"In their first intelligent move, the new government of British Columbia...".
Actually, this is about their fifth intelligent move.
From abolishing photo radar, to allowing competition
in auto insurance and privately
funded health clinics
the Liberals are on a roll.
I'm considering coming out of exile and returning
to Lotus Land.
Me Too !
If this is really ask whatever we'd like...
How in the world do you generate that unique hash of free-association, bafflegab, verbing,
just-this-side-of-understandable wording (not sure which side),
"Younglish" writing, for which you are reknowned?
And another excellent quality of cpunks that does
indeed impress the world of media boodthirstiness,
is the number of its outstanding writers sent to
jail, some repeatedly, for cutting edge taunts of
illiterate critics, diseased poobahs and for
sure, aesthetic cowards who ever try to pump up
their fiction with idiotic pretense of non-
fictional earnestness.
Now I know its a grave offense to those with
gravitas (spit) to ridicule their seriousness of
purpose and pretentious judgmentalism, but they
pose such easy targets, for all purposes I can
see, beg to be made fun of, display abysmal
ignorance of what they write, cite spurious
authorities for it, remind when it was first,
last, and forever written, just cannot forgo wild
swings at fantasms, urge close attention to their
pulp, deliver sweeping statements as if a world
authority, viciously attack untalented writers
like themselves, slather the most shallowly
manipulating praise ever imaginable, and probably
lay awake at night dreaming of triumph, a Nobel
Prize or violent heroic death before dishonor.
This is what I like about cypherpunks and find
repugnant about Cyberia which has produced no
jail time for its members, but more advice on how
to avoid it than is good for humanity. A refuge
for intellectural and corporal cowards, Cyberia,
among many other lists, is, but in time that will
hopefully change, in particular if I can persuade
you and Declan to go over the line all great
writers must do to spend jail-time among the
winners and stop sucking up to losers who will
always remain unimpressed having no judgment
worth writing about.
or better yet, wrt Stuart Baker,
When I first got within 20 trace aromas of the
lushness of Baker's double cultivated what-grows-
wild-elsewhere above his peepers, my bubonic
dingleberry squatters jumped cess to copulate
in his.
You think darkholed bugs, you think impenetrable
hedgerows to camouflage the skidmarks.

in August 2000 I ordered a Dell Optiplex GX110
over the web.
I did so by browsing 'big business customer...
Optiplex... Optiplex with Red Hat Linux',
then configured it to include a better sound
card, added it to my cart, then paid.
Three days later I received a communication from
DELL that there was a problem with my order,
and I should contact them.
Me: What's wrong with my order ?
Dell: Hmmm... looks it up...
You didn't specify an operating system.
Me: Which order was that ? Was it the Optiplex
GX110 with Red Hat Linux 6.2 ?
Dell: Yes.
Me: Dear Sir, I would like Red Hat Linux 6.2 on my
Dell system with Red Hat Linux 6.2 .
Dell: OK.
The system arrived and was set up fine.
About nine months later the NIC died and I
called Dell support and they tried to talk me
running through some diagnostics by running a
Win98 CD they included with the Linux system.
(I could boot off the CD and run dos mode
diagnostics, it worked.)
1990: (pre-ISP days) enroll in grad school to keep next access we became addicted to as undergrads. 2000: Enroll in summer school/extra senior year to keep high speed access.
