Remember Hiawatha Bray? Don't recall which incident occurred where, on which BBS, but in one the administrator disregarded Tennyson and decided he was a lady and deserved an abject apology cuz someone had flamed him with obscenities. In another, the administrator (was it here?) decided it was a phony name and wanted to zap him. And then there is our constant old friend here: Virendra Dhupela (did I spell it right?). With the new immigration, especially from the Orient, we who descend from the European continent may have a distance to go to become as cosmopolitan in outlook as the people our ancestors left behind. ==BTW, reminds me of a friend who is sort of a neighbor of yours. (Well, LaPorte ain't that far from Hammond.) A berry farmer descended from many generations of Episcopalians converts to Judaism while in college, later marries a nice Jewish girl, adopts two Menomonee Indian girls and raises them in the Jewish tradition.

Msg 43320 is 24 line(s) on 03/06/90 from JERRY OLSEN to ALL re: DEVELOPERS' CALCULATOR Recently I've been developing a 17-function programming calculator program for DOS. I'm now looking for a few beta testers. (Given the lack of s manual at this stage-all help is currently limited to context-sensitive, run-time helps screens-only reasonably experienced software developers probably should participate.) A couple of modest incentives: Any user whose substantive input results in product enhancement will receive a complimentary registration when the product is released. As tester input will heavily influence the final product, input probably will result in an ideal tool for own needs. A few of the available features: 1) Values may be entered in any of several radices, with results displayed in all of them. 2) Values also may be entered in "character" mode, resulting in display in all radices based upon the ASCII or extended scan code for pressed keys (user switchable). 3) Extensive arithmetic and bitwise manipulation. 4) Calculations may progressively act on results of prior operations or begin anew. 5) Results may be based upon 8-bit, 16-bit or 32-bit values, with results of prior calculations converted on the fly between these storage classes as desired for futher manipulation. 6) All above features may be freely mixed at any time. 7) 16-level "undo" stack of prior calculations. 8) Runs as a TSR or stand-alone application.

Msg 43322 is 16 line(s) on 03/06/90 from JERRY OLSEN to ALL re: DISK LABEL PRINTING I work for a media arts firm in Chicago's centrally located Printers Row which specializes in software development and graphic design. We offer professionally designed and printed disk labels at an exceptionally low price by ganging print for several clients in a single run. If you market software, or are associated with a business or organization needing its own labels, call us voice at 312-939-3300. Base price is $20 for the first hundred labels in any standard color, $10 for each additional hundred. Your logo can be added for a one-time $10 charge. Multicolor labels: Add $15 per 500 labels or fraction thereof for each additional color. Our next press run is in the next couple of days, but there currently is space available for 3 additional clients. The next run is scheduled for a couple of weeks thereafter. Our goal, subject to press costs, is to hold the above prices for the forseeable future, but we can only guarantee rates for the currently-schedule run. Other design and printing services available. dup. chars. >Function:?
