Hello Netters,



	This was sent to me this morning, I thought that you might be
	interested in this:


--------Begin mesg-------

	Heard this morning on KPFA 94.1 FM (where else?) that the
	Clinton/Gore transition team is welcoming YOUR input
	and agendas for their "100 day plan."
	You can send your wish list or priorities to:

	Clinton Gore Transition Team
	P.O. 165
	Little Rock, AR
	72203

	remember, every vote counts, even AFTER the election.


	They can also be reached by email, assuming they haven't
	disconnected that
	yet--- somebody should give it a try:

Xin ta(.ng cho nhu+~ng ba.n u+a thi'ch "Bedroom Golfing" ...


             THE RULES OF BEDRROM GOLF
	     -------------------------

1. Each player shall furnish his own equipment for play -
   normally one club and two balls.

2. Play on a course must be approved by the owner of the
   hole.

3. Unlike outdoor golf, the object is to get the club in
  the hole, and keep the balls out of the hole.

4. For most effective play, the club should have a firm
   shaft. Course owners are permitted to check shaft 
   stiffness before play begins.

5. Course owners reserve the right to restrict the length
   of the club to avoid damage to the hole.

6. The object of the game is to take as many strokes as
   necessary until the course owner is satisfied that the
   play is complete. Failure to do so may result in being
   denied permission to play the course again.

7. It is considered bad form to begin playing the hole
   immediately upon arrival at the course. The experienced
   player will normally take time to admire the entire
   course, with special attention to well formed bunkers.

8. Players are cautioned not to mention other courses
   they have played or are currently playing to the
   owner of the course being played. Upset course owners
   have known to damage a player's equipment for this
   reason.

Is Nguye^~n va(n Kho^n still alive?  Furthermore, who owns the US
copyright at this moment?  The issue would be moot (i.e. I don't care)
if the people who own the copyright just happened to be owning a copy
of the dictionary at the time (ie. they have no relationship to NVK or to
the publisher who published the original Vietnamese version) and wanted to
copyright it to make the profits.

I have some beef on this issue, because a book of my grandfather was
published in the USA recently and (I believe) was copyrighted by someone we
never knew.  We decided not to do anything because, as my mother said,
"at least, they print his book without asking him to put money up front!" ;-)

Hope you enjoy this last post taken from THE DEVIL'S DICTIONARY by Ambrose Bierce:

  Admiration, n.  Our polite recognition of another's resemblance to ourselves.

  Backbite, v.t.  To speak of a man as you find him when he can't find you.

  Education, n.  That which discloses to the wise and disguises from the
                 foolish their lack of understanding.

  Hospitality, n.  The virtue which induces us to feed and lodge certain
                   persons who are not in need of food and lodging.

  Egotist, n.  A person of low taste, more interested in himself than in me.

  Philosophy, n.  A route of many roads leading from nowhere to nothing.

  Logic, n.  The art of thinking and reasoning in strict accordance with the
             limitations and incapacities of the human misunderstanding.  
             The basic of logic is the syllogism, consisting of a major and
             a minor premise and a conclusion - thus:
             Major Premise: Sixty men can do a piece of work sixty times as
                            quickly as one man.
             Minor Premise: One man can dig a post-hole in sixty seconds; 
                            therefore --
             Conclusion: Sixty men can dig a post-hole in one second.
             This may be called the syllogism arithmetical, in which, by
             combining logic and mathematics, we obtain a double certainty
             and are twice blessed.
