        \_ Does "Usenet newsgroups" mean all the newsgroups I can see when I
           run trn?  Are there newsgroups that are not Usenet newsgroups?
           Confused.
           \_ It means Usenet groups before the big re-org. talk.* and net.*
              stuff. It doesn't have my 1985 posts, but it does have some
              1986 stuff I wrote... It scares me.
        \_ Say, what newsgroup did the Ahm/Blojo incident happen in?
           \_ ucb.erotica.sensual, but I can't find the exact original posting,
              just aftermath signs such as:

4/02    We use Perforce at work for revision control. It seems to work okay.
        Lately, a lot of the newer developers are saying that Perforce
        sucks and we should switch to Mercurial or Git. I have done some
        searching on the Internet and some others have this opinion. Added
        advantage is that Mercurial and Git are free. However, there would
        be some work to switch for the sysadmins and the developers.

        \_ Soda doesn't have a real IPv6 address.  The IPv6 addresses you see
           in ifconfig are just link-local addresses; any IPv6-capable machine
           will autogenerate these, whether or not it's connected to an IPv6

Return to Google Groups 20 Year Usenet Timeline Google has fully integrated the past 20 years of Usenet archives into Google Groups, which now offers access to more than 800 million messages dating back to 1981. This is by far the most complete collection of Usenet articles ever assembled and a fascinating first-hand historical account. We compiled some especially memorable articles and threads in the timeline below.

A) UNLINK - the University's Network 'Lectronic Information service and "Neat Komputer" - is a set of computer systems dedicated to providing electronic communications and information retrieval resources to the campus community. A) UNLINK is not a general purpose computer account, word processing lab, programming environment, place to learn anything about computers, or a generally useful service not duplicating existing resources. The Internet Relay Chat system is electronic socialization, not electronic communication, so is not a supported service. Allowing users to communicate electronically does not necessarily include the ability to talk to multiple people at once, or with people on computers with incompatible talk programs. There is absolutely positively no useful textual information to be found on the World Wide Web, so lynx cannot be classified as an information retrieval program. Mosaic software is provided to retrieve graphical information on the WWW, although we have not yet figured out where you can run this program without having an account on a machine that probably already has mosaic or netscape installed. The GNU Zip utilities are not used for information retrieval or communications. They are only useful for information hoarding or unpacking gzip'ed files a user retrieves or receives - but using and storing information is not supported on UNLINK, only retrieving or communicating it. Information providing is not a form of electronic communication or information retrieval. Just because we support information retrieval doesn't mean we have to make it easy to use. A) It's our incredibly cool, very expensive new computer with gobs of RAM and disk space. Unfortunately we spent so much money on it we had to cut back on staff and now there's no one to run it. A) Distributing information about UNLINK is not a form of electronic communication or information retrieval, so is not supported. A) The OCF allows students to do almost anything on their computers. Our experts assure us that by not providing a small set list of users can do, they cause users to do unnecessary thinking and allow actual learning, experiences which have proven fatal for college students before. Of course, since UNLINK is staffed by paid trained professionals instead of random students, we have designed and provided a system free of these risky choices. The piddling detail that they still accept new users while we have not for 4 months now is irrelevant since anyone who did not get an account before we closed our doors obviously didn't need one. A) We service approximately 5,000 times as many students as the XCF does, but we don't let them play Xtrek 24 hours a day like they do. We also finish our programming projects, such as our wonderfully innovative "menu" system. A) Annually, on April 1 (the beginning of the UNLINK fiscal year, when we need to justify our consulting staff budget, since they don't do anything else useful the rest of the year). A) Any resemblence to any person, group, or system, whether living, dead, or stuck in eternal purgatory in line in Sproul Hall, is purely coincidental as this document describes a purely fictional computer system (pretty wild stuff, huh?

This essay is as much a personal statement as it is a wanted article. I learned a great deal about myself in the process of writing it. I do not expect to find this ideal true love anytime soon; Intimacy is what I miss the most about not having a lover. I miss feeling your sweet breath on me as you sleep peacefully. I am looking for a lover, friend, and long time companion. If you have access to the WWW you can read the HTML version of this article and see a picture of me. And I am currently working in the computer industry in Redwood City. Some people like to spend their money on cars, or clothes, or computers. My dream vacation is the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. Being able to see hundreds of meters into the translucent water is a mesmerizing experience. I do not smoke, do drugs, or hold extreme political and religious views. I do not want a woman who does any of those things either. I drink occasionally when I go out, but I never get drunk. As a matter of fact, I have never been drunk in my life. I like quiet environments such as bookstores and parks and museums and deserted beaches. I may be shy and introverted but I am also very open to new experiences and adventures. I do not sit in front of the television drinking beer and watching games all weekend. And I have NEVER been to a live ball game in my entire life. A man whose state of mind depends on whether or not his team wins a game cannot truly love a woman. The fact that I do not like professional sports does not mean that I do not like exercise. I enjoy biking, rollerblading, jogging and playing tennis. I used to work out at a gym hoping to build big muscles so that I can be more attractive to women. I have stopped trying to be Arnold Schwarznegger to impress women who are easily amused by big muscles. If you are looking for a big man, I am not right for you. Both shows combine great slapstick with even greater satire. I also enjoy reading Gary Larson's The Far Side and Bill Waterson's Calvin & Hobbes. Of course as a computer programmer, I also love Dilbert. She can be single or divorced between 21 and 35 years old and have no children. However, I am also open to seeing women of other races and ethnicities as long as she has an interest and an understanding of Asian cultures. But being constantly obsessed with your weight because you want to look like the covergirl on Vogue magazine is just as unhealthy. But I categorically will not date an obese woman with nose rings, green hair, and tattoos on her face. I am not passing any moral judgements on you if you are obese or have a nose ring. The most important aspect that I seek in a woman is her willingness to communicate with me. I am touched when a woman tells me stories about her friends and family, her hopes and worries, her fears and desires. Being able to talk to somebody means a great deal to me. I prefer a woman who has attained similar or higher education than me. I want to learn from her just as much as I want her to learn from me. I am just as passionate about particle physics as I am about Plato's Republic. I do not think that I can love someone until I know the person well enough. I must first be comfortable enough with a woman to tell her my thoughts and feelings. It is during this process of communication that I discover whether or not I love her. If I love her and want to make love to her, I will say that straight out. I will not lie to her about 'falling in love at first sight' just to get her to have sex with me. I do not think of sex as a self-satisfying act to be performed on the first date. I am not looking for a woman who likes the sexual or emotional excitement of sleeping with multiple men. If sexual gratification is the most important thing in a relationship for you, then I am not your man. Sharing your body with another person is one of the most intimate acts two people can do. It should never be thought of only as a means to physical satisfaction. The ecstasy that comes from sharing your body with a lover must be accompanied by the pleasure of sharing your mind also. Two lovers sharing their bodies and their minds and their souls. I love feeling close to you, both physically and mentally. I need a physically affectionate woman because I am very physically affectionate myself. I love cuddling because it makes me feel warm, secure, and loved. My teddy bear Snuggy is the official mascotte of Cuddle University. I do not have a picture of Snuggy, but here is an ASCII rendition of her: ___ Hi I'm Snuggy! It is a shame that I do not have time to read that newsgroup as often as I used to. I love her high voice, her round shoulders, and sensuous curves. I love her fine hair, her thin eyebrows, and her red lips. I love feeling that tender softness when I wrap my arms around her. Running my hands across her naked skin, caressing her silky softness, I become enraptured. They play mind games with you to find out things about you, to find out if you are sincere and honest. For example, I know many women who play "hard to get" to find out if the men pursuing them genuinely like them. I am sure that just as many men are guilty of similar behavior, but I am not concerned about men here. One male friend told me that dating is all about playing games. You lose one round if you are the first to open yourself up and tell your partner that you really like him or her. It is also a game of deception, of not telling the other what is on your mind and expect him or her to just know and understand. Older women appeal to me because they do not act in the way that I described above. They have outgrown these childish head games and youthful inhibitions. They know what they want in life and are comfortable with their sexuality. This is a very long article because I want to be as specific as possible about myself and about the woman that I seek. I understand perfectly that very few women fit my descriptions. I will not entertain any flame wars on this newsgroup nor will I give you the satisfaction of a reply should you send me hate email. I am not making a judgement on you personally if you do not fit my descriptions. I have received email from men and women telling me that they liked my ad and want to be friends or penpals. They wrote to me even though they are not looking for a lover or they do not fit my descriptions. Please write to me if you are interested in me and if you are looking to share who you are.

In a daring commando raid on the XCF's Cory hall Hive, the team succeeded in liberating the fabled CSUA bat from its incarceration at the hands of the evil XCF. Inside sources hint that several important pieces of strategic war materiel were also captured, along with the CSUA's armory. Furthermore, we have been informed that a large amount of operational supplies, necessary to sustain operations, were requisitioned by the brave squad. Lastly, it has been hinted that the XCF's mechanized counter-strike capabilities were affected to a large extent by the raid.
