Now I know my anonymous friend's intent, thanks for the source-
Unfortunately, anything I had that played vinyl is long gone (and I have a
bunch of albums I'd love to hear again!)
I do think its cute though-

The source is Flanders and Swan, a pair of Brits who were on
the entertainment circuit years ago. They specialized in animal
songs (Hippopotamus: Mud, Mud, Glorious Mud! Nothing quite like
it for cooling the blood, so come let us follow, down to the
hollow and there let us wallow, in glorious mud! ) I have their
old 33rpm around somewhere. If you still have a player :-)
and want to hear the rest, let me know and I can dig around
and bring it in to the next WLUG meeting.

Andy,
Would you mind if I cross posted this on discuss(a)blu.org since Robert
Zeigler should be a good speaker and maybe some people might be
interested.
See you at the meeting.

HI everyone,
The next meeting of the Worcester (MA, USA) Linux Users' Group will take place

Hall in Worcester, MA. Directions can be found on the WLUG website:
http://www.wlug.org
The speaker at this meeting will be Bob Ziegler. Bob is the author of "Linux
Firewalls", published by New Riders. Bob will address firewall related topics
including:

After the meeting, you are welcome to join us at the Boynton Restaurant for
pizza and beer.
I'm looking forward to seeing alot of people at this meeting.
See ya later,
Andy

Re: [Wlug] Volunteers needed!
by Andy Stewart
Hi all,
WOW! The response has been great! Here's what I've got for volunteers so far:
Critique the slides
-------------------
Scott Venier
Dean Deaver
Doug Waud
Tom Manders
Conduct Demos
-------------
Tim Keller
Doug Waud
Mark Komarinski
I was hoping we could get 1 or 2 more people to do demos. I suspect that 4
people is enough to sufficiently critique the slides.
The Delphi Developers group meeting takes place at:
Allaire Corporation
275 Grove Street
Newton, MA
Check out their website for directions:
http://www.discom.com/delphi/meeting/MeetingDirections.html
The meeting is scheduled to start at 7:00 PM so we should probably get there
early enough to setup, say 6:30 PM on Monday, April 23rd. I'd expect the
traffic in this area to be pretty heavy at that time of day due to rush hour.
I will find out more of the logistical information, such as, how much table
space do we have, how many outlets, etc. Also, would somebody be kind enough to
allow me to use their laptop for the presentation since I don't own a laptop?
I'll export the presentation to HTML if necessary, or if you have StarOffice
already installed, I'll use that. (Maybe its time I bought one instead of
lugging around my full tower...).
Later, and thanks!
Andy

Volunteers needed!
by Andy Stewart
HI gang,
I have been asked to be the guest speaker at the Delphi Developers Group meeting
in Newton, MA on Monday, April 23rd (http://www.discom.com/delphi). They are
interested in Linux due to the recent product announcement of Borland Kylix
(http://www.borland.com/kylix). These folks are a group of software developers
living in the Windows world.
I had planned to prepare a 45 - 60 minute talk, Q/A, and then demonstrate some
apps for them, such as:
StarOffice
Netscape
Developer tools and utilities
VmWare
LILO
Desktops - KDE, Gnome, enlightenment, etc.
Installation of Linux
The above list was suggested to me by their representative as a list of things
that would be interesting to their developers group.
I am seeking 2 or 3 people would like to volunteer to demo some of these tools
at the meeting, and who can provide support for the questions which I can't
answer. I'm looking for folks with systems or laptops that they are willing to
bring to this meeting for the demos.
I would also appreciate a volunteer or two who would be willing to critique my
presentation slides before the meeting. You would not need to actually attend
the meeting. I'd e-mail the slides to you and request your written feedback.
The Delphi group representative will also get a sneak preview.
If you are interested in either of these opportunities, please contact me this
week if at all possible.
Thanks in advance!
Andy

Re: [Wlug] REMINDER: Meeting on Wednesday, March 14th at 7 PM
by Jeremy
Would anyone be interested in seeing a wireless network in place?
I have an Apple Airport working great at home that I could sudo-demo at the
meeting...
I have the 3com AirConnect PC Card also working on my laptop, which shows how
to setup a PC card network adapter under linux as well.
The Airport is connected to an IDSL in my apt and pretty easy to configure..
They do have a WIN/MAC client to configure it (my laptop is win/linux dual
boot), but I also believe that they have a JAVA client (=linux) but I have not
tried using that one yet either.
Its about a $400 solution (base and PC CARD - kinda pricey for most college
bound) but wicked convient for the home laptop and multiple computers (i.e.
laptops and work stations)
The airport does takes the place of using a linux box as a router / gateway
though :-) It does NAT and a DHCP server - wicked simple and reliable.
Just shows another angle / solution. This is low priority so if there is not
enough time / interest no biggie...

REMINDER: Meeting on Wednesday, March 14th at 7 PM
by Andy Stewart
HI everyone,
This is a friendly reminder: the next WLUG meeting will be held on Wednesday,
March 14th at 7 PM in Kinnicutt Hall at WPI in Worcester, MA. Directions can be
found on the WLUG website:
http://www.wlug.org
WLUG members Doug Waud, Stephen Daukas, and Chuck Anderson have been working
together on the presentation for this meeting (at least that's the story I've
been given). They will be discussing their experiences with home networking.
Check out the WLUG website for a more detailed description of the focus of their
talk. I expect that this will be a good meeting for someone who might not have
setup a home network but is considering it.
After the presentation, if time allows, we'll open the floor for a general
question and answer session.
At the conclusion of the meeting, a group of us will head over to the Boynton
Restaurant for some pizza and beer.
As always, the meeting and the post-meeting festivities are open to anybody who
is interested in Linux. No secret handshake is required. :-)
See ya later,
Andy

Well, they're not the same thing, but psh is the perl shell (use perl for a
shell language) and esh is the lisp shell (easy shell)
