 I just received the 3-CD set yesterday. The data is from "Winter 1991".
 Considering that a current subscription to PhoneDiscUSA is ~$2000,
 the price isn't that bad for "stale" data.

 So far my two biggest beefs are 

   1) You can only print or save to disk a maximum of 25 records per
      "query."

   2) Within the residential listings, there does not appear to be any
      way to do a search by specific phone number (the manual specifically
      states how to do this for business listings.). You can narrow the
      search by area code, but not by a specific phone number.

I would have thought the driver will build two separate arrays, since it
knows that there are two cards. Are you saying more than 7 Toshiba's are
being connected to one bus? Or if you have 7 drives on one adapter and add
another one to the other card, the driver is not able to handle it?

Perhaps Mr Seitz can elucidate, because Meridian connects to multiples of
7 drives using Adaptec (I think).  Or Mr Roy Neese?

All you have to do is email me (andrewc@spider.co.uk) the name of the character
and the title of the episode that each quote is taken from.

The quotes are entirely out of context and are quoted from memory (so their 
probably wrong)

1) "Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast"

2) "15 minutes and that includes the time it took to eat the pizza"

3) "Don't give me all that Star Trek crap"

4) "On your knees voters"

5) "Is'nt that a urine stain on the front of your trousers ?"

6) "Are we gonna blow this room up ?"

7) "You keep your underpants on coat hangers"

8) "Done ask me, I'm nobody"

9) "You thought you had it bad before, now you've got it in stereo baby !"

10) "I'm sorry, I just don't like you"

11) "Well this is Better then Life sir"

12) "Strike a light, its Gordon"

13) "So, what is it ?"

14) "I'm going to whip you to within an inch of your life, and then I'm going to
     have you"

15) "Which one was playing Lister then ?"

16) "Oh Rimmer, you are a Smeg Head !"

17) "Is that female as in Soft and Squidgy ?"

18) "The Hologram known as Rimmer....Guilty"

19) "So what have you got ?"

20) "But how do I do that Holl ?"


Rules
-----
1) Send me (andrewc@spider.co.uk) your entries by email
2) My decision is final cos I like playing God.
3) Results will be posted  when the entries dry up.
4) One entry per person.

OK, OK, OK...

People, let me explain something, deja-vu is a testing and development
machine which is why I am able to keep my archive material on it and provide
access to anyone via anonymous ftp.  It is not guaranteed to be up 24 hours a
day for our work related material, let alone any of the "fun" stuff.

I know that it's very annoying to try to get to something that's advertised
as being available and not being able to do it.  But, if it doesn't work it
is most likely an intermitent problem.  Try again a few hours later, if that
fails try the next day, then if that fails let me know.

One last thing (And I am unanimous in that!), my email address is plastered all
over any post relating to deja-vu (it's jrh@uiuc.edu), if you have any
problems email me directly so that we don't bother the other readers of this
newsgroup twice a week with wasted bandwidth.

Sorry, forgot to include this in my last post.

The most likely cause of problems when trying to ftp into deja-vu and
getting rejected is that your domain name probably isn't registered with the
important domain name people (ask your system admin for more info - that's
all I know).

This is what is happening for all you folks @i88.isc.com, a couple of

It's the usual bollcocks. Rowan Atkinson, Richard Curtis and Ben Elton have
all 'moved on' and want to do different things.

I have it on video. It is a video single, with the "I want to be to elected"
and a Mr Bean's red nose day, where Mr Bean's car is broken into and he goes
to the police station to report it. The problem is he has a sponsored silence
so he has to mime the contents stolen to the policewomen.

I always thought that "Pleasure at Her Majesty's" was the movie
version ofr "A Poke in the Eye with a Sharp Stick".

If either of these is available on video, or if anyone has a video copy,
please could you let me know?

Thanks,  David McAnally

I think you left one out.  Last year on I saw something called The Secret
Policeman's Biggest Ball on TV.  I'm sure it was an Amnesty International
benefit.  I can't remember all the performers, but I know John Cleese and
Michael Palin were in it.
