~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~< SANctuary >~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Presents... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Universal Source Listing Version 1.00 9/25/92 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One of the hardest things for new members inducted into the computer underground to do is finding places where they can buy ( "buy" - I use the term loosely) the phone equipment, software, chemicals, books, etc. that they need, to carry out whatever their minds might dream up. To aid these virgin youths in their plight I've compiled and expanded a list of sources that is the largest I've ever known to be made. Naturally there is always room for improvement so if there is anything that anyone out there cares to ad to the list just drop a note to one of SANctuary's distribution sites or anywhere else you might stumble upon me (you will of course get credit for the items you donate) so it can be added to forthcoming versions. - Havok Halcyon Listing includes: Catalogs of Books and Publishers Periodicals Books Other Assorted Books Catalogs of Products Papers and Documents Bibliography ------------------------------------ - Catalogs of Books and Publishers - ------------------------------------ Delta Press P.O.

Steve Wozniak is also active with this group I believe. Steve, the founder of Apple Computers, happened to get enough money to start his company by selling blue boxes door-to-door at UC Berkeley where he attended college. There are many other articles in legit magazines around (i.e. Esquire, Newsweek, Time, etc.) Just look up "Computer Crime" in the periodical encyclopaedias or whatever in the library. You will be surprised by the amount of stuff around. But keep in mind that they are "above" ground publications (or whatever you'd like to call them) so that is the type of material you will be reading. Time Magazine doesn't often publish articles on how to build a beige box. As for the magazines/journals/catalogs/et cetera I've listed, I didn't have the time to check out every single item listed cause frankly, I've got a life to live. So some of them may have gone down, or out or simply fallen of the face of the earth, others may have had rate and subscription price changes, while new ones may have popped up to replace the deceased ones. So if anyone has anything new to add, whether it be of new magazines popping their heads up, or to say that some magazine no longer publishes, or just to declare a rate change, it will all be greatly apreciated as well as acredited. -------------------------------- - SANctuary Distribution Sites - -------------------------------- CompuTron 813.885.5974 Ripco ][ 312.528.5020 Temple of the Dog 202.886.2283 ...places you can reach me at more easily (but they aren't sites) High Voltage 908.231.0252 The Works 617.861.8976 ----------- - Mailbag - ----------- SANctuary P.O.
