[This posting void where prohibited by law]
From time to time, some of you fine folks have emailed me messages
asking for permission to repost my AmigaTrek stuff or publish it in
your newsletters, etc. And I've usually refused giving RoboCity News
first crack at any real publishing by request of the editors. Well,
RoboCity is being taken over by some "professional" publishing firm so
the status of my stuff will be in limbo for a while. Therefore feel free
do what you will, since I want to see it circulated. Of course there
are a few minor conditions:
1: Make sure to give me proper credit, including a note
that I am the author of Galileo, the neatest astronomy
program in this and parallel universes.
2: Inform me ahead of time where it is going so I can keep track
of it myself (for instance, I know that one episode has been
posted to a Danish BBS, and another copy was sent to Moscow
last summer).
3: If it is to be printed in a newsletter, I ask that you send me
a copy, and that I be put on the mailing list.
(address is : 25215 La Loma Drive, Los Altos Hills, CA 94022.)
4: Please proof-read it to catch any spelling errors, etc.
5: Please eliminate any USENET specific remarks that won't be
understood by the average reader.
6: Do not add any gags of your own to the main body of the text.
If you do have any good or bad or down right hold-yer-nose-awful
puns, email them to me, and I'll try and include them in the
next adventure. Or if there is a joke specific to your
User's Group that would fit in, pass it by me first so I may
give it my blessing.
7: If someone else sees it and wants to reprint it themselves,
refer them to me.
"We thank you for your support. . ."
