TO GIVE MONEY TO CLINTON OR THE ATLANTIS PROJECT, THAT'S A TOUGH CHOICE
|
|
|
|
A two year quest is over! Thanks to arrangements that I have made
|
|
with two non profit organizations, donations for the Atlantis Project
|
|
are now tax deductible. So you now have a choice. You can give
|
|
money to Bill Clinton and he can spend it on making the government
|
|
larger and more powerful or you can give money to The Atlantis
|
|
Project and help speed our journey towards creating a free country.
|
|
Either way you are making a political statement.
|
|
|
|
Send e-mail to oceania@terminus.intermind.net if you would like more
|
|
details on how you can make tax deductible donations to The Atlantis
|
|
Project.

INTERGRAPH WEB AND OCEANIA WEB LINK TOGETHER
|
|
|
|
Intergraph, the creator of ModelView, the program that was used to
|
|
create the images and animations of Oceania online, has agreed to
|
|
link their web to ours. They plan on linking their Visualization
|
|
products page where ModelView is listed to our web and we will create
|
|
a link on our end probably on a new page where we describe how Jim
|
|
Albea was able to create these images. It never hurts to get a
|
|
little publicity from a big company.
|
|
|
|
I was impressed to recently learn that one of the Intergraph machines
|
|
that Jim used to work on the images retails at $14K or so. (This was
|
|
the dual 90 Mhz machine.) Jim is definitely using more powerful
|
|
hardware than we have at the Atlantis Project headquarters!

|
WHITE PAPERS
|
|
|
|
Fred Foldvary, an economist at Virginia Tech (Virginia Polytechnic
|
|
Institute and State University), has agreed to write a white paper on
|
|
the money system of Oceania. Many other topics are available for
|
|
people who wish to write white papers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
THE OCEANIA WEB IS DEAD, LONG LIVE THE OCEANIA WEB!
|
|
|
|
The second Oceania web has been closed down mainly because it was
|
|
felt by the owner of this web that our main web is filling the need
|
|
and so he could now step down from running a web for us. This web
|
|
owner, Sean Kane, has instead decided to help translate the Oceania
|
|
Constitution and Laws into a hypertext format for our main web site.
|
|
So at the moment we have Tramm Hudson the owner of our web, Robert
|
|
Bickford, the main person transforming the web, and Sean Kane all
|
|
working together to improve our web site.
|
|
|
|
|
|
OCEANIA CONSTITUTION TRANSLATIONS
|
|
|
|
We have had two complaints about the character set used in the
|
|
Spanish translation of our constitution. This is being looked into.
|
|
The author of this translation, Roberto Leibman, will be glad to make
|
|
any changes that are necessary.
|
|
|
|
We are looking for people to translate our constitution into other
|
|
languages. If you feel you are capable of doing this, please send
|
|
us e-mail.
|
|
|
|
|
|
PASSPORT NEWSLETTER
|
|
|
|
Before the end of the year, a free snail mail newsletter will be
|
|
launched only to owners of Oceania passports. The current expected
|
|
name is "Oceania Society News" with the slogan "For Oceania Passport
|
|
Holders Only". Suggestions for names and slogans are being solicited.
|
|
|
|
|
|
INTERMIND
|
|
|
|
I have had one problem after another with my local Intermind account
|
|
and am ready to consider an alternative to it. I have learned that
|
|
the following companies offer direct access to Nevada: Evergreen,
|
|
Great Basin, Netcom, NevadaNet, Sacramento Network, Sierra, and
|
|
@wizard.com. I would be interested in hearing anyone's experiences
|
|
with these Internet hosts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
LIBEL SUIT
|
|
|
|
Some idiot is commiting some serious libel about me (and three others)
|
|
on CompuServe. Unfortunately, I do not have the resources to start a
|
|
lawsuit, and I do not want to make an empty threat against him. If you
|
|
would be interested in pledging money for such a suit, if it occurred,
|
|
please send e-mail to Eric Klien at oceania@terminus.intermind.net.
|
|
|
|
I should point out that I've never lost a lawsuit in my life and would
|
|
definitely not lose this one.
|
|
|
|
|
|
OCEANIA MALL
|
|
|
|
I have had some people inquire about putting their products in our
|
|
electronic mall. Expect this mall to start expanding soon!
|
|
|
|
|
|
OCEANIA SECRET .SIG SOCIETY
|
|
|
|
Rob Walker, Marie Gaudard, and Neal Harvey have also joined this society
|
|
which adds the follow .sig to all their messages:
|
|
|
|
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
| Oceania: A New Country In Development -> oceania@terminus.intermind.net |
|
|
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|
|
|
|
This .sig experiment may work as Neal Harvey said:
|
|
|
|
"I think the .sig idea is a good one - I know in the past I've found some
|
|
interesting things by following up references in other people's .sigs"
