Maybe I'm missing something here, but can't you simply ask the person who
received the letter (the chair of the grad department) to write to your
colleague and explain that comments like that aren't generally acceptable. The
letter would be from one professional to (supposedly) another, your name would
never be mentioned, and the writer would get the hint.

Just my pocket change again.

Subject:      Black Woman Aviation Pioneer Dies

 <WWII-L@UBVM.BITNET>

        CHICAGO (UPI) -- Willa Brown Chappell, the first black woman to earn a
commercial pilot's license in the United States, died at Bernard
Mitchell Hospital. She was 86.
        Chappell, who died Saturday, became interested in flying while
working toward a master's degree at Northwestern University. She studied
aviation between semesters at the former Aeronautical University and
earned a pilot's certificate in 1939 -- the first black woman to do so.
        The same year she formed the National Airmen's Association of America
-- the first black aviators groups -- and she and husband Cornelius Coffey
opened the Coffey School of Aeronautics. It was the first such school
owned and operated by blacks.
        The school in 1940, at the request of the War Department, conducted
an experimental program to train blacks as combat pilots, leading to
establishment of the 99th Pursuit Squadron at Tuskegee Institute.
        In 1942 she added another first to her list when she became the first
black woman to serve in the Army Air Corps' Civil Air Patrol.
        The flight school closed after the war and Chappell returned to
teaching, retiring from Westinghouse High School in the 1970s.
        Chappell, who was born in Glasgow, Ky., and received a bachelor's
degree from Indiana State Teachers College, moved to Chicago in 1932 to
study at Northwestern.
        She is survived by three brothers.
        Visitation is Thursday at the A.R. Leak Funeral Home and burial is to
be Friday at the Lincoln Cemetery in Worth.

Comments: To: words-l@uga.cc.uga.edu

I'm using the new ethernet connection in my office right now and was
startled when the phone rang.  In that respect, I prefer the modem. :-)
It has taken me months to get used to ringing phone at home (since the
VDM allows phone and modem to use same line at same time).  Now I've
gotta get used to it in office also.  What a bother.  Phones should all
be yanked out of walls.  Everybody should have to use e-mail instead!
One irony is that the phone call was from somebody in the Computing
Center.  How weird for him to use phone instead of e-mail -- except that
he's their main hardware person and hardware people seem to like phones
better than software people do.

Adam - the key is that Joy has  the support of her family. My son's birth
mother was 16 and the third child. Her parents did not want the
responsiblility of another child. In my daughter's case her birth mother
was 19 and out on her own and had decided to keep the baby. When Amy was two
day old she made the decision that it would be best to give her up for
adoption. For both of these two young girls family support was not there
for them.

Well, as you could all guess, the thing about spelling/typing
was an e-oops--private mail meant for Graham.

But as a BONUS, let me quickly type you in this little blurb
that appeared in the Japan Airlines Newsletter:

"While excavating a site in Shiga Prefecture in Central Japan,
archaeologists recently came across a wooden tablet identified
as an official letter of complaint from a would-be bureaucrat.
The writing was etched into the tablet's surface and dated May
of 676.  It seems that a man named Genitus, a disappointed cadidate
for a place in court, had not been given the position he'd expected;
"He promised I will be promoted, but does not live up to his word.
Please do something about it," the document reads in translation.
One Japanese expert theorizes the tablet, the oldest of its kind
ever unearthed, was thrown into the gutter, where it lay for 1300
years.  Anyway, it appears the average Japanese working person's
struggle for promotion hasn't changed much since the seventh century."

Akio--If you read this, and if you have come across any newspaper
or magazine articles about this, particularly anything reprinting
the actual text of the tablet, I would appreciate copies.

For the rest of you--makes you rethink the garbage thing, doesn't it???

I know the site for next year's Event is still up in the air, but for those
betting on Stockholm, here's a way to get in practice:

  This August, try a festive Swedish Crayfish Festival for friends
  and neighbors!

  16 lb live, purged crayfish             2 tbsp salt
      (2 lb per person)
  Large lobster, crab or oyster           flowers from dill weed
      cooking pot                              (picked fresh)


   Fill pot 3/4 full of water and add salt.  Bring to boil.  As
   water boils, add dill flowers.  Add crayfish and boil 10 minutes
   or until shells turn red.  Remove and let cool.  Serve with
   bread, butter, cheese, beer, aquavit and top off the meal with
   Gevalia Kaffe!

	No you don't.  Even when I was working for ULowell,  which is
real picky about that stuff, I never showed my SS card.  As a matter of
fact, I've never used my SS card for that purpose.  I know this because
it is put away in some mysterious spot at my folks' house where I haven't
seen it in eons.

Heh...thanks for the pearls of wisdom.  Lessee...I don't even KNOW
who reviews my stuff (well, I know two of the people, but I don't
know how many others there are).  The first is the Dir. of
Administrative Computing, and the other is in charge of Institutional
Research or something like that.  All I know is that I give my boss
drafts, he hands them out to faceless entities, and I get them back
with comments...

My boss stands with me in a lot of things...the directives are coming
from a completely outside body.  We're trying to figure just how far
their jurisdiction extends--it didn't extend to removing the Advanced
VAX Use section for which one of the members saw no use.

Backups?  You're talking to the Backup King.  3 different diskettes
(2 HD, 1 DD), and 2 hard drives.  I'd upload it too,  but at 483K
it strains my pitiful diskquota(*).  I've got WP set to make backups
every 7 minutes.  Just call me Paranoid User.

Has anyone heard how Ann Diffily is doing over in Rhode
Island? We were thinking about her. -Rod
