Grex Test Item 210: Weekly Scibble & Expurgate Test
Entered by saw on Sat Oct 17 01:31:55 UTC 1998:

This is a test of the PicoSpan scribble & expurgate system.  If this were
a real situation, we would scribble & expurgate all living matter on
Earth, followed by explicit instructions for surviors to evacuate.  Remember,
this is ONLY a test!

12 responses total.

This concludes the test of the PicoSpan scribble & expurgate system.  This
test was successful.  Join us again next week, same place, same time, same
channel, for another weekly test of the PicoSpan scribble & expurgate
system.  Thank you, please drive thru. :)

Very nice. But if you forget to test again next week, I'm going to post
your deleted response.  :)

LOL.  :)  I'll have to put it in my calendar now.  Too bad we can't run
cronjobs here, or we could have a weekly test every week. :)  Trust me,
I'm sure we could figure up a way to do it.. hehe.  So you can actually
access scribbled responses?  (I already forgot what mine was.)

They're stored in a publicly readable file somewhere. Can't
recall the path though.

/bbs/censored

To see the last 100 lines of the file:
   !tail -100 /bbs/censored

Cool.  I've seen that file in the /bbs directory, but never knew what it 
was, never tried reading it.  I'm at school right now, and they're 
showing Channel One on TV, don't you just LOVE Backtalk? :)  Oh yeah, 
tomorrow is test day again. :P

What is Channel One?

Are they still in said file after they have been expurgated and scribbled or
just if they are expurgated or scribbled?

#10 of 12 by mary on Fri Oct 23 01:54:25 1998:

Yes.

Channel One - a news show they show to us in school but I choose not to 
watch and instead to use Backtalk and conference on Grex. :)

Actually, you can't telnet off these computers.  Yes, we have Win95 and 
there *is* a telnet client, but I think the school system-wide firewall 
works wonders on your telnets. :(  So I'm stuck with Backtalk.

Oh, darn!  Forgot to run my test again!  I'll have to do another one 
when I get home where I can telnet, and thus scribble and expurgate. :)
