I don't know about you, but I always look forward to seeing
|
|||
|
|
what's going on in FidoNet land every Monday morning. The daily
|
|||
|
|
papers may go unread, but FidoNews is something I almost never
|
|||
|
|
pass over. Not because there is always earth-shattering news in
|
|||
|
|
it, but because if there is some real news in there, I don't
|
|||
|
|
want to miss it.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
It is because of my diligence of scanning over the Snooze (as it
|
|||
|
|
is often so affectionately called) that I am prompted to ask,
|
|||
|
|
"What the heck is going on?" Say what? I'm referring to the
|
|||
|
|
reported zonal unrest, the outcries that Zone 1 is out to rule
|
|||
|
|
the world, or some such nonsense. If there is anything that
|
|||
|
|
gets me riled up at all, it is an article, or a message (usually
|
|||
|
|
echomail) that is rampant with only half a story. Please, for
|
|||
|
|
the sake of good information with which to form an opinion, how
|
|||
|
|
about putting the FUD factor to rest. If you're going to call a
|
|||
|
|
spade a spade, then don't keep me us in the dark, print your
|
|||
|
|
'facts' to substantiate your assertions. You will be doing more
|
|||
|
|
to help everyone grow a little, then just vent your anger and
|
|||
|
|
help no-one. You will forgive me for having been conceived and
|
|||
|
|
raised in Zone 1, my parents never gave me a choice.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
I've never seen anything published in the Snooze, nor put forth
|
|||
|
|
by the *C' structure, that ever said that people in other zones
|
|||
|
|
are forbidden from participating in 1) policy decision making,
|
|||
|
|
2) voting participation, and 3) political representation.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Every time something or someone makes an attempt to establish
|
|||
|
|
standards, they are usually shot down in the name of
|
|||
|
|
'democracy.' It is not surprising to me to see new proposed
|
|||
|
|
legislation, policies (call it what you wish), finally come
|
|||
|
|
around to the point of recognizing that FidoNet is more than
|
|||
|
|
just Zone 1. As our hobby progresses, and grows in orders of
|
|||
|
|
magnitude, I really fail to understand how anyone can think that
|
|||
|
|
an attempt to set down some guidelines, revise some old ones
|
|||
|
|
(POLICY4, ECHOPOL) to name two, can be anything bad. The latest
|
|||
|
|
policies I've seen do provide for the Zones to carry on their
|
|||
|
|
business as they see fit, within certain minimal limitations.
|
|||
|
|
Remember, this includes Zone 1.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
So as for the other Zones. Please don't feel like you are an
|
|||
|
|
outsider in all of this, or that you are being excluded. Your
|
|||
|
|
ideas are just as important as everyone else's. Work the
|
|||
|
|
process through, get something done that we can all live with,
|
|||
|
|
globally. Whatever might come out of it, I can promise you that
|
|||
|
|
it isn't going to please everyone, not the first time around
|
|||
|
|
anyway. But then again, that is my whole point, this global
|
|||
|
|
community we have is evolving. Lets meld it into something, and
|
|||
|
|
continue to shape it to (dare I say) perfection. This is not
|

MED_RAYS Medical Echo
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The MED_RAYS Echo is now available on the backbone. The TAG for
|
|||
|
|
this echo is MED_RAYS, and has been developed to enable persons
|
|||
|
|
working in the Radiology Areas (i.e. X-Ray, Ultrasound, Nuclear
|
|||
|
|
Medicine and Radiation Therapy) to pass information related to
|
|||
|
|
new procedures/techniques, medicolegal ethics, etc. Radiology
|
|||
|
|
students, professionals, physicians, residents and medical
|
|||
|
|
students are encouraged to participate.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Besides offering a means for professionals to exchange ideas
|
|||
|
|
and new techniques, persons with questions specific to this
|
|||
|
|
area are also encouraged to participate. Misinformation
|
|||
|
|
regarding diagnostic radiation exposure to both X-Radiation
|
|||
|
|
and Sound Radiation (yes they are both waves, although they
|
|||
|
|
differ in characteristics) has occurred and will re-occur
|
|||
|
|
within the electronic media. The MED_RAYS echo will be an
|
|||
|
|
alternative source for persons concerned with exposures to
|
|||
|
|
various diagnostic modalities to gain additional information.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
To date, topics have included establishing an Ultrasound business,
|
|||
|
|
radiation protection, employment opportunities, cost of living for
|
|||
|
|
specific areas, Registry information etc. We look forward to your
|
|||
|
|
participation in the MED_RAYS area.

Version 4.00 of my 'eXpress Response System' program has been
|
|||
|
|
posted and released via the SDS. This new version will work
|
|||
|
|
with QuickBBS, RemoteAccess, SuperBBS, TCommNet, Opus, Maximus,
|
|||
|
|
XBBS and WildCat! (via QuickDoor).
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
In keeping with my philosophy of giving the maximum value for
|
|||
|
|
money, along with version 4.00 I have instituted a new "Family
|
|||
|
|
Registration Plan". If you have more than one XRS user in your
|
|||
|
|
family you may register for the basic $20 for the first person
|
|||
|
|
plus only $5 for each extra person!
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
XRS is Shareware - the "Try before you buy" software. There is
|
|||
|
|
absolutely no crippling or missing features, nor does XRS drop
|
|||
|
|
dead after a certain number of uses or messages written. The
|
|||
|
|
$20 fee for SysOp registration is waved if you setup RaQmSeX or
|
|||
|
|
compatible mailbag creating program like Zip_Mail, XMX or XOR.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone again
|
|||
|
|
for your help during the Hurricane Hugo disaster - your aid was
|
|||
|
|
truly appreciated, and I will always remember where my friends
|
|||
|
|
are! Thanks again, and hope to see you in Colorodo in August!

A Sentimental Moment --
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Today was the last day of my contract with one of the larger
|
|||
|
|
common carriers in the world. ( Yep, I worked for a local
|
|||
|
|
phone company. ) I did all the good contractor things this last
|
|||
|
|
day, you know, backed up the hard disk, borrowed the portable
|
|||
|
|
for the holidays, made commented directory listings, picked up
|
|||
|
|
a laser toner cartridge, held information meetings... all
|
|||
|
|
those standard last day things. You'd think a company that
|
|||
|
|
size wouldn't run out of diskettes.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
It turned out to be a 29 month stay, plenty of time to get to
|
|||
|
|
know everybody, and everybody's families and it's really hard
|
|||
|
|
to leave. But then again, it's really easy to think about what
|
|||
|
|
I'm going to do next. So far, I've thought of nothing, and
|
|||
|
|
that's a pretty fine idea right now.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
So I suppose I'll trot off to Denmark and find Honey and The Kid
|
|||
|
|
and I'll bet they still love me. I've already decided that
|
|||
|
|
Honey's kiss will be proportional to the amount of money she's
|
|||
|
|
spent. She'll never figure that one out.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
And I'm gonna get in lots of four year old games before we
|
|||
|
|
switch to five year old games.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
And I'll wish you and your friends and family the best of times
|
|||
|
|
this year's end, too. You, of all people, know that sitting
|
|||
|
|
here alone in front of the screen, and pressing this ^ key can
|
|||
|
|
be done with either hand. Or both. I think that's about as
|
|||
|
|
big a holiday message as I can muster.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
