Engineering
Sent in by Mark Lewis, 1:3634/12
Four engineers get into a car. The car won't start.
The Mechanical Engineer says: "It's a broken starter."
The Electrical Engineer says: "Dead battery."
The Chemical Engineer says: "Impurities in the gasoline."
The IT Engineer says: "Maybe we should get out of the car and get back in?"

Good News from Daryl Stout, 1:19/30:
After being down for the last 2 weeks, due to a power
supply shorting out, The Thunderbolt BBS is back online. A
delay in obtaining a "back ordered proprietary power
supply" was the reason for the delay.
Now, if the thunderstorms will just stay away for a bit.
Daryl Stout, WX1DER, Sysop
The Thunderbolt BBS, Little Rock, Arkansas
We analyze data, forecasts, and text...but wonder what
weather will happen next.

INFO:
Fidogazette is published by Janis Kracht, Editor.
If you have an idea for a column or a series of articles,
please contact me :)
New!
Mailing-List subscriptions via
http://www.filegate.net/sub.html
but of course you can always link into your uplink and use
Tick or a tick compatible program.
Where to Send Your Articles
Unlike most editors, I surely do not mind running my mouth
when there is a sparsity of articles for the 'zine. I'd
MUCH rather you sent in material... lacking that, I will
fill these issues with my meanderings and thoughts and
hopefully we will grow into something of consequence here
:)
Write an article!
If you WOULD like to submit an article, feel free to drop
your article off at:
Email attach to address: janis @ filegate.net
Fidonet attach: Janis Kracht at 1:261/38
Modem: 607-200-4076
Binkp: 1:261/100 filegate.net port 24555
telnet mailer: filegate.net
If you are using routed Fidonet mail, don't send articles as routed
attaches. They will fail somewhere along the path before getting here.
Send them instead direct to filegate.net.
Give it a title, sign your name and network address if you have
one and send it along!
Don't worry about the format, I can take anything you send me
and mutilate it further as you can see above. Linux is nice
that way (g). Spell checking your own work will help though
(something I'm typically guilty of (g)).
To send reviews or recipes to the Food section, email or
netmail Janis as above.
Email address for submissions to Dr.Debug:
To send a question to Dr. Debug, email a question to:
drdebug @ filegate.net
or post in the fidogazette echo! :)
To send a listing to the FidoGazette bbslist, email your
listing to:
bbslist @ filegate.net
or post it in the fidogazette echo!
