JAX, You probably didn't know this, but the BITNET address TWNCTU01 is in Taiwan. I doubt this gentleman has access to the San Jose telephone book and a call to directory assistance isn't very practical. If you must post rather than E-mail, you should at least give complete information. Quite often, the mail I forward from FIGI-L on BITNET is from overseas. There are many subscribers from Europe, South America, and the Far East. It would be helpful if the U.S. posters to comp.lang.forth and FIGI-L keep that in mind when they post to the net. P.S. I don't have the San Jose phonebook either, and would like to see the full address and phone number of Shaw Associates, too. If anyone has some *real* information about Chuck Moore's SHBOOM project, I'd love to hear it. > > (JAX's 600-byte signature deleted) JAX, your message was about 180 bytes long, implying a signal-to-noise ratio of 0.3. I have already taken to deleting your signature from the Digests I make from the net traffic -- they just eat up too much disk space. Since you are such a strong proponent of electronic communication, I would hope that you would consider a new signature that doesn't waste so much bandwidth and storage space. -- Lee Brotzman (FIGI-L Moderator) -- BITNET: ZMLEB@SCFVM Internet: zmleb@scfvm.gsfc.nasa.gov -- The government and my company don't know what I'm saying. -- Let's keep it that way.
