No, just remove all licensing for them. A doctor has to decide in seconds 
what to do. What is the hurry with writing words on paper?

They spend $100,000 or more for a 3 year course most agree teaches them 
nothing but makes the colleges rich. Then they have to spend more money to 
pass the bar exams.

They learn by doing, so an apprenticeship system would work much better. A 
few states still allow you to challenge the exam with no school - why not 
all?

Unfortunately, I lost my entire Rainbow and Hot CoCo collection a few years back in a hurricane, and I really
can't afford to build it up again.

Re: Amazing!

Lawyers are a self-perpetuating evil - we need lawyers to defend
ourselves against lawyers.  They like to use obfuscating language to
conceal their real intent.  Also they like to use Latin phrases to
describe legal actions.  How many of us are familiar enough with Latin
to understand set cases?  Here in Canada there was supposed to be
legislation passed to make legalese into proper English (and French)
so that the average person could understand what was going on.  It
doesn't seem to be happening (quel surprise).  Luckily for me I was
raised Catholic when everything was still in Latin and so I understand
most.  A bit of French also helps.  I don't know if you guys in the
U.S. have "voir dire" but you better bring your lawyer ( and then
dispose of him/her).

Re: Question about Domain Names & Registration

HTML is simply mark-up, it's not a programming language in any real
sense.  All presentation to browsers is HTML, for the most part; other
languages can be run server side, but they generate HTML.  There are
exceptions for embedded items, e.g., Java apps and Flash, and there is
provision for simple client-side crap a la Javascript.  But they are
encapsulated in HTML.

Not entirely correct.  There are many registries as well as registrars.
E.g., the registry for .org is run by an entirely different organization
(PIR) than .net and .com (Verisign).

It is further complicated by the fact that registrars will typically
partner with other sellers who will rebrand.  But only registrars are
given access to registry APIs.

And how do I know all this?  I used to manage the network engineering
group for Register.com, years ago, when they were a much bigger player.
(They still handle at least 10% of the world's DNS traffic.)  So I am
all too familiar with the vicissitudes of DNS and domain registration..

Of course we do!  We have juries like everyone else, the Constitution
guarantees it.. but come to think of it, the Constitution also
guarantees against unreasonable searches, and our right to bear arms,
and due process, habeas corpus .... hmm, but the PATRIOT Act and other
nonsense these days don't pay any attention to that.

Funny how the folks in middle America are all pissed off and ready to
hand over their rights in an attempt to ward off terrorism, all because
of this World Trade Center thing.  Meanwhile those of us in New York
City (we were the ones violated, folks, and we still have a gaping hole
in the ground and people with debilitating respiratory ailments as a
result of that whole plane thing) are appalled at what the government is
getting away with under the guise of protecting freedom.  It's very
Orwellian - give up our freedoms to protect freedom.  Patrick Henry is
rolling over in his grave.  Disgusting.

Oh my, I haven't even had anything to drink.  Don't mind me.

And by the way, French isn't ALL that useful.  If you're using your
French to discern the meaning of "voir dire," you've probably got it
wrong ... At the least "voir" part.. ;)

A bientot,
C.

Oh it teaches them alright, to ignore anything that resembles common sense 
that is.  That is why I like my solution better, it has a small chance of 
being permanent.

Good question...  One I don't have a ready answer for.

Updated Download Archives

Every couple of weeks I will be adding more to the archives so it will be an ongoing project. Right Now I have 4
more years of magazines to get uploaded and archive updates as software and documents continue to get sent
to me.

If folks have anything they want added to the archives contact me off list so I can get it from you and then I
will host it and post in future updates. Anyone sending me anything remains anonymous. Its just me
organizing whats out there hosting and posting it for the coco community.

I am doing this because I care about preserving all this unique information and I promise to keep all direct
links to the archives postings off the e-mail list. I would ask those that get the links from me respect this
policy and do not post links to the e-mail list. 

Thank you and I hope folks are enjoying the archives so far.
