46 Quizmaster:I, too, look forward to meeting you. Since I can't add anything to
|

47 the adventure until The Doctor says something, I've nearly run out of things
|

48 to say. Still working on the character groupings (not much, on and off,

51 Quizmaster: You are using a TRS-80 Model-1 (I can tell by the keyboard specs).
|
||
52 There are TWO "standard" key layouts. The one you have is a "computer" layout
|
||
53 the person who left the puzzle has a "typewriter" layout. The typewriter layout
|
||
54 is becoming the most common!
|
||
55 On another subject, do you want the answer to the group problem? Or would
|
||
56 you like to give Milchar a bit more time? Here is a NEW clue to that question
|
||
57 the groups given are groups 2 thru 7, group 0 contains "space". There
|
||
58 are you any less confused?

64 in semi-auto. Push it like so, and you're in FULL AUTO mode. Watch out though,

65 if you fire more than a couple of magazines on full auto, plastic cased shells

82 Paradimethylaminobenzaldehyde,
|

83 Sodium Citrate, Ammonium Cyanide;
|
||
84 Mix 'em together and add some benzene
|
||
85 And top off the punch with trichloroeth'lene.
|

86
|
||
87 Got gassed up last night on some forfuryl alcohol,
|
||
88 Followed it up with a gallon of propanol,
|
||
89 Tanked up on hydrazine 'til after noon,
|
||
90 Then spat on the floor and blew up the saloon!
|
||
91
|
||
92 Para-dimethyl-amino-benzaldehyde,
|
||
93 Powdered aluminum, nitrogen iodide,
|
||
94 Chlorates, permanganates, nitrates galore;
|
||
95 Just swallow one drink and you'll never need more.
|
||
96
|
||
97 Whiskey, tequila and rum are too tame;
|
||
98 No, the stuff that I drink must explode into flame
|
||
99 When I breathe and dissolve all the paint in the room,
|

100 And rattle the walls with a ground-shaking boom.

101

102 Paradimethylaminobenzaldehyde,

103 Go soak your head in a good strong insecticide;

104 Slosh it around and impregnate your brain

105 With dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane.
|

106
|
||
107 Keep your methanol, ethanol, n-butyl acetate,
|
||
108 None of them work I'm to hard to intoxicate.
|
||
109 I don't consider a drink to be strong
|
||
110 If it's carbon chains aren't at least twelve atoms long.
|

111
|

112 Paradimethylaminobenzaldehyde,
|

113 Methyl methacrylate, partly solidified,

114 Add copper sulfate for beautiful hues,

115 And drink it all down for those Plexiglass blues.

117 At the Inn, a piece of paper appeared in midair with a pop and drifted
|
||
118 into the apprentice's lap. Picking it up he noted that it was a song sheet with
|
||
119 the number 18 at the top.
|
||
120 He gave a laugh, and placed it in his pouch saying "I see that
|
||
121 my friend's trap has caught yet another victim. I trust that it has been worth
|

122 every penny he paid my master to fashion it!"

213 As the people who use the Beaverton RCP/M regularly
|
||
214 know, Dave Morgan has decided to make it a membership sys-
|
||
215 tem. For $25/year, members will be allowed to access all of
|
||
216 the public domain software which Dave collects and use it
|
||
217 for their own purposes. They can, of course, still upload
|
||
218 software to the RCP/M.
|
||
219 In fact, the more software uploaded to the RCP/M is
|
||
220 better. At an as-of-yet unspecified ratio, Dave will grant
|
||
221 a certain amount of free membership time in return for the
|
||
222 uploading of programs.
|
||
223 For those people who are not members, they will be res-
|
||
224 tricted to Drive and User Area A0: on Dave's system, where
|
||
225 they will be allowed to download only the DISKMENU.DQC file,
|
||
226 containing a list of all of the files on Dave's system.
|
||
227 (When you see all of the programs you're missing, you'll be
|
||
228 sure to sign up as a member.)
|
||
229 Just in case you want to know where your money is going
|
||
230 once you send it to Dave, he's not investing it in the gold
|
||
231 market. He's going to put it right back into the RCP/M,
|
||
232 paying the phone bills, long distance charges while getting
|
||
233 more programs and system maintenance. If enough subscrip-
|
||
234 tions are entered, he might even get enough money to buy
|
||
235 more equipment for the RCP/M. This would include stuff like
|
||
236 a larger hard disk, so he can store more programs, more Sin-
|
||
237 gle Board Computers so he could have two RCP/M's running off
|
||
238 of the same data files, and many other things. The possi-
|
||
239 bilities are limitless with the support of his users.
|
||
240 The price is very reasonable and the service is well
|
||
241 worth it. Become a member of the Beaverton RCP/M as soon as
|
||
242 you can.
|
||
243
|
||
244 Kim Flowers, assistant sysop of the Beaverton RCP/M
|
||
245
|
||
246 P.S. Remember that the system will be open more often
|
||
247 than it is now because the people who don't think the price
|
||
248 is worth it, will not be using it. That is another advan-
|
||
249 tage to the membership system.
|
||
250
|
||
251 P.P.S. I forgot to mention something: these changes
|
||
252 will take effect on June 15th, 1984. Send those bucks!
|
||

254 P.P.P.S. Send your name, address and money to:

|
||
259 ========================================================================
|
||
260 The time is ripe for a Beaverton RCP/M pizza party. If
|
||
261 I remember correctly, this was suggested some time ago in
|
||
262 the shrouds of history, but I don't remember if it was car-
|
||
263 ried out.
|
||
264 Dave Morgan's stomach is empty and growling (I can hear
|
||
265 it in Aloha) and the only thing that will satisfy it is
|
||
266 PIZZA! But it's no fun eating pizza by yourself; you have
|
||
267 to talk through it to your friend! So Dave is declaring the
|
||
268 Every-Now-And-Then Beaverton RCP/M Pizza Party.
|
||
269 Now comes the fun part. Where is this pizza party
|
||
270 going to take place? And when? Well, being patient, Dave
|
||
271 is going to leave that up to you. His favorite place is
|
||
272 Nonna Emilia's, somewhere around Aloha, but that is a little
|
||
273 too far for most of us.
|
||
274 So, if you have any comments for a place and/or time,
|
||
275 just send them to me! I'll take care of all the sugges-
|
||
276 tions, write them down and when the time comes, I'll post a
|
||
277 summary and we'll all take a vote. I'll also take sugges-
|
||
278 tions on the suggestions and how the suggestions should be
|
||
279 suggested, or vice versa. Maybe I should take a few
|
||
280 pointers on my jokes, too.
|
||
281 So spread the word; the RCP/M is having a pizza party
|
||
282 and everyone is invited. Bring money and suggestions.

|

286 P.S. Send your replies to me on CBBS, Bit Bucket, PCS,
|

287 the RCP/M, or the PMS because reading all of the messages on

300 ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
|
||
301 Since Milchar was complaining about me not continuing, here goes. (I was think-
|
||
302 ing about the best way!!)
|
||
303 ???????????
|
||
304 Milchar, Gizmo, Pand Psycho are all staring at the Doctor in a strange way.
|
||
305 They are all wondering how on wherever theey are, this man can provide trans-
|
||
306 portation. After a few moments of searching through his coat, the Doctor pulls
|
||
307 out a small object shaped remarkably like the Tardis. He sets it down, and
|
||
308 concentrates very hard, makes a few obscene gestures in the air, and it starts
|
||
309 to grow in size.!!! Even Milchar is surprised at the is new revelation. "I
|
||
310 thought that you left the Tardis back in Amber!" After unlocking the door, the
|
||
311 Doctor replies, "Are you serious?? I would never leave the old girl in a
|
||
312 place like that! It's a nice place, but the security sucks!!! Now, everyone,
|
||
313 inside!!!!" As they enter the tiny/large Time-Space vehicle, the two newly
|
||
314 aquired companions gasp in awe. The Doctor rushes over to the controls in the
|
||
315 center and starts pulling levers and pushing buttons. The giro in the center
|
||
316 of the control center starts moving up and down slowly. The Doctor sets the
|
||
317 coordinates for wherever they are going, and hits the start lever. After a few
|
||
318 minutes, the Tardis begins to shake uncontrolably. The Docotor finally gets his
|
||
319 faithful ship steadyed and exclaims that they have materialized. By some
|
||
320 strange feeling, he pulls out the 'Time-Key Detector'. It starts glowing very
|
||
321 brightly, and the Doctor bursts out laughing. "We've found it!!!" Milchar
|
||
322 turns to him,"We've found what???" "It's the KEY TO TIME!!!!! With it we can
|
||
323 easily defeat whoever's threatening the Inn!! The only problem is, The Black
|
||
324 Guardian. He's not a threat in himself, but if he has the Key to Time...."
|
||
325 "Great." mutters Milchar. #Where do we find this <BLINK>??# "That's not an
|
||
326 easy question. So here's my plan.....
|
||
327
|
||
328 ??????????????????????????? The Doctor, Milchar, Gizmo, and Psycho ????????????
|
||
329 P.S.: Milch, it's your ball-game now......
|
||
330 ??????????????????????????????????????????? Us Again ???????????????????????????
|
||
331 While Greymalkin, Whisper, and the Apprentice are sitting around in the
|
||
332 common room of the inn the doors open and a fairly young man walks in.
|
||
333 There is a book floating in front of him and a small but bright light
|
||
334 floating slightly above and in back of his head. He seems to be reading
|
||
335 the book as every now then a page flips over by itself. He looks up
|
||
336 momentarily, glances around and then looks back at his book. Ale please,
|
||
337 he mumbles. By the way, would anyone mind if I opened up my library next
|
||
338 door. I like to drink you see and this looks to me like an extremely
|
||
339 compatible place. Hearing no disenting voices, he looks up for another moment
|
||
340 and thank you, the first rule of magic is "Variables won't, constants aren't".
|
||
341 Wandering outdoors again his drink floating alongside him and occasionally
|
||
342 rising to his lips, he pulls five small stone blocks of an unusual shape
|
||
343 from his pockets. Setting one down on the ground, he gestures and the light
|
||
344 floats down to sit just over the top of the stone and sjoots out almost

|

346 extend for exactly 20 feet and abruptly cut off. Pacing over to ends of the
|

347 beams the odd figure paces some more of the stones and gestures to his light
|
||
348 again. When he has finished a perfect pentagon has been outlined. He speaks
|
||
349 a few unusual and gutteral words. Stone walls shoot out from the small
|
||
350 stones and start rising up. When they have reached a hight of fifty feet
|
||
351 they begin to bend inward until they meet at a precise point seventy feet
|
||
352 above the ground. One more gutteral word and a door appears in the side of
|
||
353 tower closest to the inn. Be open tomorrow the figure says. Oh, sorry,
|

354 I'm THE LAZY ONE. Do you think something could be done about running a

442 OF SLEEP-SENDING HAD LOWERED HIS ENERGY RESERVES TO THE POINT OF NEARLY

493 FAMILIAR WITH THE CAPABILITIES OF A LANANARAN SINGLE SHIP, THERE WERE

494 THE MINOR DETAILS THAT FOR ONE, THE DEFORMED WALL WAS PHASING BACK AND

|

527 Should any students trying to decide on what highschool they should attend next year, let me recommend Benson to
|
||
528 those who are interested in learning an engineering trade. At Benson you have many different shop areas to consider.
|
||
529 So whether you plan to be a mechanic or electrician or any other technical trade, you will be able to find a shop which
|
||
530 attains to your trade. Benson also has excellent academics, and the city test scores show that this is true.
|
||
531 EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
|
||
532 Benson Tech : You won the 1984 Olympics of the Mind by a technicality, as they added ESTACADA's score incorrectly.
|
||
533 Your place of 'second' should be third, just after Estacada. If you do not believe me, just check with the OM office
|
||
534 or call up Mr. Clarence Bergevin and/or Mr. Bob Cutting, Science Department, Estacada High School. 630-xxxx is the
|
||
535 number to call....

542 One of the advantages of being royalty is that you can spell things any way

543 you damn well please. I will continue saying "HOE!", because it is somewhat

544 of a trademark. Time for me to join!

546 The door of the Inn flew open, and in stepped a man of slight stature, wearing
|
||
547 a cloak and other clothes of greens and browns in the classic rouge-ish
|
||
548 manner. He had a rather dingy look, but his personality glowed through the
|
||
549 beard and dirt. He walked casually over to the bar, pulled his short sword out
|
||
550 and rested it next to him and took a seat.
|
||
551 " Ale please, just good ale. "
|
||
552 He rotated around and looked at the others in the establishment. ' A fine lot
|
||
553 ', he thought to himself.
|
||
554 " Bartender, I'd like for my dog to sit with me."
|
||
555 The innkeeped nodded his approval, and the man called his animal inside. It
|
||
556 was obviously a wolf.
|
||
557 "He's tame enough. His name is Dawg. And my name is Charles Morby, son of
|
||
558 Olaf the horsethief. Don't worry, I'll pay my bills."
