CURE FOR SLOW RESPONSE TIME Thanks to our online Unix Wizards, we have installed a new system that should totally eliminate all Picospan slowdowns. If the WELL seems to be acting sluggish, get down on all fours and lick your computer. That ought to fix things up. If the slowdown effect lingers, call me here at the Well office. The phones aren't working too well these days, so be sure to shout your message as loudly as possible.

BAD PROGRAMMERS In a suprise move, the Supreme Court announced today that from now on, it will be illegal for programmers to ""peek" and "poke". According to the majority opinion, we "can't have that going on in America".
IBM produces state-of-the-art computers. Pushing technology to its limits.
A new oil paint jet printer was unveiled at CCAC this week. "Wow, now computers can make real art," said a local critic who wishes to remain anonymous.
Will your software run on your new IBM clone? If not, Bad Information suggests the following procedure: Put the disk that won't work in the middle of a round table. If you are a man, put on a blue suit and conservative tie. If you are a woman, put on an apron. Put a lighted blue candle in the disk's hole. Run around the table 15 times , eating a frozen pepporoni pizza. Note: you have to run very fast. It won't work if you run slowly.
Computers make everything easy.
