| Monday Feb 14, 2000 | R.U. Sirius has formed a new political party called The Revolution®, which he says "combines the best of the Libertarians and St.
Ralph". You can read a lengthy explanation of their
origins and philosophy, or a
summary of their platform, but I might vote for them
just becuase I like their slogan:
Victory Over Horseshit!

is nice, but who wants to pay
hundreds of
dollars to be able to write and manipulate PDF files?
Check out Planet PDF or the
PDF Zone, where
you can find advice, information and tools for working with PDF,
including a (mostly) free ANSI C library
of functions that allows you to read and write PDF files.

| Friday Feb 11, 2000 | The PSI-bernetics company sells "psychotronic, radionic and psionic devices" that you wear on various body parts to amplify psi frequencies. Were I to be actually in the market for such objects, however, I might find the fact that their catalog of Basic Devices doesn't even have photographs of the devices, but only poorly-done line drawings, to be a possible sign that they might not even have any actual inventory...And this warranty doesn't help inspire my confidence either; how would you measure "regular usage" of a psionic device? to Wearables by monde |

They're funded entirely by volunteers paying for the intensive training required before going on the phones. Call them up and ask a question (but don't ask one of these). to Sex by arkuat |
