Dear Reader, 

I know that the sudden and abrupt appearance of John "What's that on my
tush?" McMahon and Bruce "Couldn't you have focused before you pressed the
button" Miller on alt.sex.pictures has kept interested Info-Multinet
readers glued to their newsreaders to see when the next installment of
photos of networking folks would show up.  Although it is true that a
recent posting, bigdick.gif, was a photo of a prominent network columnist
from Digital Review, no other Multinet folks have been posted.

Alas, this is due to the negative feedback that we got from loyal readers
of alt.sex.pictures who wanted, nay, DEMANDED to know why (1) Jan and Bruce
were holding up a shirt, and not taking off shirts (2) Fast-Eddie did not
have a reflection of a nude Cheryl Tiegs in his glasses, and (3) why we
insisted on such a childish waste of bandwidth.  Frankly, as an aside,
being told by a reader of alt.sex.pictures that some posting was a waste of
bandwidth (a CHILDISH waste) strikes me as rather amusing.  

In any case, back to the subject at hand: more 16-color greyscale photos of
the dudes at TGV are now available via anonymous ftp from tgv.com.  Just cd
into the [.GIF] area, and you'll be able to see:

STUART_SIMON_PETER.GIF - Stuart Vance, Simon Hackett, and Peter de Vries
YOUNG_STUART.GIF - Stuart, but taken last year, at Christmas-time
WCHS_NETWORK_DUDE.GIF - Ken Adelman SAM.GIF - Sam Sjogren (sjogren@tgv.com)

Just as a certain un-named major medical systems software manufacturer
located in Tucson, Arizona, and employing Ehud Gavron has photographs of
each of its clients on a very long wall in their office, I think that this
is a welcome start to a similar space-wasting tradition by our very own
favorite network and file system sharing vendor.

Commentary, fan-mail, and suggestions for future subjects are always welcome.

Avoiding my dissertation for yet another 10 minute chunk,

jms
