FOOD FOR THOUGHT
=================================================================
Success is not in the future. Success is accomplished each moment. It
is whatever you are doing and wherever you are. Your promotions are
the reward for the successes.
-- Horst Schulze

EDITORIAL
=================================================================
Fidonet on the Web
OK, so it seems I got what I asked for, albeit not in the format I
would have preferred. Ergo, all our readers of the FIDONEWS echo now
get a re-run of Thom's contribution, but here, later in this issue, it
is, nevertheless. It will be repeated in the Snooze for at least a
couple of weeks, probably more.
As for this, obviously rather sensitive matter of "who's got the
biggest Snooze site on the 'net'", let me just remind all of you
contestants, that so far, I haven't found any site that have the same
fantastic Snooze availability that the old fidonews.org site had.
Anyone that ever visited Jim's .org site know what I'm talking
about. Reading the Snooze, neatly presented article by article rather
than in the text format, that hundreds of sites have to offer, makes a
huge difference to the readers. If there's anyone out there, that can
offer the Snooze in the same fantastic format that Jim did, feel free
to contact the Snooze editor, and I sure as h*ll will put a link to
your site in the end of the Snooze.
As a service to those of you, that want to have a go at this
challenge, I've created a file echo, simply called SNOOZE, that has
all the Snooze articles as separate files in it, so you don't have to
make your robot try to figure out all the "new page" and other stuff,
to make HTML-pages of the articles. Feel free to contact your nearby
mail hub to get this file echo. If you cannot find it somewhere, drop
me a mail and I'll be happy to set up a direct link to you.
If I had the time, and, even more importantly, the bandwidth, I
would of course set up a fidonews.org alike site myself, but
unfortunately that's not the case, so I leave it to all you
HTML-wizards out there to pick up that special baton. I just hope that
at least one or two of you know how to handle extended character sets,
there's very little of that on any of the Snooze related sites today.
* * * *
And please, don't forget to contact Robert Couture with information
about Fidonet related software. You don't even have to be the author,
to do that. If you find some really good, Fido-related, s/w somewhere,
don't hesitate to contact Robert, so that he can check out if it's of
value to the rest of our readers.
Some entries in the list have now been removed, and some have been
added. I urge all of you to proof read the list, and send any comments
to Robert, so that we all can help make the list as reliable as
possible.

IN THE SNOOZE TEN YEARS AGO
=================================================================
Dear Editor-Beings Prelude: While holding his nose, Charles Herriot
(1:163/110) submits the latest missive from Doc Logger which was
delivered by courier wrapped around a large quantity of polar bear
livers. In a postscript, Logger suggests that the inclusions are to be
used in some form of ritual involving Fidogods. Roll da flic,
Sylvia....
Uncle Bill's Home for Wayward TonTon Macoutes,
Armalite, Argentina
S0D 0RF
Dear Reverend Visage,
I was dismayed that you had ventured to one of the more dangerous
parts of the world. While Mr. Bill was sending thousands of troops to
correct traffic patterns in Haiti, more people died of gunshot wounds
in downtown Washington, D.C. than had died of unnatural causes in the
preceding two months of ugliness in Port Au Prince. You have to admire
the priorities at work and the Excited States must be positively
drooling at the prospect of helping Iraq locate the border markers in
Kuwait.
I was further dismayed to read in the paper that Prince Charles had
sixteen badgers shot on one of his estates. It seems that he was
worried that they would somehow pass on TB to his cattle, but the
*real* reason must have something to do with the fact that they were
poised to write a salacious kiss-n-tell story involving Princess Di.
You can't trust badgers, Visage, as I've mentioned on more than a few
occasions and its a darned fine thing to see our future monarch doing
something other than expressing a desire to live in the trousers of
his paramours.
Ms. Labamba was positively gushing when she mentioned that the large
crate of inflatable Hillary Clinton dolls had arrived from Rick Arnold
at Rune's Rag (1:2601/522). Dooya think that if I mentioned Rune's Rag
( a fine electronic publication, available from 1:2601/522) that Rick
would send the batteries that appear to be missing from the
aforementioned shipment?
I hesitate to mention Net250 after you had me followed by trained
marksmen armed with Thorazine tipped blowguns, but it appears that our
beloved but non-sentient RC, Rick "Bury The Rest of Me At Wounded
Knee" Johnston, is about to embark on another act of abject idiocy. It
seems that he is about to overrule a policy complaint that was filed
and rejected by the NC250. The complaint itself, was so profoundly
childish and snivelling that it wouldn't have been taken seriously by
a kindergarten teacher, but Rick "The Night of The Living Unread"
Johnston has applied his keen jurisprudent mind to the issue. Look for
flaming nodenumbers on the Northern horizon as this saga sinks deeper
into the slimepit.
FIDONEWS 21-42 Page 4 18 Oct 2004
I understand now, why you were unable to locate the ZC, Bob Satti (cue
the plague of frogs), in your rambling through Canada's west.
Apparently, Mr. Satti (sacrificing another hamster in deference to the
Fidogods) has opined that he will see Nets 163 & 243 force marched to
the altar before his term expires. Mercifully, he has also stated that
he cannot turn his attention to the divorced Ottawa nets until the
range warfare in Region 13 is subdued. Might I suggest, as a measure
of the kind of deep concern that we feel towards these things, that we
air freight our four hundred pound Samoan attorney to Region 13 so
that their squabbles are prolonged long enough to outlast Mr. Satti's
(cue the flood) tenure?
On almost the same issue, I note that in the Z1-Election echo, various
Fidogods keep citing PeeFour as some sort of Divine Doctrine. It would
be unsurpassing rude of me, I suppose, to point out that PeeFour was
never ratified, never voted upon, and has all the authority of Cheese
Whiz. The fact that PeeFour entrenches the incestuous clubbiness of
Fidogods is reason enough to place the document in a position where
the sun doesn't shine and someday the elflords who keep invoking it
will learn that the sysop peasantry don't need to be "controlled." The
Z1_Election denizens are debating whether the secular state of
*EC-beings can create their own policy nightmare. They miss the point
entirely, in that the more rules they create, the more Fidocriminals
they will engender.
I must go Visage, your secretary has the kind of bovine gleam in her
eye that Rudolph must have had the day he met Bambi, and I have no
desire to father any children whose noses glow red in the dark. As a
good and decent gesture, I suggest that we send her to the White House
where she can become one of Mr. Bill's UnderSecretaries. Her distemper
has nothing at all to do with the fact that the Snooz editors refused
to honour your expense tab from Washington for the services of "St.
Brigitte's All Nude Girl's Tuba Marching Band." I think it was the
tubas, Visage, because Don Tees was heard to mutter something about
the value of "art."
Regards,
Doc Logger,
3rd Baseman In The Rye,
Holden Caulfield School of Fencing,
Shuckmagosh, Ohio

FIDONET BY INTERNET
=================================================================
Fidonet Related Websites
Thom LaCosta
1:261/1352
One approach to tracking and viewing Fidonet related websites is to
visit webrings that specialize in Fidonet.
A webring is a method where sites having a common theme advertise
other websites with simailar themes. The advantage to the webring
concept is that in theory, the sites have an interest in maintaining
an accuate listing and can modify their own listings on a site by site
basis.
It appears that there are two fidonet webrings....the long-running
system at http://b.webring.com/hub?ring=fidonet and another at
http://www.fidonet.us/fidoring/
The ring at webring.com is larger, but forces the viewer to look at
google ads panels. The smaller ring at fidonet.us does not dpend on
adverstising revenue from ads.
Sysops with Fidonet related websites should consider joining one or
both rings.
Thom

FIDONEWS INFORMATION
=================================================================
How to Submit an Article
If you wish to submit an article for inclusion in the Fidonews, here
are some guidelines, if you send it as an attached file; the preferred
method if you want reasonable control over how the published article
will appear in the Fidonews:
a) Plain ASCII text. If you could type it on your keyboard, it's
probably quite OK. No line may be longer than 70 characters.
b) Put a title to the article. Put the title in two times. The first
time, on the first line, with an * before it. The second time, on
the second line, without the * and centered. This will help in the
format since the title with the * is removed and used in the index,
the second line will become the headline. On the third line, put
your name and FidoNet address, present or former. If former, you
may want to add some other address where you can be reached for
personal comments.
c) Deadline for article submission is Sunday, 12:00 UTC.
Help the Editor by following the above guides. Below are some subjects
and the file extension for the article as set in the configuration
file for the making of the Fidonews. Please help by putting the file
extension of the correct subject on the file name if known..
Ideas for Subject areas:
Subject File | Subject File
----------------------------------|----------------------------------
From the *C's *.css | Rebuttals to articles *.reb

Best of Fidonet *.bof | Letters to the Editor *.let
If you don't know or are not sure, send the article anyway. Put a .TXT
on it and I'll try to figure out where it should be in the Fidonews.
If you follow these simple guidelines, there should be little problem
in getting your article published. If your submission is too far out
of specs for the Fidonews, it will be returned to you and/or a message
sent informing you of the problem. This DOES NOT mean that your
article is not accepted. It means that there is something in it that I
can not fix and I need your help on it.
FIDONEWS 21-42 Page 14 18 Oct 2004
Send articles via e-mail or netmail, file attach or message to:
Björn Felten
Fidonet 2:2/2
E-Mail bfelten @ telia dot com
IMPORTANT! If you send the article via e-mail, make sure you put the
word "fidonews" somewhere in the subject line! That way it
will always pass the spam filter, ending up in the proper
folder.
Please include a message, telling me that you have sent an article.
