  1. earth911.org on Proper Disposal Of Old PCs? · · Score: 2, Informative

    I used http://www.earth911.org/ to find local places that would take my old (non-working) parts for free. They even took old laserdisc players and walkmans.

  2. The Author Responds on Internet Vigilante Justice, SPAM, and Copyrights · · Score: 1

    New Architect recieved a bunch of letters about that article and printed them in the October issue. Bret Fausett responded in the Letters section:

    "When it comes to mail administration, it appears I've been several years behind the curve. My mail server software, circa 1996, was purring along quietly, so I never upgraded it to a version capable of a higher degree of authentication. I'm also old enough to remember when an "open relay" was a relay intentionaly left open, not one merely susceptible to misuse. Thank s to all of the reader who wrote to bring me into the new millennium. Both my software and my definition are now upgraded.

    At the same time, I labeled the blackhole list operators "vigilantes" for good reason. It was always my understanding that if you lie about your identity to gain access to something that would be closed to you if you told the truth, you've done something wrong. That's tru whether you intend to send spam or prevent it. As vile as spam is, the ends don't justify the means. Regardless of whether my mail server used to be "open" or not, I stand by my analysis that placed legal responsibility on the blackhole operators who forged their identity."

  3. Re:Vanilla Coke / Upset Stomach on Gaming Fuel: 4-way Shootout · · Score: 1

    Real vanilla Coke made by adding vanilla syrup is fine. I've been drinking that for years. But the new bottled stuff is where the problem is.

    UPN is on TW now. Channel 20 for like four hours a night. http://www.twcinci.com/Cable/UPN_Press.asp
