152 ************
|
||
153 One of the really disappointing things about most people is that they have not learned to abbreviate.
|
||
154 A thousand billion megabytes (or so) have been wasted by such people. Everyone should get into this habit. In their
|
||
155 everyday life.
|
||
156 I realize that memory is getting very cheap. I remember a time when it was very expensive.
|
||
157 And hazardous to your health. There is an national arthritis/tendonitis clinic outside Apache Junction, Arizona, for
|
||
158 former Altair owners.That was, of course, before software switching....)
|
||
159 Well, now, what will we do if there should be a memory shortage?
|
||
160 I mean, suppose the Arabs or the Japanese corner the market- DRAMS could go up to forty dollars a barrel. Static
|
||
161 ram would be off the dial.
|
||
162 Then everyone would start to get memory conscious. People would start to gravitate toward smaller machines. Like
|
||
163 the model 100, which I think is a gem! CP/M stock would stop falling and start to stabelize... MS-DOS would begin
|
||
164 a long declining factor.
|
||
165 In an attempt to take over the market, IBM would announce the production of a 100% PC compatable 1024K ram 80 column
|
||
166 by 24 line *COLOR* multiplexed LCD display, and a free handcart to carry the batteries.
|
||
167 The possibilities are unlimited.
|
||
168 We can all prevent such a takeover by getting into the habit of emulating our machines.
|
||
169 "Our lives are cluttered with details. Tokenize , tokenize.
|
||
170 Let's say that you just got a new mother in law. You want to store some information about her.
|
||
171 You know that she has a pet canary. So instead of making a file called "My mother in law's pet canary, you call it
|
||
172 MLPTCNY.
|
||
173 Now read it a couple of times while thinking about Sylvester the Pussycat, and you have it memorized.
|
||
174 Now-whenever you need to make reference to Sylvesters lunch, you just type "MLPTCNY"; and you will always know what
|
||
175 it means. Think of the googlebytes that can be saved by doing this.
|
||
176 The military has been doing it for years. That's why we still have trees.
|
||
177 For example, instead of saying 'Commander in chief, Pacific fleet, they say 'COMCINCPAC'. Saves a lot of bytes.
|
||
178 This type of thinking has another benefit. Let's say you have a roommate that you like to play mind games with. You
|
||
179 start leaving notes pinned to the inside of the door to your room, saying stuff like 'SCBSHTFIN'
|
||
180 Well, he see's this, and starts thinking- what can it mean? He gets paranoid, and starts to imagine things... Hmmm
|
||
181 'Steal crib sheet for final...'
|
||
182 How did he know I had a crib sheet??? Instant paranoia...
|
||
183 So- let us unite and abbreviate. Form talk groups. Have regular meetings. Saturdays at the BPA building are good...
|
||
184 Let's write to our elected officials, send telegrams to the White House...
|
||
185 Someone who'se child started dealing drugs to get money for more memory might start an organization called MAYHEM.
|
||
186 (Mothers Against Youths Harmed [by] Expensive Memory...
|
||
187 A certain Albanian I know might exploit the market by selling 'plunged' chips...We've all got to prevent this by co

253 Division by 0 is an illegal operation. You are not allowed to do it. If
|
||
254 you attempt it, you can be arrested by the Math Police, hauled into Math
|
||
255 Court, tried by a jury of your (rational) peers and sentenced to an extremely
|
||
256 large number of years of long division. Repeat after me:
|
||
257 "I will not attempt to divide by zero. I will not attempt to divide by zero.
|
||
258 I will ..."
|
||
259 Now that it is thoroughly ingrained into your system that you can't divide
|
||
260 by zero, welcome to Calculus 101.

261 "We all know that it's illegal to divide by zero. Now, let's see what would

287 than normal levels of radiation outside a plant in *Sweden*. Then a Swedish

289 a year it would be the equivalent of one x-ray). But note that this is

378 "I=1 and I+K=L But K-L= zero." The elder wrote with confidence.

379 "No, that cannot be. You would be re-writing the principles of..."
|

380 "I haven't given you the conditionals on that statement yet."
|

381 "You don't have to. As it stands, that statement is false."
|

382 The dust on the chalkboard hung idly as the two discussed.
|

383 "I know, but humor me for a second will you? Taking into

384 consideration all the universal variables it will all boil down to..."
|

385 The collegue pointed to the impure algebra. "That."

393 Tass, Soviet News Agency, reports 2 deaths due to the nuclear accident
|
||
394 in the Ukraine. It also says that 1 city and 3 towns near the nuclear
|
||
395 plant have been evacuated.
|
||
396 Poland is restricting the drinking of milk, produced from cows in open
|
||
397 pastures. Apparently the cloud of nuclear fumes is passing over their
|
||
398 airspace and dropping radioactive particles.
|
||
399 West German, Sweden are affirming that the Soviet Union has asked for,
|
||
400 and should get, aid in putting out the fres at the reactor site. Some
|
||
401 suspect they are chemical, and not nuclear, fires.
|
||
402 A final note, one news syndicate is now reporting 1000 died working on
|
||
403 the reactor site, 2000 died during first aid, and 100 deaths have been

404 reported since medical aid has been given.

437 The scene: a darkened workroom. Large piles of books with such titles as
|
||
438 'FD-78 AI Spec Listings' and 'Outline of AI Architecture' lie about the room,
|
||
439 mingled also with stacks of thinner volumes sporting colorful titles like
|
||
440 'Ambush Bug' and 'Firestorm Annual.' But even the massive quantities of
|
||
441 reading material is dwarfed by the amountf electronic parts, testing equipment,
|
||
442 and other miscellaneous junk carefully placed upon the long workbench that
|
||
443 occupies nearly half the room. The dials and screens of the equipment dully
|
||
444 reflect the phosphor glow of a nearby monitor; the monitor itseflf is surrounded
|
||
445 by a vast array of computer aequipment, the whole of which is upon a large desk
|
||
446 all its own.
|
||
447 A figure sits hunched over the keyboard, intently studying the words that
|
||
448 flicker briefly by before dying an electronic death. The figure was,
|
||
449 incidentally, striving to reverse another sort of electronic death that fate
|
||
450 had dealt out some months before. The little green dots upon the screen
|
||
451 formed words:

|
||

|
||
458 The figure rotates his swivel chair to study the looming mountain of
|
||
459 'black boxes', with its surrounding foothills of paper. A cloud shuffles
|
||
460 past and exposes the waxing moon; Luna in turn sends a moonbeam though the
|
||
461 window to reveal the plain features of the dark-haired aagent as he ponders
|
||
462 how he may fplacate the yearning within.
|
||
463 Convincing anyone to help would be difficult. A phrase drifted through
|
||
464 this thought- something about "crossing bridges".
|
||
465 First to get Parity. He knoew France and California well and would be
|
||
466 indispensable . Perhaps Fellows would come along. Joshua was still enjoying
|
||
467 the pleasures of Nirvana, but maybe some promised excitement would rouse him.
|
||
468 If not, well, there might be others.
|
||
469 Eugene shut down his computer and began to gather what he would need.
|
||
470 A half-hour later heverything was in the car. Now, where was Parity now,
|
||
471 anyway? Oh, yes. Farley began to drive fm his home to one of NETs training

|

523 "Hey, you... stop!" yelled the policeman twenty yards back.
|
||
524 The Rat, knowing that the policeman meant him ducked around a left corner
|
||
525 and hurried up the escalator. Not long now before they close down the whole
|
||
526 place he thought to himself. These transport stations were high on security
|
||
527 and he knew that he must make it outside before they heard from that lone
|
||
528 policeman behind him. The Rat had valid I.D. of course, but grew impatient
|
||
529 waiting in line for verification. Not even the I.D. he held now would hold up
|
||
530 under their careful scrutiny.
|
||
531 So he had to make it out now before they picked him out or shut down the
|
||
532 whole building. Not many criminals these days. The last major thief had just
|
||
533 been caught. Yes, it was hard to make a living as a thief anymore with all of
|
||
534 the high tech equipment the government had now. The Rat was a thief. More
|
||
535 than likely, one of the very last of his kind. Now he was being hunted by
|
||
536 the cat, but this Rat still had a few more tricks left before they caught him.
|
||
537 He chuckled to himself as he entered the men's restroom. Probably three
|
||
538 cameras. Yes there were three. One behind the mirror, and one in each corner
|
||
539 of the small room. The cameras weren't visible to the ordinary person, but
|
||
540 The Rat had trained himself to spot them, his survival depended on it.
|
||
541 He took off his coat and hung it over the first camera in the corner. The
|
||
542 camera in the other corner was covered by his shirt. He would have to hurry
|
||
543 now before they got too nervous. The Rat turned his back to the mirror and
|
||
544 produced the transport ticket he had bought. He changed the destination to
|
||
545 a planet on the outer fringes of the galaxy. The trip there would be cheaper
|
||
546 and even if the found out the ticket had been changed, they probably would
|
||
547 just think it was a mistake since no one would alter their ticket for a less
|
||
548 expensive flight. The Rat put his shirt and coat back on and left the room.
|
||
549 There had been no time to put on a disguise.
|
||
550 The sirens in the transport area were already humming and the doors
|
||
551 leading outside were closed and locked. He had made the right choice he
|
||
552 thought to himself as the door to his transport closed and took off for his
|
||
553 new destination.
