- Hi, welcome to ATI. We'll make this a relatively short one.. In this issue we
- have some miscellaneous things that we're sure you'll enjoy. Read on!
-
- P*A*W*N*P*A*W*N*P*A*W*N*P*A*W*N*P*A*W*N*P*A*W*N*P*A*W*N*P*A*W*N*P*A*W*N*

- Now it's time for another great column by Prime Anarchist, The Prime Anarchist
- World News:
-
- Dear Sirs:
-
- Please send me information on your dead seals. I understand you have them
- frozen. I am most interested in the furs and any oils that can be extracted.
- I'll be throwing the rest of them away.
- oops, wrong letter. grettings phellow peploids. Prime, back at you with more
- PAWN. Prime Anarchist World News tonight is brought to you by ATI in
- conjunction with AJAX, Palmolive, and Mr. Clean (as you know, the guy on the
- Mr. Clean bottle is Tom Metzger, white supremacy fascist. He won't be too
- pleased to know that he's helped out with postage here).
- GREAT TRASHING IDEA. read this, and collect 3 accrediteed points towards
- your degree in phreak101. You must be majoring in garbology, or at least
- willing to minor in it. Typing rooms. If there is a typing room in your local
- library, check out their garb cans. They are an excellent source of all kinds
- of info, as many people use these facilities to type up resumes, job
- applications, and loan applications.
- Monica DeGrieff. Remember her? She looks really bad. Dark circles under
- her eyes, all strung out, she looks likeshe's doing a nervous breakdown soon.
- Last month she resigned as mayor of Bogota, Colombia. Probably saved her life.
- Earl Grey tea is very good, if you can find it.
- The White House Press Office is back up. 1-800-424-9090. Reporters call
- it so they can pretend they went to DC and report on Bush. Sometimes comical,
- once in a blue moon, informative, the # is worth your dime (I thought the call
- is phree! -GZ)
- Steal This Dirt-- Members of the Hackberry Hill Brethren Grace Church
- arrived to "la culta" one Sunday morning to find 3 feet of the dirt surroundin
- their church gone. Who took it? A construction company called Ames. They
- used the dirt to build Interstate 76. The case is still in court. Hey, I say
- if you can get your materials free of charge, why not do it? And what better
- group to liberate it from than a "not-for-profit" organization???
- In Iowa, a payphone call now costs 35 cents!!! Mucho mas than other
- citystates. Some charge 25 cents (New York), yet others are still holding fast
- at 10 cents (Connecticut). You can bet your bottom dollar that each city who
- thinks he can get away with this hike, will follow suit. I say time to repeat
- another good old-fashioned sticker campaign. Use computer mailing labels. Make
- them read something like this:
-
- -------------------------------------
- : PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS PAYFONE :
- : TO COMMIT LOCAL FONE CALLS UNLESS :
- : IT IS A GRAVE EMERGENCY. GOTO UR :
- : FRIENDZ HOUSE, OR USE YOURS. OR :
- : KNOCK ON ANOTHER DOOR AND MAKE A :
- : NEW FRIEND. "CAN I BORROW YOUR :
- : FONE? THAT ONE'S BROKE." :
- : Sponsored by FaFAFACFAC. The :
- : faction for a five cent fone call :
- -------------------------------------
-
- To order free copies of the Prime Anarchist Phamily Photo Album, or to
- order Chaos, or just to call, call 801-321-8533. Tell Norris Admonton how,
- what or who you're feeling. He'll understand. Esta moi.
- LIMA--Peruvians by the thousands are running around with their arms up in
- t air chanting "say yes to democracy!" They're calling it "armed strike".
- Gosh, everyone's up in arms these days.
- "Hang up, I'm going to pound off," says Malcolm Freex.
- "Can I watch?" asks Andrew Oliphant.
- Hehehehe.
- WE'VE GOT BIG BILLS -- Many large-city police stations receive collect
- calls from their informants. If you know the name of an officer you don't
- like, "hello, collect call to officer bob, from pedro, an informant." Do it
- many times and they'll call him in Monday next month and say "you're costing
- us too much $."
- IS YOUR FONE TAPPED? Find out. Call the Privacy expert. Richard Sweeney,
- PI. 303-298-7760 (or was that 7766? I can't even read my own riting).
- I HATE MALE OPERATORS -- by NRK
- I couldn't read the entire payfone # but wanted to charge some calls to
- it. So I called the 0 operator.
- "Can you tell me what # I'm at? I'm standing at a payfone and wish to get
- a call here."
- "No," she said. "I can't do that."
- I asked her a couple of times then gave up and said "supervisor please."
- "Nope. He'll tell you the same thing."
- "I'll take that chance."
- "Supervisor," said the male voice. "Can I help you?" I told him the scene.
- He suggested that I call 1411.
- "You're kidding me," I said. "How will they know? I'm at one of two miles
- wrth of payfones." He assured me that the 1411 op would be able to.
- "He lied," said a comforting 1411 voice. "Try calling the 0 operator a
- couple of times. Maybe one of them will give it to you."
- I succeeded on my first try.
- "I sure CAN tell you. I apologize for that supervisor," said another 0
- operator.
- Springwater, free, abundant and food 4-u.
- Eym att sum kar deelurship und their'z a karr serkling a round mee. Eye
- guest itz zum kynd uv sekkuretty gye.
- BROKE AT THE GOLDEN ARCHES? Why, just whip out your gold card. McDonald's
- nw accepts Visa, MC. Hold on.
- Ok, now I feel better after having puked all over my sneakers. That's
- about the sickest thing I've observed about Amerika yet. You know tings are
- bad when you gotta debit it out for a frenchfry and a mcChugnut.
- "I-would glad-ly pay-you mon-day 4-a ham-bur-ger 2-day..."
- "They're 5 cents each? Put it on my Diners' Club."
- Hmm, this cinnamon roll is dee-licious! Almost holds down that barf taste.
- Politics is the way somebody lives his life. So remember, if you can't be
- radical for a just cause, then be radical just because. Prime outta here.

- Here's some thoughts on auto insurance:
-
- These are the reasons why car insurance rates are high :
- 1. high medical care costs
- 2. high auto repair bills
- 3. lawsuits
- 4. auto theft
- 5. fraudulent claims
- 6. industry operating costs
- 7. urbanization (population)
- 8. The mix of vehicles...small cars greater damage usually more expensive.
-
- Facts: Lawyers get about .52 cents of a dollar on any claim.
- A 12000. car would cost aprox. 40000. to rebuild using parts suppli
- In the past six years medical costs have risen 80%.

- A few words about Canada...
-
- 400,000 USE FOOD BANKS TO SURVIVE, STUDY SAYS
-
- Reprinted from the Toronto Star
- Saturday, November 18, 1989, Page A12
-
- Nearly 400,000 Canadians must resort to usig food banks or some
- other charitable food program every month or face starvation, a study
- released yesterday shows.
- One in every 65 Canadians now relies on a food bank or food
- donations just to survive, according to a Canadian Association of Food
- Banks survey of 65 food banks across the country.
- Of these recipients, at least 40 per cent are children, says Barry
- Davidson of the association.
- "This os one of the most shocking numbers," he told the opening
- session of a weekend food bank conference at the University of Western
- Ontario yesterday. "It means kids are almost twice as (badly) off as
- adults."
- The study, based on statistics for March, 1989, indicates children
- are twice as likely as adults to be fed by food banks.
- In March 1989, the association's official "humber count" was
- 378,000 Canadians from 175,000 households, who required food assistance
- about 1.3 times per month.
- Of these, 87 per cent received groceries to prepare at home; 13
- per cent averaged 23 meals per month, the survey found.
- The survey also found the amount of food distributed increased
- significantly from 648 tons in 1988, up to 782 tons in only the first
- 10 months of this year.

- This issue we have a small column. It's a possible conversation that possibly
- could have taken place over a car phone:
- (Note: > = male's voice, < = female's voice.)
-
- > Hi baby.
- < Hi, where are you?
- > Right by your house. I'm 5 minutes away. I'll be right over.
- < Huh? I was sleeping.
- > What?
- < I was sleeping. Wait.. did you say you were coming over?
- > Yeah, did you eat?
- < No, and I'm hungry too.
- > Well, we'll go out to a diner and have a nice dinner..
- < (interrupts) No! I have to take a shower. My hair is a mess! I can't go out
- like this!
- > Don't worry about your hair. You gotta have something to eat. It's late and
- < (interrupts) Well, my mother and I were going to come over your house later
- anyway. We have to wash some clothes.
- > Well why don't you and I get something to eat first. I'm hungry too. You wan
- to go to a diner or somewhere else?
- < No, my face isn't done. And my hair is a mess.. I have to take a shower...
- How about you bring over something from Roy Rogers'?
- > I hate Roy Rogers! Look, I'll be over in 5 minutes. I'll honk the horn. If
- you don't come out, just forget it, ok?
- < Ok.
-
- (End of conversation)
-
- As 2600 Magazine might say, "If this had been an actual conversation, looking
- at this article would be illegal."

- Some facts about listening in on fone calls:
-
- Cordless phones: 46.610 - 46.970
- IMTS (old style car phones): 152.510 - 152.810
- Airplane phones (base stations): 454.025 - 455.000
- Airplane phones (airplanes): 459.025 - 460.000
- Cellular phones (base stations): 870.000 - 890.000
- Cellular phones (base stations for extended use channels): 890.000 - 896.000

-
- Some of the older cordless phones using the frequencies marked by the <*>
- asterisk are paired with frequencies around 1.7 MHz. Listening to the 1.7 MHz
- side will yield both sides of the conversation.
- The best frequencies to monitor are the 46 MHz as they will repeat both sides
- of the conversation. Power output of both base and hand units are less than
- 100 Mw or 1/10 watt so the range is limited. Careful monitoring will produce
- some outstanding results. It is not uncommon to hear conversations up to a
- mile away.

- Wow! This issue turned out to be longer than I thought after all. Anyway, I'll
- leave you with a poem someone shared with the users on my bbs:
-
- He was found by the Bureau of Statistics to be
- One against whom there was no official complaint,
- and all the reports on his conduct agree
- That, in the modern sense of an old-fashioned word, he was a saint,
- For in everything he did he served the Greater Community.
- Except for the War till the day he retired
- he worked in a factory and never got fired,
- But satisfied his employers, Fudge Motors Inc.
- Yet he wasn't a scab or odd in his view,
- For his Union reports that he paid his dues,
- (Our report on his Union shows it was sound)
- And our Social Psychology workers found
- That he was popular with his mates and liked a drink.
- The Press are convinced that he bought a paper every day
- And that his reactions to advertisements were normal in every way.
- Policies taken out in his name prove that he was fully insured,
- And his Health-card shows he was once in a hospital but left it cured.
- Both Producers Research and High-Grade Living declare
- He was fully sensible to the advantages of the Installment Plan
- A phonograph, a radio, a car and a frigidaire.
- Our researchers into Public Opinion are content
- That he held the proper opinions for the time of year;
- When there was peace, he was for peace; when there was war, he went.
- He was married and added five children to the population,
- Which our Eugenist says was the right number for a parent of his generation,
- And our teachers report that he never interfered with their education.
- Was he free? Was he happy? The question is absurd:
- Had anything been wrong, we should certainly have heard.
