Well, you succeeded in insulting many more than you probably expected (or
who would bother to respond to tell you so), but fortunately we take these
simple-minded attacks as pure ignorance - from the minds of biggots.

Farzin khAn:

kojAye kAry AghA? they will deny all of the allegations made by you. You
say that there is no freedom in Iran, their response is that there is
absolute freedom in Iran. You say that Iranian women have no freedom, they
will say that they are being treated very nicely and islamically!!!
And if there is something that they can not deny, which happens very rarely,
they will justify it by an "Ayeh" from Koran. And if there is nothing
specifically mentioned in Koran about that issue, they will make up an "Ayeh"
for you.
Asking the above questions from people like those two is an absolute waste of
time. Everyone who has been reading this newsgroup for the last few months
can tell you in advance what their answer is going to be. So why
bother to ask questions or argue with them? Wake up man, wake up.

Dear Zafar;

Before Ghotba's note is translated into a form that can be understood by
you (I was going to try English), two serial questions must be answered:

1 - Do you know anything about Ghotba and _his_ origins in Iranian
    movie/TV industry?

2 - After you got to know Ghotba, would you still care about Ghotba's
    reply?

I would be happy to translate Ghotba's note, if I get Ghotba's copyright
permission since he is the author of the original text.  You see I am the
hell [(c) Zafar, 92] afraid of copyright infringments laws.  :-)

A file suit has been filed against a subsidiary of General Motors (Electonic Da
Data Systems) for refusing to hire fat people, gays, Iraqis and Iranians with
less than 7 years of US citizenship history!
(Iranians wouldn't want to be working for a company that can't make a car right
anyway. What do you expect from a failing company?)

They are both from a state
that begins with "I" and ends with "A"?

Both of their last names end in a vowel?

They are both potential founders of the xxxxxx
Center for Spelling Excellence?

They are both above 30?

They both act way below 30?

The second letter of their first name is "a"?
(Quayle is actually J. Danforth, but he uses Dan, and so shall we :-)

They both dodged the draft and skipped the war but flame everyone 
else for being a chicken?

They both have 6 letters in their last names?

They both have strong family values and have a heck of a way
of displaying it?

They both hate California and a certain area therein?



Gee, I don't know. Can someone help me with this? :---)

World Cup Indoor Soccer in Hong Kong started Monday. 16 teams in four groups.
Our indoor team, Iran is in Group B... Let's wish them good luck...

	Group A:                Group B:

	Hong Kong               The Netherlands
	Poland                  Iran
	Argentina               Paraguay
	Nigeria                 Italy

	Group C:                Group D:

	Brasil                  China
	Australia               Spain
	Costa Rica              CIS
	(team from Europe)      USA

#4 of group C was Yugoslavia, I don't know which European
country has replaced them...

#1 and 2 of each group go through to the next round, forming 2 groups of four...
A half-competition per group, on Nov. 23, 24 and 25, decides which two teams 
advance into the cross-finals to be played on friday the 27th. The final will
be played on saturday the 28th...

Here are some results...

Spain	-	China		6-5
Hong Kong - 	Argentina	1-2
Poland	-	Nigeria		5-4
USA 	- 	CIS		8-3

Group B 
-------
					   *
Monday Nov. 16  The Netherlands - Iran  2-1 (seems the ref wasn't that good)
		Paraguay - Italy	5-7

*  It seems that there is a thing going around with the refs against Iran
   lately!  First in Japan during the Asian Cup Games and now the World Indoor
   Games... Both incidences have involved the HOST COUNTRY teams!!


Wed. Nov. 18  The Netherlands - Paraguay	1-3
	      Iran - Italy			7-5

At this point every team has a W and a L but Iran tops the group by enjoying
a ONE GOAL lead over the other teams...

Friday Nov. 20  The Netherlands - Italy
		Paraguay - Iran


Nov. 23, 24 and 25      second round
Friday Nov. 27          cross-finals
Saturday Nov. 28        The final

Summary: A hello  

SalAmee Garm be TamAmeh Ham-vatanAneh Aziz:

My name is Hooman, and I have been following this news group for a while now.
Like many of you, I have been away from Iran for years. Reading through the
postings has made me feel prouder than ever to be an IRANIAN.  To see that 
the young generation of our country still cares so much about all aspects of our
culture (political, literal, historical, cultural, ...) is invigorating.
                                         
I would specially like to thank Ali for all his efforts and generosity with
his creation of GERDSOOZ. I have used it and think is an excellent tool for us 
to express our feelings, thoughts, and experiences in Farsi. I also like to 
support Babak Sehari in his efforts to post a classical poem every day. 
It is a well appreciated effort. (Dastat dard na-Koneh Babak jAn) 

Here is a simple idea that some of you might have thought it already. If you are
using a system with UNIX or similar operating system, you can create a script
with the following line to ease the use of GERDSOOZ. When using this script
you don't need to create an input file. Here is the script:

echo ^1 > tempfile; GERDSOOZ -i tempfile;rm tempfile

^1 is an input argument. I called my script "bego" so I would simply say

$ bego " Sah~namh "

and out it comes with:
                                                           |.    | c 
                                                       4_o |_  o |_w 

It is a little easier for short messages.                                                                               

I am also very interested in joining the "Persian Spell Checker"
project. I remember reading something about it, but it was a followup
posting and was not complete. I would appreciate an update of the 
project and what task I could help with. You could reach me at
home @ (305) 472-4218 if you need, or my e-mail address is:

foroughi@fl08-g.comm.mot.com

I also, would like to suggest that the people responsible for 
tehran.stanford.edu create a Tools directory which would contain
some of the tools that people use for various jobs (ie. compression 
decompression tools, I am looking for "uudecode" for example,
or other tools).
