as a student here at Gallaudet, I wish to clarify a few things...

first..Carl was seeing his english teacher, who is deaf and very fluent in
ASL..dunno where you heard his teacher was hearing..

secondly, he wasnt allowed on campus at all, he was in PNG (persona non grata)
at the university, and shouldnt have touched the campus at all..

third, he was on his way to the Ely Center student center, not the Cafe..the
campus police asked him many times to leave, but he ignored them, so when he
entered the building, they had no choice but to arrest him,,a struggle insued,
and unfortnaly, he was killed, but he also put two officers into the hosptal,
something overlooked, and when the backup for the officers arrived, and saw
their fellow officers hurt, they had no choice but to use force...that is true
for all police forces anywhere...had he not struggled, the he would very well
be alive today...

login in as "anonymous" using your e-mail address as your password.
"cd" to /pub/hearing and you should be able to do a "get" of any
of these files (Be sure that you are in binary mode in ftp!).

These are all also available on the Handicap News BBS (1-203-337-1607)

Subject:      show on carl dupree's death

I just saw on the TV that a program called "Inside Edition" will show an
episode on Carl Dupree's death at Galluadut two years ago.  The show is
tonight, Dec. 23.  Check your local times.

A little background:  Carl Duree is a Deaf activist on the campus of Gallud{et
and has been encouraging, among other things, better signing skills among
the hearing Campus Security.  In an arguement with an english teacher with
minimal signing skills, she felt threaten by Dupree.  The Security was called
and with less then two classes of signing skills (the minimum required to get
the job), tried to convey to Dupree to leave the Campus.  He left the
classroom to go meet his wife and children so they could leave.  The Security
could not understand him at all.  When Dupree went into the cafe, a different
direction then the edge of campus, they tackled him, put him in a choke hold,
and Dupree fought for his life.  The Officers killed him by breaking his neck
keeping the choke hold on stronger.  Several witnesses told the officers that
Dupree was spelling, "can't breathe, can't breathe."  The Officers ignored
the witnesses testimonies, and in doing so caused the death of a Deaf man
they were hired to protect.

I wonder if the training program there has changed any in light of this
senseless death.  From my research, using chokeholds in Washginton, D.C.
is illegal.  Yet from the newspapers I have read, none of the officers were
fired, or fined, or even arrested.  Yet they will be going to trial.
Go figure.

More on Carl Dupree..

	Four officers have been tried in D.C. court recently and all
are found not guilty..  I believe that they have returned to work on
campus again...

	According to information from my friend, there is no clear cause
of death..   There were several "medical" experts testifying and each
experts tells different story..   Also, according to my friend, several
witness have different story from their view points..

	One person say one officer perform choke hold  
	One person say no one did it..
	Other person say  one officer had his knee on neck..

	According to the Law of America, you have to prove the person is
guilty without any reasonable doubt.. So the Doubt is there and in the end,
the officers were declared not guilty..

	There are some improvement to the Campus Security..  They have
hired student to work with officers..  Also, the officers have stopped
carry the guns..

	So, no one knows the truth of what really happens..  I believe
that Gallaudet will be faced with another lawsuit from Dupree's family.

For those of you who don't know what lists are available via the BITNET
LISTSERV's, send a message or mail to a 'backbone' listserv such as
LISTSERV@UCBCMSA.BITNET  with the single line command:  LIST GLOBAL
(Do NOT send it to a list name such as DEAF-L).  You will receive a list of
lists.  (Beware that this list of lists is currently about a quarter of

Comments: To: PAGE-L@ucf1vm.cc.ucf.edu

You asked for a 'good' description of a LIST3820 file.  Let me take a crack at
it:

A LIST3820 is a sequential file with Advanced Function Printing control records
as indicated by the x'5A' in column 1 of each record. This file, or data stream
(aka AFPDS for Advanced Function Printing Data Stream), instructs the AFP
printers how to format and place information on the printed page.  Included in
the AFPDS can be Page Definitions, Form Definitions, Overlays, Fonts and user
print data (e.g. text).

Hope this helps.

btw.  There is a CMS Rexx utility called AFPROBE that is available on VMSHARE
and from the DOCC Project at SHARE that will 'de-compose' an AFPDS and let you
know what each record is in what approximates English.

Subject:      IBM 3812 to work from UNIX?

The group I'm working with has a large number of 3812 printers that are
being controlled by a NOVELL LAN.  We are trying to remove the NOVELL LAN
and still want to keep the 3812s.  We are going to replace the PC on NOVELL
with SUN Sparcs and DECs.  Has anyone gotten an IBM 3812 printer to work
from either one of these guys?  Right now, I think we'd be happy with just
text, but I would be very interested in hearing about the possibility of
printing DVI files to it from UNIX too.

Does your solution require additional cards to be installed?  What about
printer drivers?  Is there any kind of upgrade path for one of these beasts
that would let it talk PS?

I need some direction on this so any input would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Does it still exist?  Where is it and how do I get to it?

I am looking for Script macros or GML tags to aid in the preparation

Your problem may be more systemic than you realize. We have had

David Kovar (jdr@morrolan.eff.org), runs the EFF judge, and has
a rule that says that all games on the judge must remain moderated.  I
hoped he would answer this one, but perhaps he is not getting DIPL-L.

He has been routinely wiping all non-moderated games from his judge, in
order to maintain this rule.  The rule is in place, as unmoderated
games, and moderated without a moderator games, inevitably mean extra
work for the judge keeper (jdr), as he must end up being the moderator.
The jdr has enough work to do.

I believe that David has suspended creation of ANY games now at EFF until
after the holidays.

  The judge informed me that the moderator for hornet resigned. It would have
taken a few days to track down the moderator, find out what happened, and
get him back or get a new moderator. It was much easier to wipe the game
and let someone who was interested in moderating a game create a new one.

  As Nick noted, I am not allowing any unmoderated games to exist on
the EFF judge since they add complexity to an already complex and
somewhat time consuming process. If the moderator wasn't sufficiently
motivated to run a game he created, the game shouldn't exist.

  It is my intention to distribute the work load for running email
Diplomacy among as many people as possible to decrease the work load
on any one individual and prevent burnout if possible.

  Hopefully this doesn't sound too harsh. I did not intend to make anyone
feel "rejected" by the judge.
