The FTSC election has concluded - with a total of 16 RCs
voting, along with 3 RECs... that includes as I noted in my
article, "And the Winners are...", 9 of 10 Zone 1 RCs voting,
but only _7_ out of 20 Z2 RCs casting a vote. Of the few
RECs that also also voted, 1 was from Zone 1, and 2 from
Zone2..
And still, in my Email folder Ward Dossche still mentions,
in his words to some people, "charades as we just witnessed
in the FTSC-election".
Charades?? The only charades I saw in the election at all
was Bjorn Felten's propensity to put his own foot in his
mouth.. possibly more than once.
Anyway, I'm glad to see that our Zone 1 RCs read the echo,
and obviously so did the members of their regions. Over here
in Zone 1, I felt we were fairly represented. A good number
of those Z1 RCs that voted consulted their regional members.

Region 16
When Jerry Schwartz R16C decided that it was necessary to
rebuild his system at some point in the future, it was
suggested by Jerry that Andrew Leary take over as RC. The
region was polled by Andrew as my request as to their
preferences and no objections to Andrew serving as the next
R16C were found.
As of nodelist.350, Andrew Leary will be in the nodelist as
R16C. Thanks for helping out, Andrew, and Congratulations
:)

What Not to Do After an Exhausting Day...
by Janis Kracht, 1:261/38,janis@filegate.net
I'm sure you know the kind of day I'm going to describe..
especially given the time of year.
On Tuesday, December 13th, refrains of "Jingle Bell Rock"
and "Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer" and more were piped
in the department stores and malls as weary shoppers
converged on the latest greatest deals, hoping to finish
up or for us, just darn start Christmas shopping!
One met with the typical types that day in the aisles..
"The Vacant Stare" shopper who is totally unaware of
everything and everyone around him or her.. these guys
SHOVE other shoppers, and GRAB what they want, or worse
yet race down aisles as if the end of the world is near,
and turn corners at blazing speeds, not noticing who they
may ram into... "The Cell-Phone Shopper" who can't make
a decision by himself or herself without consulting a
mate via phone.. These types are so wrapped up in taking
on the phone that they're unaware that we're not all
interested in their momentous decisions or choices. The
"Undecided Shopper", who decides that the space in front
of that Samurai Castle belongs to _him_ and him alone, so
that no one else can even get close to check out the
price or features. I'm sure you've seen them all :)
But we persevered.. Days are getting short to the
Holiday, for sure. And if you don't get out there now
chances are that Samurai Castle will be gone, as will that
Erector set with a 6Volt battery motor.. So, we stuck it
out. And it seems that even though everyone is bemoaning
the fact that they are broke, darn, this is Christmas -
and I guess as usual plastic still works well for people
:)
So after a good 5 hours of battling the public (this year
we decided to skip ordering online with it's often
extensive added shipping costs) we returned home a little
worse for the wear.. and I made some dinner.. nothing
fancy that night, but sausage and peppers always goes
over big here. The worst thing about a dinner like that
is you have to stand there and watch it.. somewhat at
least.. or if your stove is like mine, it will total the
vegetables and burn the sausage.. more time on your feet
I could have done without :)
Next, after dinner we decided to watch the episode of
Dexter (Serial killer, you can only love ) that we
missed on Sunday.. that felt good.. Just laying around
watching the idiot box :) :) But I always feel that show
is too short, and that evening was no different.. So
finally, at the end of the day Ron and I turned to a
mysql project that we hope will turn into something
useful.. brain energy required..
Next thing I know, it's approaching midnight and
something in me said, hey, probably time to check out
your system since you've been ignoring it all day.
Glancing at the system time, I noted it was just about
Midnight.. and my cron event for creating the weekly
nodelist hadn't run. 'Now what', I remember thinking..
darn linux upgrades! Sometimes they break more than they
fix.. So I forced the event, not realizing one important
detail.. it was TUESDAY not Thursday :)
So, the nodelist went out to the world, the web pages at
filegate.net were updated. I got an email from Bob
Seaborn the next morning.. "What's up??".. I remember
saying to myself "expletive-deleted" Geez.. guess I
jumped the gun on that one .
Solutions:
Sadly because the nodelist went out after Tuesday, most
systems probably processed it unless your system keys
the nodelist update to the day of the week, namely
Thursday/Friday. If your system did apply nodelist.350,
you'll have to back your system up to nodelist.343 so
that tonight's Nodelist can be applied correctly.
If you don't have nodelist.343 on your system somewhere,
you can pick it up here.
Freq NODELIST for nodelist.z43 (zip archive) or NODEDIFF
for nodediff.a43
Via Binkp:
filegate.net:24554 (standard port)
Freqs don't seem to work on my bbbs Binkp on port 24555.
Via Modem:
File request at 1:261/38, 607-655-5652.
Needless to say, the web pages at filegate.net have also
been updated to remove the early NODELIST.Z50 and
NODEDIFF.A50.

INFO:
Fidogazette is published by Janis Kracht, Editor, with the help of
Richard Webb 1:116/901 (Old School ToolBox), and Sean Dennis 1:18/200
(The Slightly Crusty Sysop). If you have an idea for a column or a
series of articles, please contact me :)
New!
MailingList subsriptions via
www.filegate.net // lists / ?p=subscribe
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 sparcity 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: 607-655-5652
1:261/100 filegate.net port 24555 via binkp or telnet mailer
(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).
Standard binkp port only supports BinkP (24554).
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!
