*sigh* Nobody reads English anymore, do they?

the Church of All Worlds is based in Ukiah, California.

It was inspired by numerous writings and thoughts, including _SiaSL_.

_Green_Egg_ is their newsletter, published 8 times a year.

There is an excellent write up on the CAW in _Drawing_Down_the_Moon_
by Margot Adler, published by Beacon Press, Boston, Massachusetts.

The CAW may be reached by writing: CAW
				   Box 1542
				   Ukiah, CA  95482-1542

I said most of this in my post a few short days ago.

Maybe this will become the FAQ?

Never Thirst.

By and large, yes ; I think the story is in Drawing Down the Moon (Adler)
which is a book on the pagan community as a whole.

table service, but a Ted that dreams about them.

At long last! A Safe, effective cure for common DiscumBoBulation !!!

Owing to a revolutionary breakthrough in genetic engineering, an international
team of Scientists, sponsored by a research grant from the Hair Club for Men 
(tm), is pleased to announce an unanticipated sequela to their latest treatment
for Short and Curly pattern baldness (tm).

The new treatment, known as The BoBule Supplement, when simply draped over
wilting members, produces not only startling longevity, but is said to result 
in a renewed interest in laboratory animals.

Sy Sperling - President, spokesman and customer - hailed the advance as a
triumph of the Hair Club philosophy, but cautioned that the Supplement has yet
to win FDA approval. 

He cited studies showing similar results from the use of an indigenous 
formulation used for years by the Yeti of Nepal, and expressed confidence that
BoBules would be "in the bag" in time for Christmas.

You mean C= has stopped making C-64s?  Or that they're going to?

I can't say as how I'd be heartbroken (or ecstatic) either way, but I
suspect that "when we have off-world colonies using sanskrit, the same
C-64s will be shipped to them, save some minor cosmetic changes" is
probably closer to the truth.

I'm ashamed of all of you! What happened to the REAL hackers who had
to put assembly code into 6502's by hand? 

Look, children, the " key is nowhere NEAR the ' key on the '64
(shift-2 versus shift-7), and both * and @ are on keys by themselves,
WAY over near the return key. Starting with shift-1, the '64
keyboards go !"#$%&'(). There is nothing over the 0 key. All of
@, * and ^ are on keys by themselves where most keyboards have [, ], and
\ (or return) keys. The computer had no curly braces, and the backslash
was replaced (as far as ASCII codes are concerned) by the British
pound symbol. The underline character (_) was replaced by a left
pointing arrow right above where the tab key should be (which,
coincidentally, was where the ctrl key was; there WAS no tab key on
the '64's.) 

Now, if we're going to go about claiming to know about the '64's, at
least have the decency to try to remember what the blasted things looked
like! (Matthew happens to have 5 '64's, 2 '64C's, 2 Plus/4's, a '128D, a 
'128, a 64SX portable executive computer, 2 Vic-20's, a Commodore-16,
and numerous others which he has sold.) ("And I really LIKE those Plus/4's!

Quick SSC, I read "thermalization" as "circumcision" and
wondered why one would want to "Chew on THAT"
