I really don't know why i should do this except that there is no justice in this mortal world; those who are right not only have to pay their own way, but that of those who are wrong, too (e.g. it costs more to keep Charlie Manson in free room and board than i make each year). It would seem to me that anyone who knows enough to get on the list at all, should be able to get the correct information the same way that i did. Nevertheless, here it is, quoted from the info-atari mail archives... Mail-From: G.ABRAMS created at 28-Jan-86 19:09:36 Date: Tue 28 Jan 86 19:09:36-PST Subject: Announcing INFO-ATARI8 and INFO-ATARI16 Direct contact with INFO-ATARI@SU-SCORE will change as follows: Two new lists have been created INFO-ATARI8 and INFO-ATARI16. They are both copies of the original INFO-ATARI. Please send a message to INFO-ATARI-REQUEST@SU-SCORE for additions and removals from either list. Presently, INFO-ATARI will point to INFO-ATARI8; eventually it will be removed. There is a mirror between ARPANET/DDN mail as described above and the Usenet news group net.micro.atari. We are working on getting it replaced by net.micro.atari8 and net.micro.atari16. If there are similar mirrors to other bulletin boards and information systems, their administrators should send mail at once so they can continue to receive messages. ++FLAME ON++ The question is: have you even *TRIED* using net.micro.atari16? ++FLAME OFF++ der "...of course my opinion differs from 'most everyone else! If it were the same, i'd probably have to change it, lest i remain in error." -------
