        CS184?  CS150?  etc...       -- mikeym

5/6     If you'd like to be on the new CSUA racquetball mailing list,

5/6     Only 8 days till Dr. Who returns!!!
        \_ Seen the promo?  Dunno.. the Dr kissing one of his companions?
           Its just...wrong -dbushong
         \_ Hey, it's the '90s, man.  If Dr. Who had his way,
          he'd probably clone and then fuck himself. --pcjr
            \_ yes folks he really is this twinkish --pld
        \_ Who is Dr. Who?
        \_ I've been holed up in a lab for altogether too long...
           Who's broadcastiong it locally?
           \_ 5/14 on Fox.  Forgot the time.
        \_ nice promo for it in Starlog. Also check out the Web page
        \_ dis new doctor be lookin too mucha like Tom Baker.

5/6     Are there publically available scanners with OCR software?  I have
        heard that the one on the 5th floor of Soda is no longer public.
        -dpetrou
        \_ The scanner in the Wheeler lab *might* have OCR..  -dbushong
        \_ Both the Wheeler and Life Sciences MFs have scanners and OCR
           software.

5/6     As Voltron's legend grew, peace grew across the galaxy.
        \_ Voltron REWLZZZZ!!!!
           \_ Agreed. But why does Voltron only pull out his sword when
              he's getting the crap beaten outta him? I guess it would
              make for a very short show if he used it initially.
         \_Actually, they talk about that in the show.  The
           more powerful abilities of Voltron (combining up,
           the sword, and so forth) use up a lot of nuclear
           energy, so they're last-ditch powers. -thepro
        \_ LASER SWORD!!!  Yeah, I keep on wondering why they wait till
         so long before they use the sword.
        \_ Has Voltron returned to TV land again? If so where and when?
             \_ USA has been showing it for years.
        \_ Voltron is a Wuss.  _Star Blazers_ R0CKS.  you kiddies are
            probably too young to remeber that truely g00d show though.
             -crebbs
          \_ I used to watch it on ch. 36 all the time.  I can almost remember
             the theme song.
          \_ it was originally called Spacecruiser Yamato -- the movie was gr8
              \_ Try Gunbuster. Much better. Has got both romance and things
           going boom.
           \_ And large breastisis.
         \_ jiggling "breastisis" at that
        \_ Here he comes.. here comes speed racer..
           \_ Maha gogo maha gogo maha gogogo! (for those in the know)
