Re: More half-baked social planning ideas
A furnace makes heat, a boiler makes steam or hot water. Many small buildings have a boiler that does all three by combing components in a single unit. Large buildings have three separate units, and more for specialized tasks. In New York City, there is an important distinction between cellar and basement. Cellars are not habitable while basements are. The building code definition of a basement is that at least half its height is above street level, and that of cellar is that just over half its height is below street level. Many residential buildings are designed to take advantage of that distinction. The rule covers sloping site conditions to average the difference between front and back. The basement level is often called the Ground Floor to take away any stigma associated with basement. Much mechanical and electrical equipment is located in the cellar to maximize habitable space above. Same goes for the roof. Terrific expenditures for excavating multi-level cellars are the norm for high-rise buildings -- even in hard rock as in Manhattan -- to produce maximum habitable space allowed under the zoning code, which, in combination with building health, and environmental codes, regulates bulk, height, light, air, room sizes, window sizes and a host of requirements for barely tolerable human habitation -- and legal standards are ever dropping in squalid, squirming cities for luxury as well as dirt cheap holes. We architects are expected to, well, cheat, to maximize what property owners want at the expense of building inhabitants and the inccreasingly squeezed and violated public. What helps us get away with cheating is massive PR by our professional flacks, sophisticated aesthetic and environmental theories that claim wretched architecture is beautiful, drunken orgies with regulatory officials, revolving door participation in standards committees and holding public office -- to be sure, as practised by all professions, in particular those that are solemnly licensed and sworn to protect the public from people like us. Occasionally an idiot architect, like this one, tries to go against the grain, and work dries up instantly and family says dont be stupid, dont shame us. Then back to doing what church and family command to be an outstanding citizen/bandit. Social planning is a useful deception, twinned with the free market -- the two backed beast.

Get Paid Just to Get E-Mail!
Dear cypherpunks , Get Paid To GET E-mail! http://www.skybusiness.com/mer/paidemail.html Hello, fellow opportunist! I have found a wonderful, easy, FREE way to make money using the Internet. I'm sure you're used to receiving SPAM, those annoying advertisements that you didn't want for items that you would never want. Well, how would you like to be PAID for simply receiving e-mail advertisements? Sound to good to be true? Trust me, this is an opportunity you don't want to miss. There are several companies on the Internet that are paying users like you to receive targeted e-mails. Advertisers pay them to send the ads and they pay you to read them. This is completely FREE, you don't spend any money at any time. Most of these programs simply send the e-mail, you click on a link included in the message and your account is credited. You don't even need to read the ad if you don't want to. As an added benefit, most of these companies will ask you what you're interested in, so you receive ads of interest to you. You can use your existing e-mail account or make a new one specifically for this purpose, so you don't clutter your existing account. It only takes a few minutes a day to get through all the ads sent to you. The payout rates may seem small for these companies, but to really make money out of this opportunity, there is one more step. These companies will not only pay you to receive e-mail, they also pay you when someone you refer receives their advertisements. The key is referring as many people as possible. This may seem difficult, but most of the work has already been done for you. Every time you sign up for one of these programs, you will receive a unique referral address of a web site to send potential referrals to. When anyone signs up using your site address, your account is credited every time they receive an advertisement. Simply copy this e- mail, then either include a section with all your referral addresses or, if you know how to, build a small website with the addresses on it, like I did. Then send this e-mail out to those you think will appreciate a good money making opportunity. How ever you choose to do it, generate as many referrals as possible. This is the key to making real money. You get out of these programs what you put into them. Below you'll find the address to my website. There is a small description of what to do, then a table that has the program names, the amount of money you get per e-mail, the amount of money you get when a referral gets e-mail, the minimum balance that your account must be at before you receive a check and how often checks are sent. Simply click on each program name to go to the site to sign-up, sign-up for the programs and you will receive your unique referring address in your e-mail, then start referring. Don't forget to keep clicking on the links to credit your account in each advertisement. This is not a scam or a get-rich-quick scheme. This is a real opportunity that only takes a little effort and WILL put some extra cash in your pocket. You've got absolutely nothing to lose, so just give it a try. Best of luck referring!

Escaping the Internet Archives - Re: Please remove...

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Cheryl Gilan Cheryl - Happy New Year 2001! Cypherpunks is a mailing list. Are you asking us to remove your message from the list archives? There are multiple archives run by various people around the world - they're even more decentralized than the mailing list, plus the list is gatewayed to some Usenet newsgroups, so there may be Usenet archives as well. The ones that are easily located by search engines are in Singapore and Germany. Also, the google.com search engine caches articles it finds - even if we delete them, they won't disappear. Your message to the list, and this reply to it, will be automatically entered in the archives as well, joining your original message. Most archivists don't like to change the past, especially when the things run automatically, but the reason you'd be in one of the archives is because you sent advertising email to three of the email addresses used by the cypherpunks list on September 28, 2000 using your addresses [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Please do not hesitate to contact me at the above numbers. The usual reason people ask to be removed is so spammers don't find their names on the net. Given the reason your name appeared on our list, your request will probably elicit more amusement than sympathy, but we haven't hesitated to archive your contact information. Perhaps it was a mistake, or someone gave you bad business advice on useful ways to increase sales, and you did include your contact information, which is pretty unusual for a spammer, but you'll find that information you've posted to the net never disappears (unless it's something actually useful that you need badly, in which case it hasn't disappeared, it's just where *you* can't find it.) Good, bad, ugly, whatever... you can't escape your writing. There're flames out in some Usenet archive that I posted in 1982, back when it was called Netnews and wasn't carried on the Internet. "C'mon, Joe, you can always change your name" If information never disappears, how do you keep it from coming back to haunt you? Best you can do is have a common name - somebody named Jim Johnson wouldn't have to worry about this. (Won't work for you. Sounds like your family's Iranian? :-) The next best you can do is use minimize the amount of contact information and other unique correlatable data you provide, and use different email addresses for different things. So, for instance, Yahoo mail says you live in Orange, NJ - determining whether that's true shouldn't be hard. USSearch.com thinks so too, but they just got that from Yahoo.

It does recommend using your pseudonymous screen names, and warns that "All postings to the Public Areas become public and, therefore, care should be taken in disclosing personal information.

Steven Levy Talks Crypto
From: "Levy, Steven" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'John Young' [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 4 Jan 2001 15:40:50 -0500 : Hi, John. Can you do me a favor and spread the word around that I'll be talking about CRYPTO at the Upper West Side Barnes and Noble (82nd and Broadway) on TUESDAY (Jan 9) at 7:30 pm? Hope to see you there! Steven - Cryptome will provide -- free --- unlimited dinner and liquor after Steve's talk -- at a local joint not at our penthouse mansion. RSVP, please, so we can lay in humongous supplies. You flying in from the Old Country, tea served. Let me tell you there are serious cryptographers in this favela and their cheapskate employers and legal suckbloods who will cut Steve no slack if not celebrated in CRYPTO. We've read it and know who's missing, transatlanticly, and who told Steve the real story behind non-public encryption. Did you know about the NYC connection of Ellis, Diffie, Gilmore, Venona, ITT, RCA, the Black Chamber, and, get this, Sunder's current deep shit cracking operation of everything transiting the Atlantic by undersea and space -- run from a hole under Brooklyn? Menwith Hill is nothing if not Potemkin. Then there's Harry Hawk and Perry Metzger, don't even think about it, but your laundered money's not safe no matter how carefully cached a havenco. Numbers they factor, big nums, really big nums, and sell results to the worst customers on earth. CRYPTO tells stuff you wouldn't believe.

safe fast diet
Dear Friend, This last fall, our family had a reunion at which time we had a Professional Photographer take pictures, and I wanted to use those pictures of our immediate Family on Christmas cards that we were going to send to Friends and family this Christmas. In November, we got the proofs back so that we could pick our favorite Picture. Everybody looked wonderful and the background was spectacular but I could not Find myself in the picture. I looked and looked and finally got out a magnifying glass.To my horror, I found this woman with a face and body that looked like it was 100 Pounds overweight. I fell off the chair I was sitting on and began to cry. http://www.nat-dat-info.com My body resembled an oversized blimp that would takeoff should a heavy wind arise... it was HIDEOUS! I had mirrors in my house but most of them were designed to only reflect from the waist up and I honestly hadn't noticed that my cheekbones had totally disappeared and that my face looked like a shapeless clump of flesh. Well, I was in a terrible situation and I was at a loss as to what to do. My willpower, well, Basically Sucks and I had so- so -so- much weight to lose that I wasn't sure I'd live long enough to get it all off. Plus, I hate diets and can only stick to them for a very short period of time before I fall off the food Wagon and I always hated to work out!!! My goal to slim down seemed totally hopeless. http://www.nat-dat-info.com AND THEN IT HAPPENED. I received fabulous information about a product called Beverly Hills fat burners. It seemed to contain everything I needed. ; It curbs your appetite, increases energy, burns fat at the fastest rate possible, no special diets are required, you don't have to exercise. It Doesn't make you feel nervous AND Its ALL-NATURAL WITH NO ADVERSE SIDE EFFECTS. It also was priced well below other products and I received a second bottle for being afirst time customer. I figured that if it didn't work I wouldn't be out much money. It also has 100% money back guaranteed. It's been about 5 weeks now but I swear I'm beginning to look like that famous movie star. My cheekbones are absolutely glorious. I have dropped 4sizes and I see the results each and every day. http://www.nat-dat-info.com I swear I look like a new person and a good one at that. I promise you that this product works. It does everything it promises and then some. Just losing the weight alone, makes you feel so much better and younger. It puts zest back into your life and assures you that you'll achieve your weight loss goals. In another few 6 weeks I will reach my goal...something I had given up on a long time ago.
