Многое происходит в нашей жизни не так, как мы планируем, иNot all of our actions are ideal. We are only what can
exist, but we can give life to others. Give new life
to those who have not seen it, and to give eternal memory to those who
lost her forever...
ASCii - a little strict, but at the same time intriguing
name. What does it portend, and what is our role in it?
We announce the beginning of two months of preparation for the
ASCii'02 DemoParty, which will take place on April 28, 2002 in the city
Izhevsk.
Probably many people know about the tragedy that took place in our
circles.
Death of Andrei Smirnov, whom you might know as Ded
Smirnoff/PoS/PCCC.
Unfortunately, all PoS members and Andrey’s relatives are unable to
even erect a monument to emy, which is very difficult for me to write about...
That is why we decided to hold a party in tribute to
Andrey.
No, don't think that you need to do something specific,
simply if you agree to transfer all your cash prizes to the fund
purchasing a monument to Andrei, then we ask you for your mercy.
Each winner will receive prizes and souvenirs...
All fundscollected for participation and entry fees
at the party they will go to the fund. The exception will be sponsorship for
holding a party.
Believe me, it’s not easy for us to ask you this, but please understand us
That's right, sometimes in life there are situations when there is no other choice
no.
We have no one else to count on...
If you want to dedicate your work to Andrey, we are ready
provide you with any information... Addresses below.
