The BB (as I abbr. it) is mainly used for announcements from a "character" to the group, but just send me stuff if you're worried about what might be "proper". Additions, comments, corrections, etc. are MORE than welcome.] NEW THIS WEEK: Posted: 9/12/92 By: Bit & Byte (Mike Bavister, bj689@cleveland.freenet.edu) Content: --- POSTMASTER GENERAL VACANCY WITHDRAWN --- Due to a lack of applicants, the position of Post-Master General for Generica has remained vacant for well over a month. The truly amazing thing is that NO ONE HAS NOTICED. The post office has run quite smoothly without a PMG (mostly due to a seasonal lack of mail). Ergo, the vacancy has been withdrawn. If in the future the city of Generica has need for a PMG, I will come out of retirement to help out. The Generican Post Office would also like to announce that we have two new mail-handlers: Bit & Byte, the 1Meg twins. They have just completed the exhaustive 30 minute training session, and are now working in the receiving department. In just one day they have set a new record for accurately sorting mail: 63% -- Bilbo "MailBag" Baggins (af140@yfn.ysu.edu) Bit & Byte (bj689@cleveland.freenet.edu) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- OTHER ACTIVE NOTES THIS WEEK: Posted: Unknown By: Imports, Exports an Arms (Jeremy Nelson, gujn@uniwa.edu.ca) Content: WE apologise for any time distortions in the local area, however, due to testing of a device (Henceforward known as 'The Thing'), the local timestream has become dislocated. There is no danger, however some people may undergo slight disorientation. Some people may apparently find themselves in multiple locations at one time. We assure customers that this is not dangerous, and all time lines are in fact continuous, and will straighten themselves out in time. We recomment leaving early for any important appointments. Normal service will be restored tomorrow, yesterday, in three weeks' time and in three hundred and thirty years. All complaints should be forwarded to: Imports, Exports, and Arms. We thank you for your consideration. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Posted: 8/6 By: Moriarty (Aaron Humphrey, aaron@space.ualberta.ca) Content: I-------------------------------I I Moriarty Investigations, Inc.
