[20:54] Yep, it was in my mailbox when I got home yesterday [20:54] <_Six_> Cool [20:54] not sure when it arrived, tho [20:54] <_Six_> Just wanted to make sure. [20:54] <_Six_> How's it look? [20:55] looked OK, but where's the answers to last month's puzzle? [20:56] <_Six_> Answers? That puzzle was way too simple! [20:56] OK, we'll wait to see how many other folks ask for the solution [20:57] <_Six_> Next month there's no puzzle, I'm gonna include something else like some stickers or something, I'll use that page for the answer keys for the puzzles. [20:57] stickers? [20:57] <_Six_> Yeah, I got the vinly cutter going again. [20:59] <_Six_> I figured instead of a puzzle every time I'd throw some stuff in there that people would like, stickers, fridge magnets, you know, that kind of stuff. [20:59] <_Six_> Maybe a disk of cool stuff one time. [20:59] <_Six_> Dunno. [20:59] magnets might be heavy thru the mail [20:59] ack, don't ship magnets and disk in the same package :/ [21:00] <_Six_> Well duh :p [21:00] <_Six_> I need to drum up some articles, too. [21:00] <_Six_> Esp for the BASIC section. [21:00] <_Six_> And I need some GEOS content, lots of the guys in the club are into that, no?

[21:04] BBL. [21:04] :-) [21:04] * JLawless (~jimbo@dialup-4.228.198.88.Dial1.Denver1.Level3.net) has left #c64friends [21:05] Noisy? in what way? [21:05] Car horns blaring... construction work... police sirens... thousands of people. [21:06] sounds like regular city life to me [21:06] Quiet on the beach close to the water, though. [21:06] Yup. [21:06] Except normal dress is swimwear. [21:06] And surfboards. [21:06] Ya, that's usually the way in the FL Keys [21:07] * ^Garth^ (garth@c220-239-150-63.eburwd1.vic.optusnet.com.au) has joined #c64friends [21:07] HI, Garth. [21:07] snorkels and scuba gear instead of surfboards tho [21:07] Howdy ^Garth^ [21:07] <^Garth^> Hi Robert [21:07] <^Garth^> And Sog [21:07] <^Garth^> snog [21:07] Nah, haven't seen that here in Waikiki. You have to go outside of this area for the good snorkeling and scuba. [21:07] Did not use much laundry when I was in the Keys, since I was in a bathing suit most of the time [21:08] lol [21:08] lol [21:08] Some days it was all day on the dive boat [21:08] Hey, this Internet cafe is not showing laughing-out-loud. [21:09] why not? :( [21:09] Just a few miles toward Diamond Head, I saw lots of people snorkeling. [21:09] I don't know, Snog. [21:09] we won't try to laugh too much then :) [21:10] I was on the Atlantis submarine this morning. Most excellent! [21:10] hopefully your net connection is better than the last two hotels I visited [21:10] Saw lots of fish, the artificial reefs, and the sunken ships and airplanes. [21:11] This Internet cafe is not part of a hotel... just an independent. [21:11] $5 for one hour. [21:11] wow, big time bucks! [21:11] My budget hotel, the Royal Grove, is $6 for one hour. [21:12] ya, I contemplated going elsewhere last week, but was too tired to leave the hotel [21:13] This week, at the hotel I was visiting, a tornado was in the general area, power was out a good while [21:13] plus localized flooding made travel a bit difficult [21:13] Probably saw the national weather about Norwalk OH [21:13] This morning was the submarine (we went down 100 feet), then I took a nap, woke up, did postcards, and now I'm here before going off to eat at a Hawaiian barbecue restaurant and attending church services. [21:13] was in that storm path too [21:14] * dragosc4 (~fred@c-69-137-243-215.hsd1.in.comcast.net) has joined #c64friends [21:14] Howdy dragosc4 [21:14] Nope, no weather reports around here except for the islands. [21:14] heyaz [21:14] Hi, Mark. [21:14] Did you get your newsletter, Dragos? [21:14] Common weather report... the height of the waves. :-) [21:15] what? no tide report? [21:15] No, no tide report. [21:16] interesting [21:16] Waves are more important, I guess. [21:16] maybe [21:17] I know when I was in the Keys, I'd hear the fishing report/tide report more than the weather report [21:17] Those surfers need their information. :-) [21:17] * welfcheck (The_Edge@cpe-24-59-148-104.twcny.res.rr.com) has joined #c64friends [21:17] * welfcheck (The_Edge@cpe-24-59-148-104.twcny.res.rr.com) has left #c64friends [21:17] * RaYzor (The_Edge@cpe-24-59-148-104.twcny.res.rr.com) has joined #c64friends [21:17] * ChanServ sets mode: +o RaYzor [21:17] ahhh [21:17] Howdy RaYzor [21:17] hello friends [21:17] Hi, Ray.

[21:17] hehe [21:18] what surprises does this chat hold for tonite?!?! [21:18] I'll soon need welfare if I don't lay off the tours. ;-) [21:18] * Snogpitch figured RobertB had a stash of gold and silver bars stashed somewhere [21:18] Surprises? Joe Fenn wants to give me two Indus GT drives. [21:19] * RaYzor thought same as Snog [21:19] * Caricon (~Caricon@wrls-12-37-119-254.paulding.oh.speednet.net) has joined #c64friends [21:19] Nah, Snog, just the coin collection. :-) [21:19] time for a trip? sliver off a piece of gold [21:19] Howdy Caricon [21:19] Hi.. what about coins? [21:19] Hi, Caricon. [21:19] hi all [21:19] gold bars everywhere in his Star Trek-themed vault ... thats what RobertB has [21:19] RobertB, are you going to be able to take much stuff on your return trip? [21:20] He walks into the massive vault and says "Computer, chip off $4000 USD" [21:20] and then he goes to a hopper and teleports to wherever Jeri Elsworth is [21:20] Ay, I was walking around the Int'l Market last night, thinking if only the items were Star Trek with a Hawaiian theme. Then I would buy! [21:20] ya, RaYzor, couldn't do that to a Star Wars collection :) [21:21] No, sadly my collection is only occasionally updated, like for instance my Darth Maul dual blade saber :( [21:21] No, Snog. Hawaiian Air limits my suitcases to 50 pounds each for check-in. [21:21] and I didnt even get a Good Deal [21:21] hmmm, wonder how much it would cost to ship? [21:21] My S.T. collection gets a big update at the end of the year. [21:22] I missed not having LUCKI Expo this year Snog :( [21:22] Should have come to C=4 then RaYzor [21:22] It was not possible [21:22] we are mixing a CD this month [21:22] its been 'fun' I guess hehehe [21:22] What was Jason Compton talking about on the news groups? Maybe having somethng around Chicago. Not really a show, but just a get-together? [21:22] So how does your guitar sound .... ummm good? [21:23] Yes, Caricon. [21:23] Not sure what Jason has in mind...you'll have to ask him [21:23] * RobertB drinking Aloha Maid iced tea. [21:23] I just got ho me from a wedding.. how fun... [21:24] You guys need to do a show in Communist New York .. home of high taxes and the continual increasing of government telling you what to do [21:24] it will be fun [21:24] soon there will be free housing if we all harvest corn or something ,,, and lines for TP [21:24] Well, someone would have to organize it in N.Y. [21:24] why not organize one, RaYzor? [21:24] N oone would come [21:24] NY has a horrid reputation [21:24] for good reason [21:25] it wouldn't have to be in the city [21:25] I mean all of NY is like this [21:25] not just the City of Hell that we pay taxes to and give power to to keep alive [21:25] and water [21:25] and everything. that place produces Yuppies, criminals and pollution and thats about it [21:26] How about having it in Rochester? [21:26] that would work [21:26] that town has an airport? [21:26] ya [21:27] there ya go, my part of the planning is done :) [21:27] yes i got newsletter [21:27] * LordRonin (~lordronin@vcsweb.com) has joined #c64friends [21:27] looks nice, again :) [21:27] Howdy LordRonin [21:27] LordRonin [21:27] Hi, Dave M.

[21:28] LordRonin, Charles wanted to know how much to send, including shipping charges? [21:28] Cheque? For what? [21:28] yes give me money it is the only way [21:28] Snogpihc: got a nice letter from Charles. Should be in town to post the package to him on friday the 30th.... Oh I was under the impression that he wanted it COD [21:28] dungeon module s3: expedition to the barrier peaks [21:29] ya, he said COD, unless IF you couldn't swing that [21:29] Robert: Post Print 3.5 and Wave 128. As we are setting up here for the C= again, either on an experimental HD or the Zip drive. That is what I am missing. [21:29] guess since no shows coming up, will save up for the Canada one. [21:29] I'll see him tommorrow, and let him know it's going to arrive after the 30th [21:29] Ah, thanks for reminding me, LR. [21:30] dracosc4: but the rewrite in the B sereis was a travesty. [21:30] CommVEx is July 29-30. [21:30] B series [21:30] what the hell was that about? sold about 5 machines [21:30] not too impressive [21:30] I'm busy in July. Setting down a new home next door. [21:30] Sngopitch: He seems very pleased with the crude attempts that I sent him. I'll be in town on the 30th and send it Postal to him COD. [21:30] AmiWest Show is in October. [21:30] which re-write [21:30] That's the other side of the country for me. [21:31] Vintage Computer Festival is in November. [21:31] RaYzor: see how I sepll when Sober [21:31] Where is AmiWest?

[21:32] * al (~Dangerous@c-24-8-173-30.hsd1.co.comcast.net) Quit [21:32] * AlanR (Diplo@dialup-4.224.204.85.Dial1.Cincinnati1.Level3.net) has joined #c64friends [21:32] AlanR [21:32] Howdy AlanR [21:32] finally!! [21:32] Hey peoples. [21:33] dracosc4: after E.G.G. was forced out. They made $15 adventure books. B series was one of the rewrites and so was S and A the slave lords. [21:33] Hoi AlanR [21:33] Hi, Alan. [21:33] Howdy, howdy [21:33] I wouldn't mind going to St. Louis or something. That's about 6 hour drive. [21:33] 128d [21:33] Ah, no more Midwest Amiga Classic in St. Louis. [21:33] The 2nd annual Vintage Computer Festival is being held Saturday, July 15, at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana. [21:34] YESSSSSSSS [21:34] Oh. we went to the last one in Indiana... [21:34] That's VCF Midwest, Snog. [21:34] Axl Rose is from there [21:34] WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE [21:34] woooooooooo [21:34] I read that Axl was a child molester [21:34] The first one last year didn't impress me much...probably won't go this year [21:35] The one in Indiana was really retro computer.. Way before the C64 stuff. [21:35] dracosc4: yeah that was what I was on all day doing a story for the goup [21:35] Lets bring back MF phone systems and 4A switches [21:35] Snog, each VCF is dependent on what the exhibitors bring. [21:35] RaYzor: I still use my C= rotary phone. [21:36] Yeah, the C= phone! [21:36] yes [21:36] BRING BACK ROTARY [21:36] Now to open it up and figure out how to make the speaker thing work. [21:36] By the time we were ready to leave at the last show, the Amiga guy has just got there was beginning to set up. [21:36] RayZor: can't bring back rotary. All I own are rotary phones. [21:37] Speaker? Do you mean the receiver, LR? Is yours not working? [21:37] I cannot use them on Vonage cause it does not respond to dial pulse :( [21:37] Our phone line where I live has only been digital for 3-4 years now. [21:37] Before you could use touch tone but still had to wait for the beeps to catch up. [21:37] Robert: no it is listed as a speaker phone. I take that to mean it will work with an external speaker system. Just don't know how to implement that one yet. [21:37] where are all the old step offices and stuff? I want to hear weird clicks and beeps [21:38] Ray, you have to find one of the Radio Shack thingys they sold a few years ago that imitated dial tones. Just hold it up to the receiver. [21:38] RayZor: Vonage is also drenn for trying to call a BBS. Had one guy try and it was horrible. [21:38] I have a minimal Verizon line as well [21:38] just in case Vonage goes down [21:38] true land line [21:38] * KilrPilr (~commodore@S0106000f3d37d535.ca.shawcable.net) has joined #c64friends [21:38] I just watched a 30 minute thing on phone hackers and stuff. Captian Crunch and Kevin. [21:38] Heh [21:38] Hi, Leo. [21:38] hi guys [21:38] I met Capn Crunch [21:38] that dude is legit freaked out [21:38] Robert, the C64 modem should be able to do the dial tones just fine :) [21:38] Hoi KilrPilr [21:38] Howdy KilrPilr [21:39] There's new video at http://www.trekweb.com that shows how ST:TOS would have been like with new digital effects. [21:39] the Capn did a LOT of LSD and **** [21:39] Evening programs! [21:39] Right, Snog! Why didn't I think of that? [21:39] Hi, Antares. [21:40] Vented my spleen with a word processor. [21:40] IIRC the older ones had a pulse and tone switch on the modem. [21:40] How's Hawii Mr. Bernardo, sir? [21:40] Get to the emergency room quick, Antares! ;-)\ [21:40] VICMODEM!!! (1) dial # (2) wait for carrier tone (3) QUICK PLUG THE HANDSET CORD INTO THE MODEM! FAST [21:40] Hope it wasn't GeoWrite [21:40] (4) repeat 1 - 3 [21:41] High of 88 with 50 per cent humidity, Antares. [21:41] I use Abiword. [21:41] We just had a thundershower here. [21:41] Doesn't sound like a C= thing. I was with GeoWrite today for about 6 hours. [21:41] LR! [21:41] Morning is best followed by anytime after 6 or 7 p.m.. [21:42] I formatted a few geoWrite disks today ;) [21:42] Robert: Horrible thing here today almsot 90 and the sky is an alien colour, blue. [21:42] wow, it was 82 here with 49 per cent humidty! [21:42] I dont use linux and my 2001 PET is still busted :( [21:42] * antares51 prefers Jane. [21:42] Hey, Hawaiian weather! But did you have the trade winds at 5-15 miles per hour. [21:42] Only good thing is that the skirts got a lot shorter around here [21:42] NY has 85 degrees and 80+ % humidity [21:43] always in summer [21:43] LR, lots of short skirts here in Hawaii. [21:43] <_Six_> hehe vicmodem [21:43] in winter its -30 and 1% humidity [21:43] NY soon to have mucho rain! [21:43] Moloch: I formatted a couple dozen the other month. Way too many dupes. [21:43] Antares, mucha lluvia (a lot of rain). [21:44] Robert: Beginning to remind me of the 60s from your description. [21:44] :-) [21:44] Too much for the Eastern folks! [21:44] Uh, not really, LR. Far shorter... and lots of bikinis, too. [21:44] 16 tomatoes on my plants so far. [21:44] anatres51: Trade you NY rain for Astoria Ore rain. We have a lot to share. [21:44] the East gets all the nice built up moisture and about the time it gets to NY it dumps all over us. overcast for WEEKS on end. Humid. Very cold or very hot [21:45] Enjoy. [21:45] We need the rain HERE!!! [21:45] Robert: i still remember skirts that were one finger width from the panty line. [21:45] There is occasional summer drizzle here in Oahu, but it passes quickly. [21:45] Always wanted to see the Arizona memorial. [21:45] LR, how did you know that was the way it is here in Hawaii?!! [21:46] RobertB Don't you have a HOME [21:46] or a JOB? [21:46] Astoria Joke - How do we know if it is summer time? The rain is warmer [21:46] * m3ch (4k@dialup-4.226.249.251.Dial1.Dallas1.Level3.net) has joined #c64friends [21:46] Arizona Memorial is planned for tomorrow, Antares.

[21:47] Load Star Letter published a pic of me in a LS shirt on the Missouri when it was in Astoria. [21:47] Not like William Shatner, Antares. :-) [21:48] Oooo, I didn't know the battleship Missouri came to Astoria. [21:48] I get my powers from lugging a rototiller. [21:48] Something about letting the fresh water wash off some sort of buildup. Spent about a week tied up at the pier. [21:48] Hmmm.

[21:51] LR, did you know that Myron Daniels and Joe Fenn have been dumping dozens and dozens of 1541's? [21:51] Robert: How is Kilroy doing. Haven't seen much from him recently. [21:52] Don't know, Antares. I'll ask Joe tomorrow. [21:52] No didn't know that at all. #16 did buy some stuff from one of the members of that closed group. [21:52] Myron reported dumping 50-70 1541's!!! He just doesn't have the room anymore. [21:52] I'd sure like to visit Australia. [21:53] Me, too, Antares. [21:53] Oh the humanity!!!

But then buying boxes upon boxes of other peoples collections. Over 80 100 count disk boxes crammed full. Not counting the 1581 boxes I have stuffed on the shelves. Oh well a new vocation. Figure out what I have collected, and hunt for more. [22:58] when I moved they all got boxed up and lost control them. [22:59] Or have others in the group sort and test disks. Hi there #16 {LOL} [22:59] I just moved mine from a small room to a bigger room for my C= use. They are all frelled anyway, worse now, and there are more in the shop. At least another thousand plus. [23:00] I only sort amiga disks right now [23:00] I have those boxes of Amiga disks for you to sort as well. [23:00] I have like 2000 floppies in the back for Amiga. Just bought a box of 300 of those magazine disks. [23:01] Our new Amiga man is #16, for the group. He is just beginning on creating the new library of Amiga things for us. [23:01] those will take time [23:02] Reminds me #16, aliensrcooluk on our list is willing to help with understanding the Amiga and that compression question. [23:02] I gave some Six some stuff to look thru too.. that should take him some time. [23:02] Argh, stop distracting poor Six! ;-) [23:03] maybe I shouldn't bring demos for him to look at tommorrow then :/ [23:03] I'm hoping to get some help from him with my 64 network game [23:03] Ah all Idid was send an email asking more about the article he wanted for the newsletter. [23:03] * LordRonin hears 64 and game in one sentence [23:03] i dont htink 6 is coming tomorrow [23:03] I would like to become a member of the CCCC too. [23:04] meeting is tommorrow if you want to drop by, Caricon [23:04] I work Sunday-Thursday 9:00pm to 5:30am [23:04] help is always good [23:04] #16: as he is in the Uk he can give some advice on that new 1200 you scored. [23:04] Kernal question is: What registers (A,X,Y?) do I pass to STROUT ($A1BE)? [23:05] ok, meeting is at 2pm - 4pm [23:05] * LordRonin blinks dumbfoundedly [23:05] oh.. well short notice.. have family in since the wedding was today [23:06] I only need to know how to hook up a 1200 to a 1084 or a 1942 and do i need any sspecial cables [23:06] that would be a 300 mile round trip for me too. [23:06] owie [23:07] I drive 200 miles around trip to the amiga group [23:07] He may be able to lend a hand on that. Though I am wondering if there is a PAL/NTSC problem between the euro 1200 and the US monitors. [23:07] There used to be a Toledo group, but their email addresses I have no longer work [23:08] I put my old 1200 motherboard into the case [23:08] I searched last week for them on the net. I found some stuff from like 1992 or something like that. [23:09] I emailed them about 3 years ago, and it was valid then... [23:09] Well, that covers my fear. Sounds like cable. Would it do any good to try to connect it to the system here for a test? [23:09] BTW: Do you want me to wait for you to pop by, or should I start on installing the test HD in the controller? [23:09] possibly, I still have to partition a 1 gb hd for it sometime [23:10] My desire is to put in that 5GB hot swappable one and see if it will work. If so then partition it off for the new Village BBS [23:11] * ^Garth^ (garth@c220-239-150-63.eburwd1.vic.optusnet.com.au) has joined #c64friends [23:11] Plus reinstall Geos/Wheels/PP3.8 and Wave.

[23:12] <^Garth^> got an older breadbin here that has difficulty with the colour red [23:13] Not sure at this time. Waiting for a reply. May have been too late. As I had to hunt up the email addy from another mailing. [23:13] <^Garth^> but cant locate the adjusting screw in the machine [23:14] probably under the VIC shielding [23:14] oops time for me to split. Dinner is smoking more than I do and have to prep for the game tonight. BCNU next week.

[23:37] <^Garth^> kilr has one of my cast off machines [23:37] <^Garth^> a pal 128 [23:37] I have pal [23:37] :) [23:37] i need a pal 128 [23:37] you think with all the export and import that comes in thru the US from other countries, that you could just put it in a crate and ship it f or cheap. [23:37] u can [23:37] forward air [23:37] :D [23:38] <^Garth^> i think bulk would work out cheaper than individual items [23:38] absolutely [23:38] <^Garth^> hoping thats the case as i will be sending at least 2 pallets of stuff home [23:38] pallets? [23:39] <^Garth^> wooden pallets chep's [23:39] <^Garth^> 1.2 metre by 1.2 metre [23:40] how high you planning to stack ?? [23:40] <^Garth^> likely around 1 metre as that should do it [23:40] seems they are us only [23:41] bummer [23:41] :D [23:41] <^Garth^> where i work we export a lot of product so might get a good deal hopefully [23:42] go on rgvac usenet, and tell them you need to ship an arcade machine from au to us, and ask where. [23:42] :D [23:42] they'll tell you the best places [23:43] you dont have to tell em it's a pallette of c64's :D [23:43] <^Garth^> i was quoted $60.00 per cubic metre a while back for a pallet load [23:43] regardless of weight? [23:43] better crate the **** really well [23:43] or it WILL get damaged [23:43] <^Garth^> which is way less than 1 128 cost to canada [23:44] {Snogpitch} brb, checking who is in the lobby [23:44] Left QRoom: Snogpitch [23:45] <^Garth^> just me in lobby [23:45] Entered QRoom: Snogpitch [23:46] Howdy Snogpitch [23:46] {Snogpitch} Hody :) [23:48] Left QRoom: Snogpitch [23:48] <^Garth^> managed to get my 64 on qlink but had to reassure the o/s somewhat it was very suspicious of the 64 [23:48] <^Garth^> bbs server plain wont run at all on it [23:48] what OS is the host machine running? [23:49] <^Garth^> vista [23:49] <^Garth^> the firewall is very eager to stop things [23:49] ya, my firewall does the same [23:50] it just lets it go on by now tho :) [23:51] heheh [23:52] vista suxxor [23:52] gonna be worst os ever [23:52] <^Garth^> theres something in bbs server called mscom or similar that it wont run though but i still have the laptop to bbs with [23:52] all dos stuff is gone [23:52] all of it [23:53] whats a command promt?
