This is mathematics, not dirty laundry. Sincerely, Harel From: kaul@ee.eng.ohio-state.edu (Rich Kaul) Date: Thu, 2 May 91 19:52:47 EDT No offense intended, but I hope that your netiquette has improved to the point where you actually got permission from all those involved before posting their personal mail to the network. It's considered impolite at the very least to post mail without permission; some would call it things that are not as nice as that :-) -rich From: kaul@ee.eng.ohio-state.edu (Rich Kaul) Date: Thu, 2 May 91 19:52:47 EDT No offense intended, but I hope that your netiquette has improved to the point where you actually got permission from all those involved before posting their personal mail to the network.

In any case as soon as our new newsgroup is set up I would be very happy to help with your local peace group -- I can now send you some archived files e.g. resource file listings of speakers, videos, etc; and if you are trying to start a campus paper, do you know about the prog-pubs mailing list? My own knowlege is rather limited, despite my busy activism, wrt the UseNet, but I'll by glad to try to answer any questions you might have, or forwared them to someone more knowledgeable so I can learn in the process... In peace Harel ****************************************************************** To: CCSA_30@RCKHRST1.BITNET cc: harelb@ZAPHOD, harelb Subject: Re: Usenet info In-reply-to: Your message of Fri, 23 Nov 90 15:50:00 -0500. -------- I am very new to networked computer systems, and have recently lear ned about ACTIV-L from a friend when i expressed interest in starting a local student peace movement. i had heard about Peacenet, but had not yet subscribed because of financial barriers... i have recently learned about the Ldbase facilities on UMCVMB.bitnet, and so have accessed the ACTIV-L archives, and in doing so, read some of your posts concerning newsgroups on a system called Usenet. Please forgive my ignorance and if time allows give me some background on that network and how to use it... i have two accounts, one on a VAX that has Bitnet only access, but i can gateway through UKANVAX, and the other on MCIMAIL.com which has internet access... any info on that network (subscribing to newsgroups, getting list of newsgroups, etc , and the status of your peace.pach group would be appreciated.) Thank you, Dan Cohn CCSA_30@RCKHRST1.bitnet 4410551@MCIMAIL.Com ****************************************************************** From harelb Thu May 2 17:53:00 1991 To: LLAFRAMBOISE@TrentU.ca In-reply-to: Larry Laframboise's message of Wed, 1 May 1991 09:38 EST <20C0542C80001ED0@TRENTU.CA> Subject: What difference will UseNet make I don't entirely understand your question.
