspectors.

Try the white bags, enhanced by blue and white Handy-Wipes, and to add just
a touch of contrast try a corsage of orange and yellow Tuffy.  Do be
careful when choosing the bags, however. The Hefty Cinch bags make lovely
balloon skirts, but the generic whites are more befitting a shift. Now, for
myself, the dark green falls into my color palette.

I like it because I like using upper case (for first letter) for directory

	Doris you are so right. As the mother of two beautiful adopted
children, (15 years ago today we got the call to come pick up our son),
and a high school teacher my students know my views on teenaged
pregnancy. This year my yearbook editor was pregnant and decided to give the
child up for adoption but then changed her mind and decided to keep the
baby. As her due date approached she realized that she loved the child too
much to try to raise it alone. She picked a couple in Dallas to be the
parents of a beautiful baby girl. I wish more teenagers would see that
adoption is the *best* option.

	You know, it is the same single-minded hatred of Apple that
makes Richard Stallman a Man To Be Avoided at parties.  He has this
nasty habit (worse than smoking really) of giving you these little
anti-apple buttons then asking you for $1 to support FSF.

	And if people were *really* upset about these practices, they
wouldn't use anything put out by Microsoft, either.  Of course, it
is nearly impossible to be a large computer corporation these days
and *not* employ an arsenal of corporate lawyers, so maybe folks
should just avoid computers all together.

The basic message, phrased in different ways (but almost always
containing the term "feminazis") appears periodically on various
groups. It's simply a recylced flame. Those on the relevant usenet and
bitgroups (gender-l) have probably seen it before. Flooding a mailbox
wouldn't do much and a simple batch file could easily reverse the
flow. Best to just ignore it. Ya can't reason people out of beliefs
they haven't been reasoned into (as we've seen in a recent dispute

Not necessarily...my Social Security card was stolen several years

Why do people always assume that lack of manual = bootlegged copies?
Our department has 24 perfectly legal copies of WP -- paid for with money
from the dean's office when I had to humiliate myself by tearfully begging
the associate dean for the money to get our lab going a couple of years
ago.  We did not pay the extra $36 for a copy of the manual, much less $36
x 24.  That did not make our copies illegal.  They are legal site-license
copies.  The manual is optional -- for more money.

What you say is, "Bob, in this day and age, it is considered *in*-

of recommendation, although it is not considered inappropriate
to refer to her <commanding presence> and her <ability to inspire
