%HISTORY OF TNS%

|
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Tolmes News Service started out as just a series of posts on P-80
|
|
Information Systems. It was originally entitled "Hugo World News" (as a satire
|
|
of Knight Lightning's "Phrack World News".) The first fifteen or so issues
|
|
of TNS are repeats of previously posted articles. NOTICE: The articles in TNS
|
|
arezines, news reports, etc. They are
|
|
being typed out. All of the articles listed will also show the date and the
|
|
magazine/newspaper/etc. in which the article first appeared. The file will
|
|
usually also display the reporter who wrote the article for the certain
|
|
magazine/newspaper/etc. Anything noted as an "NOTES ON THE ARTICLE:" is my
|
|
own opinion of the article. NOTA will also do some explaining of the article
|
|
for persons who did not understand. One other thing that NOTA will do is to
|
|
correct any errors in the article. I hope that NOTA will clarify points that
|
|
were expressed in the article.
|
|
|
|
At the beginning of every issue (except for a few with only 1 thing) there will
|
|
be a short index of what articles are being put in the issue. The index will
|
|
show the original title of the article as it appeared in the newspaper/etc.
|
|
The index will be followed by a few short notes by yours truly on the state
|
|
of affairs in the BBS world and any current events.
|
|
|
|
Some issues will only have one article within them... while other issues might
|
|
have five or six different articles. Remember, TNS just types out articles
|
|
from the press that are of interest to the phreak/hacker.
|
|
|
|
The first few issues will go back a while (not as far as Sandza and all of
|
|
that 414 crap). The articles are placed in no specific order.. they're just put
|
|
together without any reason......
|
|
|
|
After the first fifteen or so issues are put out, the next issues will be
|
|
out every month or so. This newsletter will not (not yet anyway) print news of
|
|
busted phreaks that did not come out of the media. This is to prevent certain
|
|
persons from spreading lies and rumors. Certain posts from BBS's will be used and other information from BBS's will
|
|
be used. Articles (that have not been written by myself) will not have any
|
|
comments inserted. Some articles will be edited and other articles will have
|
|
only certain parts used. Information that would be of no interest to the
|
|
reader will be deleted. Useless, false, or boring information will be explained
|
|
afterward in NOTA (Notes On The Article).
|
|
|
|
This magazine (if you could call it that) might have some interviews,
|
|
transcripts of certain television broadcasts, and radio broadcasts in the
|
|
form of articles.
|
|
|
|
Information from outside sources may not always be verified. In all cases
|
|
where it can be verified, any information that is false, misleading,
|
|
or useless will be edited out/deleted. The information held within cannot be
|
|
verified in many instances, but articles will be edited for material
|
|
that may be used as propaganda. Anything found (by myself) to be
|
|
misleading/bad/false/partially useless will have an explanation in NOTA.
|
|
|
|
All information is meant for information purposes only. This series
|
|
of issues is a NEWS magazine and is not meant to be used for any type of
|
|
illegal exploit or stupid shenanigans.
|
|
Remember, this is NEWS on the phreak/hack world. I claim absolutely
|
|
no responsibility for anything within this on-line magazine.
