4/20 You're invited to a Barbecue! Friday afternoon 12-6 on the 4th floor

4/17 If you ever have problems logging into soda, please check the
http://ucb.org.csua newsgroup for announcements of system problems
before mailing root. If there is a system problem, mailing
root just fills root's mail spool once it's fixed and too late
to do anything about it. This and other useful information
was in the FAQ file in your account when it was created.
Please read it and remember it - if you lost your copy, a
fresh one is always available in /usr/local/csua/FAQ.
Asking root questions that it answers is grounds for getting
really snide or obnoxious responses from root. |

4/25 I need a way for a child thread to know that a parent
has died. SIGCLD does the opposite, and I can't find the
signal that does what I want. I ultimately would like my
thread to die when my terminal is dead (ttyXX is unwrittable).
\_ Use the uncle thread to inform the child thread. Break the
news gently, though. |

4/25 I'm trying to get a cell phone in south bay area. Any suggestion
about which phone/what service should I get?
\_ Wait 3 months, if you can. Market should change a lot this
summer. Else, get short term committment. C1 PCS might be best
right now, assuming they are actually doing it. -jor |

4/24 "Remember, SCSI is not black magic. There are fundamental technical
reasons why it is necessary to sacrifice a goat at midnight in order
to get a SCSI device working properly." --galactus@htmlhelp.com
\_ maybe it's hard for people who don't understand the concept
of a unique scsi id for each device
\_ Um, speaking for those who actually have experienced SCSI
chains that work _only_ when hooked up "incorrectly", SCSI
voodoo *does* exist --dbushong |
