            I gather there is no interest in 9mm reloads or any other type of
    reloads since there was no input.   You could have saved money and had
    custom reloads.... Oh Well... we will drop the idea and sell our 9mm brass.

            How about 22 reloads?  (Just kidding)  I think your idea of reloads
    for 9mm is fantastic, I really do.  If I had a 9mm I would go for it.
            Ask Nick or Dean about it, they both have a 9mm.

            This SIG is not for insults...  we can't have our 'ELITE' getting to
    verbose with colorful metaphors at each other, now can we.  For a change,
    lets have a friendly SIG...  Talk about a GT or something.
            Maybe this SIG is not such a good idea.... I get worried when users
    ask what the LIMITS are.

    A question for Mr. Carter --- I'm interested in some details on how the
    terminals in Phoenix police cars operate. Have you done any research on this
    as to what frequency they operate on, and how easily the signal can be
    intercepted and decoded/displayed?

            Use them correctly or get your post ZAPPED!
    It seems to me that people hit the [C] for Chit Chat, but get the category
    of [C]ommodore/Amiga instead.  This is confusing and unfair to the people
    who have Commodores end up reading about TRS-80s.  I removed J.T. from this
    SIG because he would not use the Categories correctly.
            Instead of [C]hit-Chat on this SIG, use [B]it Bucket Talk for
    general talk.  I am trying to make a serious COMPUTER/HARDWARE/SOFTWARE SIG
    and some do not wish to cooperate.   Religion/Politics etc will NOT be
    tolerated on this SIG.  Scanners are fine... Hi tech equipment, fine!
            If you do not know the categories...list them!

     I'll try that again, but if I recall correctly, it worked fine on this
    terminal program, but when I put my GEOS word processor in all I could get
    was double spaces, even though it was set for or single spaces. THis
    terminal program is really the only one I am having a problem with, but I
    will play with the Epson switch again and see what happens. Thanks for the
    advice and offer.

     Cliff, after I went off line a while ago, I tripped the internal switch on
    my Epson and printed out a buffer. No problem. I got line feeds and
    everything was fine - until I tried my GEOS program, and then my Print Shop.
    When I use anything other than this terminal program, I get double spacing
    all the way! This is most frustrating. The problem MUST be in the terminal
    program. Either I have to find someone who can alter this one, or I will
    have to find another one. Problem is that , aside from the lack of LF, I
    really like this program. It has some real nice features, and is more than
    user friendly. Oh well. Any other suggestions? I'll try anything. Thanks for
    your help so far. It just wasn't the answer.

      Wisconsin human rights officer Laurie Rouleau, quoted by
    the *Milwaukee Journal* in March, argued that convicted
    flasher Britton McKenzie, who had admitted exposing himself
    "thousands" of times in laundromats and other "indoor"
    locations, might have been illegally discriminated against
    when turned down for a state laborer's job due to his
    criminal record.  Rouleau noted that the job required only
    "outside" work.

      John Wayne Gacy, 45, on death row in Illinois and suspected
    of killing 33 young men and boys, announced his engagement on
    February 28 to Sue Terry, 43, of Centralia, Ill.  Said Terry,
    who is the mother of eight children, of the charges against
    Gacy, "I don't believe hardly any of it."

      In Knoxville, Ill., the widow and two children of Carl
    Stevens were discovered in January to have been attending
    regularly to Stevens for eight years as if he had been ill,
    when actually he had been dead.  Sheriff Mark Shearer told
    reporters, "Let's just say ((the family has)) abnormal
    beliefs in the power of healing."

      In January, a man in Charles Town, W/Va., pulled a gun
    outside a convenience store minutes before it opened, fired
    a shot through the front window to gain entry, and forced the
    clerk to sell him a can of STP Oil Treatment.

      In Coquitlan, British Columbia, Allen Foster, 37, charged
    with the bludgeoning deaths of three people, committed
    suicide in April by holding a ball-point pen against a door
    and leaning into it with great force.  When his first attempt
    penetrated his chest but did not kill him, Foster tried again
    and punctured his heart.

      Experienced parachutist Ivan Lester McGuire, 35, sky-dove
    to his death in April near Louisburg, N.C.  He had loaded up
    with portable video equipment to record his dive but
    apparently had forgotten to pack his parachute.  Tape of the
    dive was recovered, showing McGuire flailing his arms upon
    discovery of his ommission.

            As I said.... you may not have caught it, but some software can
    compensate for LF with CR...  You may have to ajust ALL your other software
    for the correct Epson setting.
            The other trick I have seen people do with programs that are set
    opposit their switch settings. (Common years ago with the TRS-80 people) is
    to put an external switch on the EPSON to switch between LF + CR or just CR.

            When I had a C-64 I used VIP Term and it did everything I wanted
    except the buffer was only 7K.  Vip Term can give you a 40, 80 or 106 column
    display, has a on line 'workspace' for writing nasty anti-religious messages
    for uploading.  It was an easy, fun program with loads of features and it
    always printed everything out with the correct linefeeds using an Epson
    Printer.
