It is also a reference | O | | | for distribution systems wishing to contact the Moderator of | | | O | an echo, or wishing information about an echo's topics. | O | | | Elist entries include topic, distribution and contact | | | O | information. Procedural or internal echo operational matters | O | | | will normally be put in the rules file for an echo. | | | O | | O | | | The Echolist carries echo listings from various different | | | O | Networks and distribution systems, including all Zones of | O | | | Fidonet, and all such listings are welcomed.

Oftentimes, bass players get left out of regular guitar discussions. Other items like tablature and method books are rare and difficult to come by. This echo is THE place for bassists to hang out - Learn from fellow players, get practical advice, share knowledge, tablature, and to just have a funky, 'Low End' place to call home. Bassists like Geddy Lee and Les Claypool have brought the foundation of sound into the 'Limelight' with raucous melodic solos and ripping basslines. Whether you play 4, 5 or 6 string bass, Electric or Acoustic, Fretless or Fretted, picked or not picked, this is the place to be if you play bass!

The Callsign Server was originally seen in the Backboned echo AMATEUR_RADIO, but there was sufficient demand for this echo to be placed on the Backbone. The method of using the CALLSIGN echo is simple. A message is sent from a user to "Callsign Server", with the subject being "", in which case, if there is a match, the Server will produce the name, address, and type of class license that the operator possesses. At this time, the server will ignore all requests for name or ZIP-code searches. No other discussions will be allowed on the echo, except for questions on how to correctly operate the Callsign Server (which will be posted as a FAQ file, along with the rules of the echo). All callers are welcome, but please limit your requests to no more than two a week.

CP/M-80 is the most famous of the family, defining the Intel 8080 and Zilog Z-80 microcomputing standard of the late 1970s and into the early 1980s. Although overtaken on the desktop by MS-DOS and 16-bit operating systems, CP/M survives today both on new systems and on older machines. Many of the great names in the history of the microcomputer are associated with CP/M, including Altair, IMSAI, Processor Technology, NorthStar, Morrow Designs, Cromemco, Kaypro, Osborne, and too many others to list. Although no longer supported by Digital Research (now a part of Novell), CP/M is an active area of work for many programmers who continue to refine it, adapt it, and port it to additional platforms. CP/M originated many of fundamental concepts of microcomputer operating system architecture, such as the BIOS, and much of the early MS-DOS 1.x was directly inspired by or ported from CP/M. This echo serves as a focal point for those working with CP/M and its variants, including systems programmers, application programmers, and users looking for information.

The project is a substance use prevention education program designed to equip elementary and junior high school students with skills for resisting peer pressure to experiment with tobacco, drugs, and alcohol. This unique program uses uniformed law enforcement officers to teach a formal curriculum to students in a classroom setting. Project DARE gives special attention to fifth and sixth grades to prepare students for entry into junior high and high school, where they are most likely to encounter pressures to use drugs. DARE lessons focus on four major areas: *Providing accurate information about tobacco, alcohol, and drugs; *Teaching students decision-making skills and the development of self-esteem; *Showing students how to resist peer pressure; *Giving students ideas for alternatives to drug use and building their inter- personal and communications skills. In this conference, users can ask questions, have discussions, pass information, etc. as relates to the concepts and philosophies of DARE. It is strongly recommended that SysOps who carry this echo for their users conduct routine liaison with their local DARE Projects both in law enforcement and the school system.

This is not limited to echos seeking FidoNet Zone 1 "BackBone" status, but for anybody that wants to "advertise" their privately-distributed echo, as well as for increasing the readership of already- established BackBone echos. Advertising of echos should not be placed in ECHO_REQ more than once a week. It is also suggested that this echo be "read-only" to people other than moderators or SysOps. But, reasonable questions about echos are "on-topic".

Patterned after a campus Canterbury Club with a Sunday evening dinner tradition. Participants could be quasi-erudite, might show a respectful sense of humor, and demonstrate the humility of being less than 98% omniscient. The echo is open to all people, regardless of their religion, or the number of times they have been born. For those for whom reason and traditions often count as much as faith alone: "There's a difference between being baptised and brainwashed". A post-sophomoric Canterbury Club for all ages. Mostly for a US mainstream and traditional core of demographics and theology as spawned the US Declaration of Independence, and other such revolutionary things.. The 2000 year old trinity of the KJV is quite welcome, as are humor, burlesque, and parody - similar to the Jewish tradition of Purim. Has no teaching or conversion agenda: just good humor, good will, and maybe some random good works by serendipity and simply being considerate of others. A non-prophet group with a comfortable identity that can respect the beliefs of others. Collects and keeps a library of humor as well as addenda to the book, "These Also Believe". Certificates "of sufficient omniscience" awarded on a for-prophet basis to duly authorize pontificators to post outside this forum...the ONLY source of such certifications!
