Jason:

I never said ACT-UP was just sitting around.  They wer shouting and yelling
and being quite obnixous, but not violent.

Act-Up is not a gay rights organization.  It is an AIDS advocacy group
whoose primary purpose is to save lives, not to please people.  I know
of several individuals who would most likely be dead right now if not
for the effort of members of ACT-UP to speed up drug,{

(sorry-- bad editor) trials, increase confidentiality of PWA's (people
with AIDS) and draw attention to essential issues in the AIDS crisis.
The problem with ACT-UP is that sometimes some chapters draw much more
attention to THEMSELVES than to the issues they hope to present.  However,
that is the only time the media ever bothers to address us, so we do
get a lot of bad press.  Par for the course, I guess.  I'm not going
to defend any of ACT-UP's actions sicne it is a collective, not a
hierarchal body, and all members of ACT-UP act basically on their own
while working with ACT-UP.  In Rhode Island, we have had many meetings
directly with officials and people in public service compared to very
few "actions."  OUr primary purpose is to affect change.  Demonstrations
usually only come long after such discussions have taken place.

Unfortunately, AIDS is very complicated and it is rarely easy to
get a clear concise message out that says all that we want it to
in a single demonstration, so we use phrase{_s such as "SILENCE=
DEATH" and "EVERY DEATH FROM AIDS IS AN ACT OF VIOLENCE" to get
our point accross and some people think that that's all we have to
say.  I've been involved with ACT-UP for close to a year now and
I am _finally_ learning to catch up with the dialogue in the meetings
and understanding all the technical terms which other members banter
back and forth with ease.  It has taken me a lot of time and work
to figure out just where this group is headed.  It's not a simple
issue and the media always wants to congeal it down to simple
buzzwords so our messages often get lost.  This is something we
definitely need to improve.

The HOPE that we often have is that we draw attention to something and
get people talking about it, such as the Church's opposition to
condom distribution and condom use, something which really DOES
cost people lives, but we sometimes get more caught up in making
a demostration that the issue of the Church gets lost.  Definitely
something to work on.

But this was just my point.  The church changed its position on abortion
fairly recently (given its 2000 year history).  1861 isn't so very long
ago.  I see no reason why it shouldn't change its position again.

        Thanks to Marty Leisner for a suggestion that orients the page

to print PostScript on our 4050.

        Thanks also to Tom Reid for years of excellent work.
I hacked up a peice of code from Tom Swanner which uses Tom R's EGGS
to print bitmaps from various sources.   Our VM LPDaemon accepts the
-v  option from a UNIX 'lpr' command to print raw rasters.   GhostScript
can produce a Portable BitMap.   A shell script runs 'gs' then 'lpr'.

If I just toss it to REXXC, I get warning errors for trace commands

Sorry, Bill, it won't work.  The LOG subcommand in SEND mode doesn't actually
do the logging, it just names the notebook to receive the message when it is
sent.  Specifying two LOG subcommands will just cause the second one to
override the first one.

It will require a mod to the MAIL/MAILBOOK source to enable the specification
of multiple notebooks on the SEND mode LOG subcommand.

We don't compile our MAIL/MAILBOOK code, but we generate a "preparsed"
version (using a technique which uses the Rexx Interpreter itself to do the
generation) which is loaded into CMSINST.  We get a measuarable performance
improvement (6-8%) at the expense of rendering the "source" code totally
unintelligble for debugging purposes.  Our solution is to maintain a
non-preparsed and uncompressed (one statement per line) version of the execs
on a disk accessed at the mode specified in SET INSTSEG ON (in our case, P).
In normal operation, the user is running the preparsed and compressed version
from CMSINST.  If a problem occurs, the user is told to issue SET INSTSEG OFF
and run MAIL/MAILBOOK again.  The resulting traceback is much more informative
than that obtained in the normal operation of the compressed exec, because the
statement in error is precisely identified, rather than the traceback pointing
to a line containing numerous statements.

If you compress the "compiled" or "preparsed" version of the source
with "one statement per line" (add the STATEMENTS option to the
REXXCOMP call in MAILUPDT) then you will at least get a reasonable line
number in the original error message.  I have found that even w/out
SL/SOURCELINE set on the compiled code that this has allowed me to
often figure out what the error was w/out having to reproduce the
problem in an interpreted or uncompressed copy of the code.  This costs
nothing for a compiled copy of the code and only costs about a few
thousand bytes of extra disk and main storage when running an
interpreted copy.

There is a profile option "LOG.MULTIPLE" (see HELP MAIL PROFILE) also
on the "Send-mode options" menu as "Log in multiple notebooks".  If this
option is set "Yes" and you are sending mail to more than one recipient for
whom different notebooks are specified in the corresponding NAMES file
entries, the message will be logged in all the referenced notebooks.
However, there is no way to cause an outgoing mail item to be logged in
more than one notebook if there is only one recipient, or if there are no
NAMES file entries for multiple recipients.  Neither will the OPTIONS nor
the LOG subcommands accept more than one notebook name.

Subject:      COMPUSERV to INTERNET gateway

Does anybody know if the COMPUSERV to INTERNET gateway has a problem
with dashes (-) in the address? A COMPUSERV user can send mail to a user
id, no dash, but gets an error when sending to a LISTSERV list that has
a dash in its name. Is this a known problem?

Thanks

It wouldn't seem to be difficult to define a synonym in your MAILUSER
XEDIT to do this.

Something like:

'SET SYNONYM LINEND # MLOG & & LOG &1#LOG &2'

This will define a command MLOG which takes two operands, and issues
two LOG commands, one for each operand.  (Be sure none of the special
characters (like #) are *really* defined as LINEND characters.)  If you
wanted this to happen automatically on send, you could probably create
a synonym which does the logs and then sends the mail.  I haven't
tried these particular examples, but I have done this type of thing
before.  If you have trouble, let me know.
