- : /WELL I SEE that
- : /EB will be coming
- : /off strike soon.
- FAH-Q'S CORNER : /What can that mean
- ------------------/to the employers in
- the area?
-
- Well 14 that I talked to over the last week told me that 44% of their part
- time and 28% of their full time employees are EB strikers and that most of the
- plan to go back to work at EB when the strike is over. That could mean that
- there will be a lot of jobs open to the unemployed come next month, but on the
- other side, some of the employers I talked to told me that they opened those
- jobs to the strikers because they remember the last long strike and felt that
- longer exist when the strike is over. Two of the local taxi companies have
- almost all EB strikers as their employees. Now, some of them plan on staying o
- as cab drivers because the income can be good (500-700 a week) Most will retur
- to work because though the potentials there in the cab for good money is not
- always the case. There are bad weeks and good weeks and no benefits. So if you
- have a family to support there is a choice between making maybe 500 a week and
- a paycheck at the end of the week. You decide. When this strike is over I
- expect to see a few unhappy employers in the area for a while and if you are
- looking for a job there are certainly gunna be a lot of them out there. We at
- ATI, we're all for the strike, and now / that it's all over we would like /
- to see the families/ get back on their / feet.
- Thank you. : /
- : /WELL, ELECTION TIME IS
- : /almost on us again and
- :/who do you vote for?
- --------------Also who will vote. If
- you dont vote you better keep your mouth shut when it comes to the
- president because if you dont like him you COULD HAVE voted against him.
- Now that I have that out of the way let me give you a few of my thoughts
- about the US election process. We elect an official to office by voting. Well
- if everyond doesnt go out to vote the process wont work right. I mean if there
- are 3 million people and only 1 million vote doest that reflect what the publi
- as a whole thinks??? (on a united nations poll of 45 "democracies" based solel
- on voter turn out, the US ranked 45th) No. The poor and unemployed dont like t
- get out and vote because, "man I've been poor this long what makes you think
- voting will change anything". Well It could change a lot if all the unemployed
- and poor voted. Taxes. Well I dont care who gets in to office and on what
- promise he got there on. He will have to raise taxes to make the budget meet.
- You want more money for the roads, schools, police, and other things. Well
- where do you think that moolah comes from? The government doesnt pull it off
- the trees. And any candidate that tells you that he can run this country
- without raising any taxes is a fuckin lier and should get out of the race now
- because he lives in a dream world./

- (APWN)Sprint-Thursday nite, Doc Telecom formerly known as Laser, was pretty
- much busted by Sprint. Telecom was selling his computer to someone when there
- was a knock on his door. Telecom's brother answered the door; Daniel M. Loredo
- manager Kansas City, and R. E. "Sandy" Sandquist, manager Denver.
- After the warrant schitt out of the way, they came in and looked thru all
- of Telecom's stuff.
- Upon seeing a disk labeled "Phrack 18, Phrack 19, FH.Exe" Loredo said it was
- incriminating. Telecom argued it was nothing more than text files. The Sprint
- reps then looked thru Telecom's weekly notes finding CBI accounts, trw
- accounts,
- and a citibank. But no calling cards. They wanted sprint codes, according to
- Telecom.
- "They can just suck," said Telecom, "my long dong silver here."
- Telecom says he was supposed to download sixty-five thousand (65,000)
- sprint FON cards the other nite.
- "hehehe. Well at least I knew there were a lot. It would take 30 megs of
- my drive."
- Sprint reps said they have his number and he was on their system for 19 or
- so hours.
- "Just think," said Telecom. "This same shit happened last year. Remember
- A local Telecommunications enthusiast named Cygnus says this pattern has
- been going on for more than 5 years now. Every year, around October,
- security people start making charges and they dont let up til around
- Christmas time. Almost as if they have to reach their quotas.
- "This is not good news," said Cygnus.

- ITT's Newsletter to customers has interesting information: One page of the
- newsletter cheerfully tells ITT customers in the state of California that
- beginning October 1, their intra- state rates will decrease by an average of 1
- percent. Then, the next page of the newsletter announces that the California
- Public Utilities Commission instituted a surcharge on intrastate telephone
- calls in California to fund deaf and disabled communications programs, to be
- effective on, you guessed it, October 1st. And, the newsletter adds, the
- surcharge is being "passed along".
-
- This is reminiscent of an interesting incident last year regarding California
- intrastate surcharges and AT&T's long distance rates. In an incident last
- year, an AT&T intracompany memo stated that although they recently lowered
- them that their intrastate rates were too low and they had to raise them. So,
- they agreed to AT&T's proposal that the increase they were forced to implement
- would appear on customers' invoices in the form of a new surcharge that would
- be STRICTLY AT&T revenue! Ah, what blatant attempts to fool the consumer!
-
- In another development, Allnet instituted a new policy in which a $.90 per
- month "bill handling charge" is imposed on all customers who make long distanc
- calls, but whose charges amount to less than $10 per month. So much for the
- "We value your business, large or small" credo!

- (APWN)New London-
- Political artist Faith Ringgold has spent the last three days at Connecticut
- college in New London, guiding "issue oriented" students in the art department
- to an artistic expression of their opinions on social issues.
- The six students working under Ms. Ringold's instruction are preparing a
- performance piece to be presented tonight at 8 in the East Dance Studio at the
- Crozier-Williams Student Center. Ms. Ringgold will also give a lecture titled
- "Faith Ringgold Talks About Her Art".
- "The students have been asked to become a character that represents an issue
- that will be very important in the year 2000," said Ms. Ringgold Wednesday.
- "They've come up with six issues or characters: apathy, God, nuclear winter,
- drugs, child abuse, and computerized memory loss."
