81 Alex: it looks like Leonard, L'homme, myself, and Petrov. (Plus MiG; it sounds
|
||
82 like he's finding his own way over). Petrov indicated an interest, so I invited
|
||
83 him. If it's a problem, lemme know and I shall tell him some lie or other.
|

84 L'homme has been making threats about the vile orange liquid again, so perhaps
|

85 you'd better get the decontamination gear ready.

|

88 Leonard, I don't own a 64, I own a Vic.
|
||
89
|
||
90 Laissez-aire?(I think that's it).
|
||
91 I happen to have been at the Fritz/Geraldine campaign speech. If you seriously think that the US.S. will be better of
|
||
92 with reagen re-elected you are NUTS.
|
||
93 Think these small points over.
|
||
94
|
||
95 Reagen insists that a tax increase will only happen if it is totally neccasary. COUNT ON IT IF HE IS RE-ELECTED.
|
||
96 He plans on increasing millitary spending by 9% EACH YEAR! How can he NOT raise taxes???
|
||
97 But INCREASE MILLITARY SPENDING? He is surely insane.
|
||
98
|
||
99 Don't expect any arms control talks if reagan is re-elected.
|
||
100
|
||
101 But worst of all, (seriously think about this one!) if it (ooops!) HE is re-elected he is free to do as he pleases without
|
||
102 haveing to worry about the 88 election year.
|
||
103
|
||
104 MEANING, if the prune wishes to enact the draft and send Americas youth to a war
|
||
105 in say Alsalvador HE WILL DO IT! Because it doesn't matter that he will lose popularity, HE COULDN'T GET RE-ELECTED ANYWAY!!
|
||
106
|
||
107 Re-electing reagan is like giving Hitler control of America. The man has no sense of carein except for himself.
|
||
108
|
||
109 I am not putting your choice down, and maybe Mondale isn't the best bet, but I really don't feel like getting
|
||
110 drafted!
|
||
111
|
||
112
|
||
113 But then againg if you enjoy knowing that arms talks have ecollapsed for the first time since the race started, and knowing
|
||
114 that rather than cutting back millitary spending will increase yearly by 9%, and knowing that a real BASTARD is in the white
|
||
115 house then VOTE for him, but remember, if you were old and living on welfare and you suddenly got sick, there wouldn't be a
|
||
116 thing in the world you could do because reagan would CUT your welfare, I should know I watched my Granfather rot away in some
|
||
117 god awful hospital because he couldn't afford the kind of treatment he needed. Needless to say he died.
|
||
118
|
||
119
|
||
120 I'm not blameing reagan, but if he hadNn't cut welfare and social security my grandfather MIGHT possibly still
|
||
121 be alive today.

|
||
169 Richie Rich - You are indeed free to hold your own opinions, and I will not fault you for them,
|
||
170 but have you actually considered the real problem this country faces? It is not
|
||
171 the Russians, or any other ostensibly hostile people, but the threat of economic
|
||
172 collapse from within. This collapse would be made inevitable by the resurgence
|
||
173 of the democrats. The democratic party and the socialist party share everything
|
||
174 except their name. This is not a socialist state, and welfare is not a concept
|
||
175 that should be espoused in realistic terms in a representative democracy, or
|
||
176 republic, based on the concepts of freedom of expression and free enterprise.
|
||
177 Although I feel sorry for your losing your grandfather, (Not for your grandfather
|
||
178 as I knew him not, nor his condition.) I must question your motives. Where were
|
||
179 your resources, or those of your parents ? Is it not the responsibility of each
|
||
180 individual to care for his own kin ? It is not society's burden to care for the
|
||
181 old or infirm. It is the responsibility of each individual to care for himself and
|
||
182 his family. (You biblical scholars will recognize this, as well as those students
|
||
183 of history who have studied early American history)
|
||
184
|
||
185 As for not wanting to be drafted, I look upon that comment with disgust. I am sorry
|
||
186 if this has the appearance of a personal attack, as it is not meant to be. It is
|
||
187 merely my reaction to the concept of 'I don't want to fight for my rights, just gimmme'
|
||
188 Did your father want to be drafted ? How about your grandfather ? Did he WANT to have
|
||
189 the chance to die for his country ? To die to preserve something that he believes
|
||
190 in ? Perhaps, perhaps not. The point is that many, many people have died to protect
|
||
191 your right to whine about not wanting to be drafted.
|
||
192 If you do not want to fight to preserve what you have, how about someone just coming
|
||
193 over and taking all of your computer equipment away. After all, there are people in
|
||
194 the inner cities of the country who are going to have a tough time making it in business
|
||
195 because they do not have access to computers. Since you believe in welfare, you won't
|
||
196 mind, will you ?
|
||
197
|
||
198 Reagan is not perfect, we all know that. His radio check comment was plain stupid,
|
||
199 and he has other flaws. But at least he believes in free enterprise, and does not
|
||
200 believe in welfare. That is the kind of thinking that will keep the country on the
|
||
201 road to economic recovery. Fritz Mondale will put economic progess back to
|
||
202 1976, when the seeds were sown for the bitter harvest of the last recession.
|
||
203
|
||
204 (Sorry for the length, some things get to me more than others. L - Laz.)
|
||

||

247 Richie Rich: Where did you get the idea that this is the FIRST time arms control
|

248 talks have collapsed?
|
||
249 In any case the Soviets are at least as much to blame as the US. Neither
|
||
250 side is willing to discuss certain items.
|
||
251 As for military spending, while we do need to cut down on waste, we also
|
||
252 need to get our NON-nuclear forces into some kind of shape. We could not win a
|
||
253 war against anyone even half our size currently. So we either increase spending
|
||
254 and bring the Armed Forces up to reasonable equipment & readiness levels, OR we
|
||
255 might as well disband them. (any guess as to what would happen THEN?)
|

|

259 Run, Lady, Run (words & music: Ernest Clark)
|

260 A glade along the forest path, at the end of day,
|
||
261 Offered kind relief, and so there did the party stay.
|
||
262 Escort of a princess, in center did she ride,
|
||
263 Going to some noble as his long-awaited bride.
|
||
264
|
||
265 Others knew the stewardship of that fighting band,
|
||
266 Had an ambush waiting for them in that Judas land.
|
||
267 Threw a ring around the camp, men behind each tree,
|
||
268 And only Lady Katherine was outside and could flee!
|
||
269 Chorus: So run, Lady, run, help is needed desp'rately
|
||
270 Footsteps now behind you, or is it but the wind?
|
||
271 Stagger 'til your slippers leave a trail of blood to draw the hunt,
|
||
272 Perhaps you'll reach a friendly keep, so run, Lady, run!
|
||
273 Getting water from a stream, you hear the fight begin,
|
||
274 You know the camp will hold for long, but never hope to win.
|
||
275 An outside force could lift the siege, did they only know--
|
||
276 But foemen saw you leave the camp, so now you've got to go!
|
||
277 CHORUS
|
||
278 Sprint away from battle sounds, try to follow stars,
|
||
279 Never mind your aching lungs or your bramble scars.
|
||
280 You think you've lost your chasers, you rest and hear no sounds,
|
||
281 But stagger on in terror at the baying of the hounds.
|
||
282 CHORUS
|
||
283 Lurch from clearing forest, the hunt is drawing nigh,
|
||
284 But then you see a stony keep athwart the sunrise sky.
|
||
285 Falling at the entryway as legs beneath you fail,
|
||
286 But help is now about you as you whisper out your tale.
|
||
287 (chorus: instrumental only)
|
||
288 The seige was broken that same day, a vict'ry it would seem,
|
||
289 But Katherine now walks about within a waking dream.
|
||
290 She sees the forest, hears the hunt, her face bespeaks her strife;
|
||
291 I fear she will be fleeing for the rest of her life.
|
||
292 So run, Lady, run, help is needed desp'rately
|
||
293 Footsteps now behind you, or is it but the wind?
|
||
294 Stagger 'til your slippers leave a trail of blood to draw the hunt,
|
||
295 Someday you'll reach a friendly keep, so run, Lady, run!

326
|
||
327 Laissez-faire,
|
||
328 Actually, Mr. Reagan has done very little that is different from what the Democrats did when they held the presidency.
|
||
329 He has dramatically increased spending, increased the money supply beyond all need, and his new form of welfare is directed
|
||
330 toward industries that have proven themselves incapable of competing in the marketplace, rather than toward the poor. The
|
||
331 Democrats give to the poor who are incapable of supporting themselves, the Republicans give to industries that are incapable
|
||
332 of supporting themselves. A new form of welfare to be sure, but welfare all the same.
|
||
333 As to the tax give-away, even Mr. Reagan's own economists admit that it did little to help spur the current "recovery".
|
||
334 The major industries of this nation took their money and, instead of spending it on modernization of equipment or new jobs,
|
||
335 went on a spree of corporate buy-outs, the like of which has never before been seen in this nation. Housing is still on
|
||
336 the rocks, the steel companies are as good as dead, wood products ARE dead, and the only industry that is doing well is the

337 production of various weapon systems. And as Adam Smith would tell you (if he was alive, that is), the production of weapons
|
||
338 only overheats the economy by providing a temporary and artificial stimulus. It provides some jobs, but produces no goods
|
||
339 for the consumer income created by those jobs to purchase. More money chasing after the same or fewer number of goods will
|
||
340 only lead to another round of inflation. So all Mr. Reagan is doing is the same as Lyndon Johnson did with his escalation
|
||
341 of the Viet Nam war: providing a nice deep economic hole for those that follow him to try to climb out of.
|
||
342 Please don't think of this as an essay of support for Fritz, as it isn't. It is just simple recognition that the Rag-Nut
|
||
343 is no better. Yes, once again we are faced with a choice of those that offer nothing more than smoke and mirrors.

418 MY COSMIC ADVENTURES ON FERN UNIT
|
||
419 by Susan Michelle
|
||
420
|
||
421 Let me first inform you that fern Unit is a dark planet and I can't
|
||
422 remember how long I have been living here. My earliest memory dates
|
||
423 back to the year 0029 when I was just a young tad in dirty dipers. I
|
||
424 can recall rolling around on my belly in the cool sand searching for
|
||
425 various tidbits of Fern to endulge upon. I had a small incubator that
|
||
426 kept me warm inside until I was old enough to build a shelter. I made
|
||
427 my shelter out of Fern wood and various units that grew along the bank
|
||
428 of the River of Dreams. Sometimes late at night I would watch the river.
|
||
429 She was like soft feathers floating in the wind. Her dreams were always
|
||
430 changing and you could never be certain on what she would dream next. One
|
||
431 night I watched her dream of a uncertain stranger with dark hair. I could
|
||
432 feel the energy of this stranger, it was like an aura of bright colors. I
|
||
433 let this sensation surround me until it entered my body and left me feeling
|
||
434 experienced inside. I would have to meet this dark haired stranger. One
|
||
435 evening I noticed that my body had devoloped into that of a well devoloped
|
||
436 young man. It was amazing. I stood outside my shelter for two days admiring
|
||
437 my new foundation and even the rocks along the bank were aghast. I didn't
|
||
438 bother asking my shelter what it thought because my shelter was always silent,
|
||
439 as it was made of Fern wood and various units. The river started to dream so I decided on calling it a night. Tommorow would
|
||
440 be a day which was a major event here on Fern Unit.
|
||
441 (TO BE CONT...........)

||

|
||
443
|
||
444 Richie Rich: It's a bit late to enlist if we're being invaded. As I've said before
|
||
445 it takes MONTHS to learn to use anything other than your personal weapons.
|
||
446 And since we can't mantain a major offensive for more than a month....
|
||
447 Prometheus: What code does "control-space" send? It is NOT standard! In fact
|
||
448 I cannot think of a machine that implements it! I suspect that it sends ^@ (00h)
|
||
449 but I have no way of knowing.
|
||
450 L'homme: here is the Modem protocol
|
||
451 Receiver Sender
|
||
452 <NAK> to start ->
|
||
453 (repeat every 10 sec
|
||
454 until <SOH> received)
|
||
455 (Wait for initial <NAK>)
|
||
456 <- <SOH>
|
||
457 <- <block #> (one byte)
|
||
458 <- <block # complemented>
|
||
459 <- <128 data bytes>
|
||
460 <- <cksum> total of data Modulo 256
|
||
461 <ACK> or <NAK> ->
|
||
462 Repeat same sector (with same block#)
|
||
463 if <NAK> rcvd or no response (timeout)
|
||
464
|
||
465 Send next block if <ACK> receieved:
|
||
466 <SOH><BLK#><BLK# complemented><DATA><CKSM>
|
||
467
|
||
468 (check for repeated block
|
||
469 by comparing with previous
|
||
470 blk #)
|
||
471 <- <EOT> after <ACK> is received for
|
||
472 last block
|
||
473
|
||
474 Either end can abort transfer by sending <CAN> while the
|
||
475 other end is not transmitting.
|
||
476 <SOH> = 01 hex
|
||
477 <EOT> = 04 hex
|
||
478 <ACK> = 06 hex
|
||
479 <NAK> = 15 hex
|
||
480 <CAN> = 18 hex

|

483 It is 05:24, and the last contingent of the Risk Brigade arrived home
|
||
484 15 minutes ago. (and with 71 more miles on the car than when we started).
|
||
485 Why, oh why do we torture ourselves so? I suppose it's either because we are
|
||
486 masochists, or else because the Risk is fun and Alex is a good host
|
||
487 (although he does extract his payment by winning the first game every night).
|
||
488 Well, time to move on to the other three boards I need to call before I can
|
||
489 go to bed (it's a fetish of mine, you know - got to check all my usual boards
|
||
490 else something dire will happen...)

|
||
493 Well, I haven't been here for quite a while and it has changed a lot.
|
||
494 When I first logged on I left a message under the name of 'Lord Grimsbe'.
|
||
495 Then I found another name and continued to use this system. I can't remember
|
||
496 which name it was because I hace had so many. I stoped calling after I was
|
||
497 blamed for a bunch of things that I didn't type in but thats all history.
|
||
498 And if Mig is still keeping track of what boarders people use when they log-on
|
||
499 then my page must be filled. During the 'juvie hunt' I was responsible for
|
||
500 a good 4 people that were juvies. And 2 that were not. I never did write
|
||
501 a story, that was all that was going on when I first saw it. People were
|
||
502 just writing stories and this board was a happy one. And now, everyone is
|
||
503 either fighting and cussing other people out or they are just ingnoring them
|
||
504 alltogether. You might want to change the name from Backwater to Warboard.
|
||
505 I too am not going to call again, everytime I do all I see is what I don't
|
||
506 want to see. Thats what is going on. Piper is one of the last survivors.
|
||
507 What happened to all the writers? Not what is on today but the writers.
|
||
508 Here is a list of the names that I used, if you see them on old listings have
|
||
509 fun.
|
||
510 Lord Grimsbe, Luke Binkelywalker, Whiteliner, The Archer, Griff,
|
||
511 Mark St.Clair, New User, Juvie, J.C and the boys, J.C and the Sunshine band,
|
||
512 Desenter, Figg, xxxxx, Atari user. I left numerous unsinged messages on this
|
||
513 board too. I used so many different boarders that it would takr a long time
|
||
514 and space to write them all down.

|
||
543 I slept uneasy that night. My mind was awake and ticking. I had placed a
|
||
544 skylight made of Fern glass in my shelter a few years ago and my bed lye
|
||
545 beneath it which made sleeping peacefull. Sometimes I would watch the stars
|
||
546 for hours until I dozed off. On a clear night I could see it raining on the cir
|
||
547 cling moon, Fern Dock. I would like to travel there someday for I have heard
|
||
548 there are many dimensions of Fern there. Fern is very important. If it wasn't
|
||
549 for Fern, I would be nothing but a skeleton of a baby. I sometimes feel I owe
|
||
550 my entire life to the many and plentiful varieties of shrubs of Fern.
|
||
551 My heart was beating fast when I wakened. I had forgotton that it would be a
|
||
552 day outside and I had not prepared myself. I had started to knit a pair of swim-
