Toronto: APL@50

by silent700＠gmail.com

Hello language fans - I've been notified that the folks at York University in Toronto are celebrating the 50th anniversary of the APL programming language on November 1 of this year. The event is dedicated to the 50th anniversary of APL and will include invited lectures, exhibits, demos, movies, etc. They sent me a PDF flyer which I have posted here: chiclassiccomp.org/apl50invite.pdf Too far and too soon for me but I hope someone on the list can make it! -- jht

uVAX-II avaliable ( Switzerland )

by jdr_use＠bluewin.ch

I bought it, hoping there would be 1 or 2 RD54's inside the system. This was not to be.... So available, in Zurich, Switzerland : uVAX II in a BA123 enclosure, complete, ( KA650=B 8 MB), with RF215 ( 400MB DSSI disk ) and TK70 Boots into VMS. I would prefer to see my 50 CHF back, but am open to discussion. Jos

semi-OT: alternatives to common e-mail services

by rampaginggreenhulk＠yahoo.com

Are there any? Of course they are limitless, for instance asking a comrade access to their server space. But barring any of that, is there any available for a modest or no fee? I hear the commercial for reagan.com, and besides the fact that I refuse to participate in the growing Reagan cult (have ample respect for the man, but please), and I'd, right now, rather not shell out 40$ a year. ?Oh I forgot, I have my own domain (indiscreetlogic.com), but haven't had the time or inclination to muss with ? it. Is there an alternative to the demoniac Yahoo!, Hotmail, Gmail in the interim? I wish to, if at all possible, avoid having my e-mails scanned (like that isn't going to happen), or having to inadvertently support causes and movements that will ultimately subjugate humanity, promote aberrant anti-social behavior, bolster the Federal Reserve, the Tri-Lateral Commission, the rise of the Anti-Christ, etc. etc. I love kittens too. No funds should be funneled into organization that fail to support the advancement, emancipation, and general well being of kittens. And honey badgers.

If the post contains useful information then it should be generally available. If it doesn't, or contains "private" info, then it doesn't belong here in the first place. Simple. mike

cctalk being indexed (again)

I'm nowhere near as useful as most of the folks on the list, but I think of the list and its archive as an incredible resource to help out anyone interested in this hobby - of whom there are not (in my opinion) enough, and anything we can do to encourage more is a good idea. Informative posts from e.g. Tony (how do I disassemble this monitor, and where am I likely to get a nasty surprise if uninitiated?) or Fred (what's the format of this floppy that I need to read likely to be?) look to me like the essence of the list, and the quicker they are accessible to the more people, the better. If indexing helps facilitate that, right on. If indexing make me think twice about my posts, well, that may well be a good thing too. I clearly recall a post where I gave the resistor color-code *wrong* (!) because I typed way faster than I thought (and I don't type that fast...); could be if I'd remembered people might pick my post up on a google search, I'd have been a bit more careful. -- - Mark 210-379-4635 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Large Asteroids headed toward planets inhabited by beings that don't have technology adequate to stop them: Think of it as Evolution in Fast-Forward.
