I am really glad that this item finally got of the ground. Unfortunatly,
I was in Europe at the time, with no access whatsoever, but have returned
to make the most of this latest incarnation. Maybe my spelling will improve
as a result of the new come responsibility. Maybee KNot.

If you just wait it won't happen, MAKE it happen yourself i.e. enter
an item or something.

Do you think there is an unfounded paranoia over privacy in the dawning of AGE
of cybertechnology and telecommunications? In other words, do you think we
will live in a constant state of making traceable electronic footprints every
where we go? OR IS THIS SIMPLY fearing FEAR?

No I think it's quite easy for govt/coperations to tracks us
electrnicaly right now. Almost all financial transactions are already
tracked by
companies like TRW that will sell the information to anyone for a modest
fee as a credit rating.
If you add on the fact that the NSA has a super computer that can
break PGP in 10 minutes, and Clinton's "national id card" plan I think
people have a right to be very concerned about their privacy in the
"information age."

Unfortunately, I have not learned how to make a new item. Please forgive
me is if this post seems out of place.
I am a student at Marquette Univeristy who has just started a multi media
organization. One event that we have planned is a poetry reading via
vid phone, speaker phone, and the internet. We are also working on
trying to establish some professional contacts. Does anyone have any
advice or ideas for an event? We are eager to jump in and are trying to
find applications as well as learn the hardware. Any words will be
appreciated! Thanks.

What sort of internet connection do you have, is it slip T1? If so
you should be able to do a live video feed. I would love to paticipate in this
even as I am a poet, and have self published 3 books of poetry and am working
on a hypercard stack. There are probably other poets here in Ann Arbor who
would be into it as well. E-mail me with more info of what your plans are.

Nothing that fancy... we are still playing with
the telephone lines. Remember, we are college kids here:)
Unless we find a generous funding source then we must stick
with the utilities for now. Maybe next month.
As for joining us , please do! We are deep in the planning stage
but I would love to discuss details. If you are interested,
the Electronic Cafe International, in conjunction with
the Nuyorican Poets Cafe connects (lately they've been slacking)
to PMC MOO (telnet hero.village.virginia.edu 7777) on Friday evenings at 10:00
pm for poetry slams. If they don't show, there are always interested
individuals who will likely spew a few lines.
(myself included) If you don't mind my saying so, you seem monstrously
overqualified:) Sometimes the poetry is very raw. But some good stuff com
comes out.
Back to the student organization. I have made Apple contacts...
but hope that some other companies will be as receptive to us. We 're very
hungry right now.

Okay! I won't be there this weekend. I won't be near a computer.
But I will be there next weekend.
When you get on the MUD type @Who then find out who is in the
Virtual Poets Cafe. If someone is there, type @join <charactername>
My name on there is Novinha. Have fun!

I tried po-mo moo. It was OK except there were only a couple people there,

As a relative newbie I'm just getting into the 'net... as for cyberpunk which
I think is an integral part of postmodern culture, what do you
(everyone/anyone) feel about the way in which the genre has changed
contemporary culture?:help" ."
