Apparently there was an article in the San Jose Mercury News for Sunday July 2, 1989 titled THE TEN COMMANDMENTS OF PERSONAL COMPUTING, by Paul Andrews. Well, there have been a lot of comments on a few of the "commandments". Please note that not all of the readers in this newsgroup receive that paper - some of us have been deprived of the "raw material". It would be nice if local items that have wide interest would be posted in their entirety (sp?), and then commented on. If I'm blowing smoke, I'm sorry. If somebody did post it, and it expired from my site, all the above is taken back. I'd like a copy, if somebody has it on file, please e-mail.

One can post a small part of a published article -- that's called "fair use" -- but typing in articles from copyrighted media wholesale is illegal, as well as possibly impolite to the original author. Yes, I realize that a lot of people do it. That Doesn't Make It Right, You Know. -- "Inanna spoke: My vulva, the horn, the Boat of Heaven, is full of eagerness like the young moon.
