This mailing list was set up for people who are interested in information about the passing of amendment 2 in Colorado. This is a moderated mailing list for information only. For general discussion, subscribe to: amend2-discuss@cs.colorado.edu Complaints, comments, questions to: amend2-mod@cs.colorado.edu All mail that gets sent to amend2-info@cs.colorado.edu will also be posted to co.politics.amend2.info.

One main rule applies for now: PLEASE THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU WRITE AND WHO IT MIGHT OFFEND BEFORE YOU SEND IT! BE COURTEOUS, PLEASE. -------- Citizens Project newsletter -------- Date: Thu, 4 Mar 1993 22:11:17 -0700 From: Ed Arnold To: amend2-info@cs.colorado.edu Subject: Citizens Project Newsletter, Feb-Mar 93 The Feb-Mar 1993 issue of the Citizen's Project Newsletter, "9302newslet.txt", is now available in plain ascii for electronic distribution. The Citizens Project is a grass-roots organization formed to counteract extremism and the religious right in Colorado Springs, in the wake of passage of Colorado's Amendment 2. There are two ways for you to get the Citizens Project newsletter: 1. Via anonymous "ftp" (file transfer protocol), if you have full Internet connectivity. 2. Via the "ftpmail" server, if you have access to Internet e-mail, or other e-mail service that has a gateway to the Internet. If you can use ftp, use the following sequence of commands to retrieve it, where "csn.org" is at address 128.138.213.21 on the Internet (you can use the numerical address in place of "csn.org", if your machine doesn't know the name): ftp csn.org login: anonymous password: $your_email_id cd Citizens_Project ls #to see what files are there ascii get $the_file_you_want quit The newsletter issues have names like "9212newslet.txt", where "9212" is the issue for 1992, twelfth month (December). If you have access only to Internet or Internet-gatewayed e-mail service, you can use the FTPmail server at DEC Western Research to retrieve the newsletter for you. Compose a mail message which contains the following commands in the message body, then e-mail it to "ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com". (If you have other e-mail service that has a gateway to the Internet, then you may have to add something to this address. For instance, on CompuServe, you would e-mail to "internet:ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com".) reply $your_email_address connect csn.org anonymous $your_email_address ascii chunksize $your_byte_limit chdir Citizens_Project get $the_file_you_want quit The "chunksize $your_limit" is only necessary if your local system administrator has limited the size of messages which the mailer at your site will accept. If you need further info on how to use "ftpmail", send a message whose body consists of only the command "help" to "ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com". In particular, you may want to send ftpmail a command to list the contents of the Citizens Project directory, before sending a request to retrieve the issue you want. Yes, we would LOVE to have you help us electronically re-distribute the newsletter to as many places as possible. If you would like to do so, please observe the following caveats: 1. If you know of an Internet-accessible mailing list or Usenet newsgroup you think we ought to add to our distribution, please reply and tell us what it is. We would encourage you NOT to re-distribute the newsletter in this case without asking us, so people are not likely to be subjected to multiple copies of this message on any list or group. 2. If you know of a standalone or networked BBS (non-Internet, e.g. FidoNet) which you'd like to re-distribute the newsletter on for us, please notify us via e-mail that you have done so, give us the name and phone number of the BBS, and give us your e-mail address so we may send future issues to you for re-distribution. If we know where the newsletter is being re-distributed, we won't be in the dark if a SYSOP contacts us to tell us he doesn't want our material on his BBS. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Corrections, new info, and requests for info: amend2-info@cs.colorado.edu Administrative comments : amend2-mod@cs.colorado.edu General Discussion : amend2-discuss@cs.colorado.edu Boulder/Denver area local meetings/events : amend2-local@cs.colorado.edu ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe to a list, send mail to Majordomo@cs.colorado.edu, with subscribe in the BODY of the message.
