MAILING LIST 
------------ 

There are now about 50+ people getting this through the mail.  Mike seems 
to have fixed a problem or two so now everyone who wrote should receive  
this "demonews" file. We can also send the "TOP25DL" file every week but 
there seems to be an update bug with the file reseting the ftp.syslog. 
With our luck the script will crash on the 13 meg ftp.syslog.0 when it 
tries to create the TOP25DL file. 

The mail results are in...Thus far, after 6+ hours only 2 messages have 
bounced and I was able to correct one of the addresses.  So, if you 
are a "Toby Y Yue" at a location @ss1.bath.ac.uk then E-mail me with 
your correct address and I will fix the problem. 
--------- 
DEMOS.TXT 
--------- 

This file in the /alpha directory has been recently updated.  We still 
have about 50 demos yet to review but at least you now have a more updated 
file.  Mike, Erik?, and I (Dan) are slowly doing the reviews with me doing 
the least.

FINALLY 
======= 

If you have anything demo related you want to say you can say it here too. 
Just mail me what you want to say by Friday and I will include it in the 
newsletter that weekend. 

This weeks QUOTE comes from John Candy who died March 4, 1994: 
  "My dogs are barking today."  Planes, Trains, & Automobiles 

From Blues Brothers to SCTV to Uncle Buck John Candy was a very funny man.
