Post scriptum - a story about the plight of the issue of the newspaper.

               POST SCRIPTUM



(C) SirX


   Well, now, dear reader, you
stumbled upon a section which did not
was, and about which there is no mention in
description of the sections. What is here? Explanations
with or without cause. Too much to
tell and explain, and so few words, and
Shell puts restriction on the size
text. But it is necessary. Let's go.

   Many might say x # $ are you so
long with a newspaper, including, probably,
Those who talked with me after # 41.
And here is where the fun begins.
In fact, my room was ready for nearly 2.5
years ago. That's it. Excuses
wrong, but my guilt is not enough.
The material was sent Vel'u back in June 2003
years, after which Carpet embraced some
apathy - all these months I have worked hard
kick all of whom could - Sergius'a
Puzzler'a, Vel'a that he kicked
Sergius'a, but it brings no
result. Tried to kick the SP even after
Ash'a - not getting through. Sergei then leave,
then at the tourist center, it has a repair 'etc. Well
and, as you might guess, some promises -
tomorrow, this week, next month. A
Then this wicked man just disappeared
- Surrounded himself AONami (at home
phone, the mobile phone and so it is) and
simply stopped responding to phone calls saw
my room and I'm not so rich, so
nazvanivat with different numbers.

   So time went on, in such a mess.
Proceedings of the newspaper on several occasions killed,
but thanks to my heroism;) every time
I pulled them from a dead screw.

   In the past (just in case I specify -
2004), I had called in a carpet for a couple of
days as guests. Perhaps the only Vel was
more or less pleased with my arrival. SP only
refused to meet. That's it.

   Then gradually began to worry
The authors, who helped me to do a newspaper
materials, graphics, music, and I answered
extremely honest, that stuff is ready, but
produce none.

   There were suggestions to help (from
coders), but it is all useless and not
resulted. Sources SP, of course squeezed,
although he has long been scored on the spectrum and that
floppy disk, and yes even 5.25 it was just not
needed. Make a new shell, I refused
and will reject categorically. Pilot
such as it began and grew, and now he
remains only to age, which implies
If only minor changes were made. Well
if only one thread will not offer me
any thread of a super-duper shell:) But this is
from the realm of fantasy.

   Several times I was trying to put
material as is, just an archive, without
every shell and every time I have something
stopped. You should have lasted a sluggish
outrage, but an interesting happened here.
Help came an unexpected, and so
interesting. Once years ... Yes Dunno
how much back when I started to spec
coexist with MS, I'm just like any
spektrumist that accrues to the PC started
search emulsion monolingual. Found. Posted
the author expressed his enthusiasm and
wishes. And somehow all this has resulted in
powerful correspondence. Then this man
disappeared. And suddenly I have recently learned that
he again took up the emulator. Email him
changed, but I still managed to go again
at him. Communication was resumed, and then
once in the correspondence I complained to him
their problem, and the man said
scratch paper and try to help. AND
Here it finally happened. The pilot again on the air.
And I am glad of it immensely! It was a pity
throw out their labor, the labor of others to
trash. It only remains to add that
situation saved the author, IMHO, the best
emulator on the pc cake Unreal Speccy,
Mr. SMT! That he is the very
my old friend. And that's it to me
I want to say just inhumanly
thank you so much! Helping to survive spec
"In a strange land" and he saved another newspaper. AND
I think that thanks is not just from me,
but on the other spektrumistov.

   And as a conclusion of several
moments:

   1. Issue came out exactly the way he
was ready to 2,5 years ago. Improved the only
The authors, in accordance with the realities of time
and removed absurd inscription constellation.
Stupid. I do not know if now alive And this
Association, but even if so, I'm into it
has never been, just as it was not included
in any other group. Also removed
other such trifles. Nothing
the rest of me I did not let a lot
now reads funny. So be it.

   2. Will it still continued release
newspaper. I do not know. Look at your
reaction, gentlemen readers. In the presence of
materials and using SMT, it can be
possible. The future will show.

   3. Is it worth the FAQ SP? I do not even know.
Decide for yourself. Initially, of course, I firmly
it hurt for such bases. But in
Eventually all good things that are well
ends.

Bye!
