>    July 24, 2003 - Hi everybody! In about two weeks, which would
>    be about August 8, we will be moving things around a little,
>    and putting all the Doctor Fun files into the /public/html
>    directory tree on ibiblio. The name of the root directory will
>    still be "/Dave" in order not to break a gazillion (I wish)
>    bookmarks and links, but now the rest of the Doctor Fun files
>    will actually hang off the /Dave directory and there will be
>    no more wacky recursive symbolic links between the /Dave
>    directory and the /ftp directories. Ftp access to Doctor Fun
>    on ibiblio will be discontinued. At last look, we were getting
>    about 90 ftp transactions per day compared to about 40K http
>    transactions in the /Dr-Fun directory. If you are one of those
>    90 transactions, I apologize, and hope you will be able to get
>    the file through http. Keep in mind some mirror sites may
>    continue to run ftp, and there's nothing wrong with that - it
>    just doesn't seem to be the right place for it at ibiblio
>    anymore (ftp access at ibiblio is mostly geared to software
>    distros and stuff like that). Also, if you are reading the
>    pages through the recursive directory /Dave/Dr-Fun/html...,
>    that particular "copy" of the html directory will disappear,
>    but it was never really there to begin with.
> 
>    If you have a mirror site, you will need to use rsync to get
>    your daily updates. I don't know that much about this business
>    myself, having never had to set up a mirror site (I rely so
>    much on the kindness of strangers...), but I'm told it's
>    pretty easy to do, and light on the bandwidth and all those
>    good things, etc. A sample command for mirroring Doctor Fun
>    would be:
> 
> $ rsync -av ibiblio.org::Dr-Fun/ /path/to/local/mirror/dir
> 
>    The rsync man page is here.
> 
>    I am hopeful that the mirror sites that are updating (some
>    seem to be a little sporadic, but I appreciate the thought)
>    will continue to mirror using rsync. There might be other ways
>    to do it using http, but that is up to you.
> 
>    If you are not mirroring Doctor Fun and are simply one of my
>    cherished readers, you will not see any change at all.
> 
>    Thanks ot Adrianne at ibiblio for helping me with this.
>    Adrianne also set up a second area for some of the files on
>    the /Dr-Fun tree. I will be moving some of the extraneous
>    stuff, like the running pictures to this area so that mirror
>    sites don't need to pick these things up if all they want is
>    the cartoons. In fact, I might add more silly things that
>    don't belong under the /Dr-Fun directory and everybody will be
>    a winner.
> 
>    July 21, 2003
>      * Stay tuned for an announcement about mirroring and Doctor
>        Fun file locations. We are either going to move to using
>        rsync, and put all the Doctor Fun files in the html branch
>        of ibiblio (meaning ftp access goes away), or put the html
>        files in the /Dave/Dr-Fun directory so that this hated
>        recursive symbolic link that makes people think the files
>        aren't updating goes away. If you have an opinion about
>        this, let me know. Thanks.

>    July 9, 2003, I've eliminated the bizarro linkage between the
>    /html file under /Dr-Fun/html and /Dr-Fun, which maybe used to
>    be useful but now causes nothing but problems. If this has
>    messed up your mirroring, contact me and I'll, um, do
>    something, I'm not sure what.
> 
>    July 1, 2003, for no particularly good reason other than to
>    have a news item, and because I suppose it keeps me fit to
>    draw more cartoons, I've updated the running pictures to
>    include two more races, one recent, and one from last summer.
>    Not much of an explanation for either of them, except you can
>    follow the pictures from start to finish. If you like this
>    sort of thing, this is the sort of thing you might like.

>    Welcome to the all new spiffed-up and friendlier Doctor Fun

> 
>    What the [DEL: fu :DEL] heck is Doctor Fun?
> 
>    Doctor Fun is a cartoon. Not all Doctor Funs may be suitable
>    for children and some childlike adults. There's a new Doctor
>    Fun every weekday. Doctor Fun is hosted by ibiblio, the
>    public's library and digital archive, at the University of
>    North Carolina, Chapel Hill. Doctor Fun first appeared on the
>    Internet in 1993, and has been at ibiblio (ibiblio has had
>    other names, including SunSITE and Metalab) since 1994. What
>    Doctor Fun is, for the literal-minded, is a 640 x 480 pixel
>    24-bit color JPEG file. Doctor Fun has the dubious distinction
>    of being the first web cartoon. Doctor Fun was not, however,
>    the first cartoon on the Internet.
> 
>    I still don't get it. Why do they let you ...? You're not ...?
>    But ...?
> 
>    Never you mind. Look - there's no reason for Doctor Fun to
>    even exist, but here it is.
> 
>    Thanks! Now that I know all that, I want to read the latest

> 
>    That wasn't really a question, was it? If you didn't
>    particularly like whatever the latest Doctor Fun cartoon
>    happened to be, perhaps you are still Doctor Fun-curious and
>    would like to see some Doctor Funs that other people seem to
>    like a lot. Here's a mix of cartoons that other people,
>    perhaps like you, seemed to enjoy. These cartoons actually got
>    some hits, or I actually got some e-mail about them, or both.

> 
>    Oh, yes, you can search the Doctor Fun captions two different
>    ways:
> 
>    Jack Leblond at Net Smart Incorporated, and Support Your
>    Troops has kindly provided a mirror for Doctor Fun in the form
>    of a search engine. You can also get a random Doctor Fun
>    cartoon at Jack's page. Have fun.
> 
>    Mark Plaga has created another Doctor Fun search page. Mark's
>    page will display a slide show of cartoons after you make your
>    search. Have more fun.
> 
>    It would be great if I could search more than the captions.
> 
>    Yes, it would be great, but none of that is available and it's
>    entirely my fault.
> 
>    Electronic postcards are so popular with the young people
>    these days. Can I send a Doctor Fun electronic postcard to
>    some teenage girls I met on IRC?
> 
>    You can send a smaller version of a selected number of Doctor
>    Fun cartoons as an electronic postcard at Toonogram, sponsored
>    by Cyber Loft.
> 
>    Toonogram was provided courtesy of Mostafa Eldefrawy, who did
>    all of the work. Mostafa was also kind enough to give me the
>    code to turn any Doctor Fun into a Toonogram, which I will do
>    someday.
>

>    "electronic mail". Is there perchance a Doctor Fun mailing
>    list?

>    to me?
> 
>    These Doctor Fun mirrors might be closer to you than ibiblio.
>    This list is new and improved because the cartoons on these

>           + My "corner office near the A-level stacks" in the

>           + The first comic on the Internet: Hans Bjordahl's

>           + The Bill Gates cake. This was actually the "screen"
>             for a cake that was shaped like a computer monitor. I
>             heard he didn't eat any of the cake but he kept the

>             Windows 3.x. "Chicago" was the code name for Windows
>             95; the screen is Microsoft's within-Word web browser
>             plug-in; the Doctor Fun pose is a reference to an
>             Easter egg that was hidden in Windows 3.x.)
>           + The book Amy mentioned that I was reading was "The
>             Earth Dwellers: Adventures in the Land of Ants", by

>    April 3, 2003, Jack Leblond, who has maintained a Doctor Fun
>    search engine at Net Smart Incorporated, since way back when,

> 
>    April 2, 2003, This cartoon is running in National Review this
>    week.
> 
>    March 31, 2003 - I did, in fact, forget to update the cartoon
>    last Thursday, but everything's fixed now. Thanks to everyone
>    keeping score. By amazing coincidence, this week happens to be
>    archive page "404" of Doctor Fun.
> 
>    March 17, 2003 - back, from a fabulous one-week break! There
>    will be more.
> 
>    News news! There was an article about ibiblio that mentioned
>    Doctor Fun in the News Observer.
> 
>    March 10, 2003 - As promised, a one-week break, and, as usual,
>    some old scanned cartoons from 1988-89. The new ones start
>    here. There may not be as many cartoons from those two years
>    as I thought - I've caught some duplicates. You might also
>    notice that some in this batch were re-used in early Doctor
>    Funs. And, there's a whole bunch about guitars. I might give
>    those their own page after the break. I deny knowing how to
>    play the guitar or knowing anything about guitars anymore.
> 
>    Not sure what the schedule is for the book. Keep sending me
>    your favorites. Thanks.
> 
>    March 6, 2003 - It seems nobody much liked having the
>    thumbnail of the latest cartoon on this page, so I got rid of
>    it.
> 
>    March 4, 2003 - For sure I am taking a one-week break next
>    week. For sure I will have some treat for you in place of new
>    cartoons.
> 
>    February 27, 2003 - Cock-a-doodle-doo! Today is either the
>    2000th or the 2001st Doctor Fun, if I counted them right. Why
>    the confusion? It turns out I repeated myself. Honest mistake.
>    Didn't catch it until recently. Never happen again. Right. The
>    two culprits are
> 
>                [dp19980422.jpg] and [dp20021016.jpg] 
> 
>    I'm keeping them both, because they are of historic interest.
>    Now I can say there are thousands of Doctor Funs online. Why
>    not read them all? Why not read them randomly?
> 
>    Wait! That's not all. There is even more. Want to know when
>    anything updates on the Doctor Fun pages? It's important to
>    know this because hardly anybody ever looks at this page
>    compared to the gazillions (slight exaggeration) of readers
>    who just grab the cartoon. I could be giving free money away
>    here and you'd never know. Thanks to Jonathan Ah Kit, you can
>    now join the Doctor Fun Website Changes List. Thanks,
>    Jonathan!
> 
>    February 24, 2003 - stayed tuned for a Doctor Fun milestone
>    later this week, but in the meantime, enjoy this old favorite.
> 
>    February 17, 2003 - whenever I don't have any real news, I'm
>    going to start posting some random page here in order to make
>    it look like there's some news. For instance, this week check
>    out Doctor Fun's Head Trip. Whoa.
> 
>    February 10 - Ever wanted to color in Doctor Fun yourself? Try
>    a Doctor Fun Segmation! What's a Segmation? Click on it and
>    find out. From ... Segmation!
> 
>    February 3, Coming real soon, Doctor Fun Paint-by-Numbers! (As
>    soon as I hear back from them - think I'm not allowed to call
>    it "Paint-by-Numbers" ... "Color-According-to-Digits"?)
> 
>    January 22, Here's a Doctor Fun logo from many years ago.
> 
>    January 20
>      * In case you didn't notice, there's now an RRS feed for the
>        last 15 Doctor Funs, courtesy of Philip Newton. Thanks,
>        Philip!
>      * I finally finished the Doctor Fun book cover. You can see
>        it on the Doctor Fun Book FAQ page. Still looking for your
>        favorite Doctor Funs. Mail me. Thanks.
>      * Coming real soon, Doctor Fun Paint-by-Numbers! (I think)
> 
>    January 6 - back again. No breaks for awhile. The book cover
>    will be available for you to peep at soon. Thanks to all of
>    you who sent me their votes for favorite Doctor Fun cartoons.
>    Looks like we'll be sorting them all out at the end of
>    January, so you still have time to e-mail me . More news soon.
> 
>    December 29, 2002
>      * Still on break, but there is new stuff (see above).
>      * A certain P. Wilkins is the only person so far to send me
>        any favorite cartoons to consider for the book. And she
>        wants this one.
> 
>    December 10, 2002 At last, here's some news about the Doctor
>    Fun book.
> 
>    November 25, 2002 Hello to anybody who stopped by the Plan
>    Nine Publishing booth at the Midwest Furfest and picked up
>    some cards or stopped to chat. See? There really is going to
>    be a Doctor Fun book and this proves it.
> 
>    November 10, 2002 I've changed the main Doctor Fun page to put
>    all the links back at the top. News on the book to follow, as
>    promised. There will likely be a two-week break at
>    Thanksgiving due to my driving all over the place. Fortunately
>    I have about a zillion more old scanned cartoons to put
>    online.
> 
>    October 29, 2002 Trick-or-treat! We found another mirror site.
>    This time it's Yale Medical School. Yay for Yale! Go Bulldogs!
>    Actually it looks like they're mirroring most or all of
>    ibiblio and Doctor Fun is just part of this mix.
>    Never-the-less, you can get the latest Doctor Fun, or the
>    Doctor Fun Page, from gnujake.med.yale.edu.
> 
>    October 28, 2002 A slightly less confusing home page and some
>    news on the book (yes, there is a book, no, it won't be here
>    by Christmas) is coming. I'm posting this here to make me
>    actually do it sometime soon.
> 
>    September 23, 2002 Thanks to Nicholas Barnard, who runs the
>    Doctor Fun mailing list, you can also subscribe to get the
>    latest Doctor Fun logo whenever it updates.
> 
>    September 16, 2002 - we're back. No breaks until maybe
>    Thanksgiving (except for unexpected breaks) - yay!
> 
>    Also, new mirror discovered! This one in Austria. They are
>    mirroring the cartoons but not the pages, but that's ok. Get
>    the latest Doctor Fun or browse the Doctor Fun files at the
>    Vienna University of Technology.
> 
>    August 13, 2002 Mirror News! I've been told the SUNET mirror
>    for Doctor Fun in Sweden is active again, and I've corrected
>    the links to the mirror at the Manchester University in Great
>    Britain. Thanks to both these places for their continuing
>    support.
> 
>    May 20, 2002 The Doctor Fun book is still in the works, in
>    color, and all that. I should have the cover art ready for you
>    to look at soon, which will be at Plan Nine Publishing, but it
>    is not ready yet.
> 
>    May 3, 2002, Virus warning: My e-mail addresses from ibiblio,
>    including old ones that I don't even use anymore, are cropping
>    up on this Klez or Exploit-MIME virii that are going around. I
>    have nothing to do with these messages, other than someone has
>    hijacked my e-mail address as the return. Most likely, the
>    people sending them are unaware that their computers are
>    infected, so it's bad both ways. I've been receiving these
>    things myself, supposedly from me! It is a continual
>    aggravation.
