FIDOGAZETTE Vol 10 No 11 Page 2 March 16 2016 ----------------------------------------------------------------- ================================================================ E D I T O R I A L ================================================================ If you've been reading echomail in Fido, and paid attention in the FIDO_SYSOP echo, you've no doubt notced the heavy traffic in that echo. I notice the counts of the echos every week in the echomail stats report I generate for this publication and it is just too funny to me that echo should for the last three weeks be at the top of the list. What a lark :) This normally quiet echo become almost as bad as the worst flame echos of yesteryear... except the traffic is mostly from those who would like to "take over the echo".. just for the good of us all, you understand (lol) The instigators of the worst of it? Insanely, it's Michiel van der Vlist, our 'fearless leader' of the FTSC.. Do you think he's taking on more than he can deal with right now? Sure looks that way. He, himself and him (kind of sick alliteration of "Me, Myself and I") decided that "THERE WILL BE AN ELECTION FOR MODERATOR" in the fido_sysop echo as I mentioned in the week before last's issue.. geez, we already have a duly elected moderator, Vince Coen. Michiel is backed up of course by Ward, Drummond and some few others.. and FEW is the word :) Well, eventually the traffic will die down, it always does. FIDOGAZETTE Vol 10 No 11 Page 3 March 16 2016 ----------------------------------------------------------------- ================================================================= H U M O R ================================================================= Thanks again to Dave Drum, one of my users on <<Prism! If my body was a car, this is the time I would be thinking about trading it in for a newer model. I've got bumps and dents and scratches in my finish and my paint job is getting a little dull... But that's not the worst of it. My headlights are out of focus, and it's especially hard to see things up close. My traction is not as graceful as it once was. I slip and slide and skid and bump into things even in the best of weather. My whitewalls are stained with varicose veins. It takes me hours to reach my maximum speed. My fuel rate burns inefficiently. But here's the worst of it. Almost every time I sneeze, cough or sputter, either My Radiator Leaks or My Exhaust Backfires!

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!
