7 BWMS was created as an electronic bill board. BWMS is a privately owned
|

8 and operated system which is currently open for use by the general public.
|
||
9 no restrictions are placed on the use of the system. As the system is
|

10 privately owned, I retain the right to remove any and all messages which
|
||
11 I may find offensive. Because of the limited size of the system, it will be
|

12 periodically purged of messages. (only 629 lines of data can be saved)
|
||
13 to leave a message, type 'ENTER' and use ctrl/C or break to get out of the
|
||
14 ENTER mode. The message is automatically stored. If after entering the
|
||
15 message you find you made a mistake, use the replace command to replace

25 Someone lives bleeding in a gutter somewhere.

26 So it would seem we still got a long, long way to go. I've seen all I want

27 to see today. I can't take it anymore...

40 If that rings any bells then you most likely can guess who this is. If it

41 means nothing to you then understand that I know of the person in which you

42 speak with a house number of "37" on "127". And that I am a continuation of this on-going ledgen.

93 Color Computer OS-9 BBS, 300 bps, from 630 in the evenings, to 530 in the

94 afternoons. Maybe you'll like it better than BackWater. Maybe you'll use it

95 instead. Huh?
|

96
|
||
97 Do you ever read the Personal Messages in the classifieds? I think the basis
|
||
98 for some really strange stories are there. One a few days ago caught my eye:
|
||
99 EDWIN D. & SARA A. are black
|
||
100 hearted & God is watching your
|
||
101 evil doings. God have mercy on
|
||
102 your soul. J.R.
|
||
103
|
||
104 I wonder what Eddy & Sara did to JR? We'll never know. Make up your own story.

105 _innocent bysitter_
|
||
106 Some punitive rehabilitation therapy this is. Imagine being commited to this
|
||
107 planet of insane lunatics for 67 talars.Argeth! All I did was "borrow" some
|
||
108 thionite crystals from the Roitation
|
||
109 reserch Institute. I was not using them
|
||
110 for a "unlicenced chronodistortion chamber", if I had been, no one would have
|
||
111 noticed anyway, because cosmic inertia
|
||
112 would have damped out any disturbances that I might have caused. Anyway, here I
|
||
113 am, setenced to spend a significant fraction of my life on this primitive excuse
|
||
114 for a planet, cut off from home family
|
||
115 and group mates.
|
||
116 In the name of Wemtroc, they still
|
||
117 use the internal combustion engine here.
|
||
118 When I go outside I am choked by the
|
||
119 fumes, which is ironic because I used
|
||
120 to breathe Carbon Monoxide, but was
|
||
121 force changed by a Body regeneration
|
||
122 unit, and given the outward aspect and
|
||
123 weaknesses of these ugly creatures.
|
||
124 Dry pink skin, intead of my normal lovely coat of blue-green scales. Ugly little
|
||
125 tentacle like hands and fingers instead
|
||
126 of efficient feelers. Yuccchhh!!!
|
||
127 I feel like a monster, I even have
|
||
128 to eat the food here! Ugh! Almost all
|
||
129 the food here is natural, grown in the
|
||
130 ground, or killed. No wonderful
|
||
131 slabs
|
||
132 of protein complex grown in tanks.
|
||
133 No vitaman enriched nutri-liquid, only
|
||
134 h2o to drink, although you can get it
|
||
135 in some half way decent flavors.
|
||
136 I especially like something called
|
||
137 blue creme soda. The coloring agents
|
||
138 taste wonderful! That's about the only
|
||
139 decent thing about this planet though,
|
||
140 I really miss Utrean, especially at thistime of year, when the females are in
|
||
141 season at home and are ready to recieve
|
||
142 my pollen. I am getting excited just
|
||
143 thinking about it. I tried the local
|
||
144 version of sex, taking instruction
|
||
145 from a videocassete called "Debbie does Dallas. The female I hired for the
|
||
146 purpose was apparently impressed with
|
||
147 my performance. It would seem that the
|
||
148 sex act here only takes an hour or
|
||
149 less, and does not last nearly a full
|
||
150 3 days as it does back home.
|
||
151 The female wanted to stop after only
|
||
152 about 2 hours, but she has promised to
|
||
153 come back soon. "No charge baby, you're
|
||
154 the best!" She also liked my outward
|
||
155 appearance. Could you tell me why
|
||
156 they chose the Earth male, Tom Selleck,
|
||
157 to copy for my earthly body. He is quitepopular here, and the natives keep on
|
||
158 asking me for something called an "Autograph". Well the only "Autograph" is my
|
||
159 communication setup to Utrean and I do
|
||
160 not intend to give that away. I must
|
||
161 close for now, group brother, and I
|
||
162 hope I will see you soon.

275 .
|

276 (Doesn't that blow your mind?)
|

277 .
|

278 It seems that I have been on vacation for the last couple of months. And did I
|
||
279 bother to say I was departing? NO! That is lack of responsibility...
|
||
280 It also seems, however, that some very odd things have been going on and/or started
|
||
281 while I was gone. Anyone taking responsibility for that?
|
||
282 .
|

283 .
|
||
284 The Swanmp Thing never did like THE BIT BUCKET. The Swamp Thing never did use his
|
||
285 brain to figure out that-GEE-he never HAD to call the BUCKET. TST reminds me of a certain
|
||
286 -NDG-
|
||
287 Although I really doubt it.
|
||
288 .
|

289 And WHO is this Triple Five guy? Well, at least he tells us he's here all the time.
|
||
290 Whoopee!

|
||
348 Hello fellow scribes, poets and freelancers of every sort. We're looking
|
||
349 for a littl help (possibly with spelling?). Writer's Northwest Handbook
|
||
350 is a literary directory of the NW: OR, WA, ID, MT, AK, & BC. It list
|
||
351 writers' markets and publications/publishers of general interest, with as
|
||
352 much info as possible (& economical) on each. The first edition had over
|
||
353 1,000 publishers of periodials or books, plus 25 short articlesand other
|
||
354 resources.
|
||
355 .
|
||
356 We're preparing the Second Edition and want to make sure we don't miss
|
||
357 any listings. So, if you know of any publication, electronic or otherwise,
|
||
358 which ought to be listed in such a directory, please give us a call at
|
||
359 621-3911. Ask for Dennis, Linny or Doug. If you're interested in the book,
|
||
360 we'll gladly fill you in. We're working closely with the writer's groups,
|
||
361 libraries, arts commissions, teachers and other interested folks to
|
||
362 deepenthe already strong literary tradition of the region.
|
||
363
|
||
364 Thanks for any help you might give,

369 ==========================================================================
|

370 How could anyone in their right mind come to Backwater looking for anything
|
||
371 to do with literature? Apparently, ole Denny is new to BWMS.
|
||
372 555: to avoid any confusion, this is the first line of my entry.
|
||
373 My marker is a bunch of '__' with the date, Julian Day number (JD #######)
|
||
374 and the time. If it does not include my *name* then it is a marker only.
|
||
375 Not the bottom of a message. There are a lot of markers on this board.
|
||
376 There are a lot of unsigned msgs. To avoid alienating people try to avoid

453 Someone caught movement in the corner of his eye and yelled in warning at the
|
||
454 last possible second to enable Eugene to jump out of the way of the first
|
||
455 swing of the android. Garret recovered in an instant, and squeezed off two
|
||
456 rounds at it before seeing that the android was proof against bullets.
|
||
457 Nick dove for IAN1, and in a calm voice that denied the fear that welled within
|
||
458 him, began giving it detailed instructions. Sweat formed on his brow as debris
|
||
459 from the rampaging IAN4 flew about him.
|
||
460 Farley quickly grabbed the first weapon-like object to come to hand- a
|
||
461 soldering gun. He cursed himself and threw the gun at the android, all the
|
||
462 while searching for something to halt it.
|
||
463 Garret kicked at it, seizing the distraction Farley had caused. A hollow thud
|
||
464 echoed in the lab, and for a few moments the android was off balance.
|
||
465 Nick muttered the last few words to IAN1 while dodging a flying soldering gun.
|
||
466 IAN1 advanced on its twin, grabbing a beaker filled with liquid on a bench.
|
||
467 Farley had taken to throwing EVERYTHING in reach toward IAN4; most of the
|
||
468 objects missed or just broke against it with no effect, save distraction.
|
||
469
|
||
470 IAN1 rapidly approched its mirror-image with the beaker. With equally fast
|
||
471 response, IAN4 turned to meet his assailant.
|
||
472 It was then that Farley threw a makeshift Molotov cocktail (made from a flask
|
||
473 of ethanol, a bit of Farley's shirt, a stopper, and lit with a Bunsen burner)
|
||
474 which hit IAN4 directly on the face.
|
||
475
|
||
476 With its visual sensors impaired, it was no problem at all for IAN1 to pour
|
||
477 the aqua reiga over IAN4's brain cavity.

493 I remember your names. For two long years I have been without a voice. Finally

494 I have recovered the power of speech. Is our friendly innkeeper still his

|

496 conclave at an interesting place called the MT Bottle and Deli. Tell me,
|

497 is the tree Pam planted still there? Only if you know the tree will I know I
|
||
498 have in truth found my friends. I see that even the Man in Grey is still with
|
||
499 us. Perhaps there is hope. My friend, Piper, would you be so kind as to
|
||
500 play a shoort skirl to bring me stronger into focus. I have suffered long not
|

501 hearing from all of you. (Did we complete the quest ? My memory was blanked

510 ave a serious inquiry for Backwater Users. Is there, in your opinion,

511 a real reason to oppose the storage of high level nuclear waste at the
|

512 Hanford Nuclear Reservation ? Or is it just a lot of political Hoopla ?
|

513
|

514 What are the actual dangers ? Surely such an erudite group as the BW

515 Users has investigated this question, haven't you ? Lend me the benefit

516 f your discoveries.
|

517
|

518 This is being made out to be a very important issue, and it appears from
|

519 the news media that the reasons for choosing Hanford have nothing at all
|

520 to do with technical matters. It seems entirely political. Am I being

|

581 Any of the books by Spider Robinson about "Callahan's Place", a pub set on
|
||
582 the edge of time and space, where the common is uncommen and the drinks
|
||
583 very tasty, thank you.
|
||
584 Anyone who has become disalusioned with Backwater is requested to
|
||
585 read any of the three books about this place. Much as the INN is reality,
|
||
586 Callahan's is fantasy. A phsycal place for the perverted and twisted such
|
||
587 as the Backwater "regulars" woudl be welcome. The only problem being one
|
||
588 of phsyycal location: where do you locate an arranged and licensed insane
|

589 asylum? Here's a glass to the INN, andt to the barkeep; for what its worth.
