DnA Electronic Magazine
Information File
Written by Pazuzu - June 1, 1993
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Many questions have been posed since the initial issue of DnA Magazine on May
5, and there is also some other important information we'd like everyone to
know about, and that is the purpose of this file...
WHAT is DnA? - This question has been asked several times, so I felt is
warranted and answer. DnA Electronic Magazine (or DnA, for short) is just
that - an Electronic Magazine - published basically whenever we feel like it
(usually on a holiday). It is "published" in the form of computer text files,
and is distributed free of charge through the many Electronic Bulletin Board
Systems (BBSs) in the world. I must stress the "free of charge" part - DnA
Magazine will NEVER be available on ANY BBS which would charge for its
download.
DnA IS NOT a "group" in the sense that "The Humble Guys" is a group. There IS
a core "membership" (or staff, as we like to call it), but that's about it.
WHO is DnA? - As I said above, DnA IS NOT a "group", though there are
several staff members. They are: (NOTE: These titles are titles only, and
have little bearing on anything - DnA is run equally by all of us)
Editor in Chief, Staff Writer, Publisher, Propagandist .............. Pazuzu
Sixth Column Editor, Contributing Author, IRS Lover .... Lestat de Lioncourt
Head Writer, Co-Founder, Explosives Freak ......................... Arclight
Publicist, Audio, Video, Lighting................................. chaos bit
Special Equipment Acquisition....................................... Nedhead
Radio Specialist...................................................... Mach5
Beginner's Column Editor, Co-Founder .................................. Luke
"Whenever he feels like it" Author ................. The Stainless Steel Rat
Where can I get DnA? - Well, if you have this file, obviously you already
have at least one issue. As mentioned before, DnA Magazine is available on
many BBSs throughout the world. There are, however, two places you can
always assuredly get it: DnA Systems [(714) 646-9180] and Digital Decay
[(714) 871-2057].
How can I get an article, letter, question, comment, tip, etc, etc, etc,
submitted to the Magazine? - Call DnA Systems at (714) 646-9180 (8N1, 300
- 14,400 bits per second with MNP 1-5, v.42, v.42bis, v.32, v.32bis) and
upload your submission as a PLAIN ASCII text file, or as a file encrypted
with PGP 2.0 or higher (make SURE I have your public key if you send us a PGP
file, and address the message to "Pazuzu" - obviously, you also need MY
public key, which I will include at the bottom of this file) to the "DnA
Submissions" area. All submissions MUST include the Author's handle and area
code.
THINGS WE WILL ACCEPT: In order for something to be considered as an
"article", the file size must be greater than 4096 bytes. Do not take this to
mean we don't accept files smaller than 4k though. Anything not qualifying as
an article may be published in the "Quick Tips" section, if the quality is
high enough. We also accept ANY and ALL letters, questions, and comments.
The file size is irrelevant on these. IMPORTANT NOTE: We strongly support
free speech, and will publish ANY and ALL letters and comments, regardless of
whether or not you agree with us. We are not closed-minded, and do not have a
problem with disagreement. However, any letter resorting to outright
name-calling, swearing, or any other such immaturity will not be published.
How can I "GET INVOLVED" with DnA? - We have meetings almost every Saturday
at the Round Table Pizza in Fountain Valley, California (It's located on the
northeast corner of Warner and Euclid), usually starting at 7pm. We reserve
the "Private Room" - it has a big-screen TV and a VCR. We will, from time to
time, show videos of appearances we've made (READ: riots we've incited) at
political speeches, etc...
