I'd like to chime in late here for support of the private news server idea. Using a threaded newsreader would make wading through the traffic on this list a breeze. It also makes maintaining a mailing list unnecessary as well stopping problems with vacation programs and invalid email addresses we've had in the past. Another reason I like the idea is that it obviates storing messages locally. On-access serving should also cut the I/O requirements drastically. Is there anyone on the list who doesn't have access to a newsreader (e.g. netscape or outlook express, or equivalent UNIX software?) The only other concern I would have is, as others have stated, that it makes it easier for spammers to harvest email addresses, although this is already quite possible by greping the current archives... Any further thoughts on this idea? - -- Mark Wilcutts ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 21 Nov 1999 08:38:00 -0800 From: rhuish@xxx.com Subject: Re: DIS - - ----- Original Message ----- From: scott christensen Subject: DIS >>MSD is adverising a DIS 4 cylinder unit in the foreign car mags >>(Sport Compact Car), ie sold in USA about foreign. >Might hook up with one of the guys from AU., there is a CD kit >available. >Down side is winding your own transformer. >Grumpy I bought one of those CD kits.(JayCar, AU)...looks good, has all the components and documentation. I'll give a performance report if I ever find someone to help me wind the xformer. :-( Bifilar windings? what's that, not anything a novice like me can do. Sure wish there was a ready made xformer available. They (Jaycar) also make a programable advance kit...Has two different programmable advance curves, but could be modified to work in "real" time...
