There are around 15 people at peaks on non-Wednesdays now which is cool. But yeah, eastern time. And all undernet servers should have #MoxyFruvous. You'll find people use lotsa servers. AOL people are on washington.dc.us.undernet.org, so sometimes if there's predominantly AOL people on, it's fastest there. I usually use newyork.ny.undernet.org myself... - Chad (chad on IRC *grin*) ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 13 Aug 1998 21:23:22 GMT From: nafio@my-dejanews.com Subject: Re: Fw: F&F for C (was Re: FruCon II) In article <004701bd693c$c0922780$5997bdcd@life101>, "Ann Marie & Cameron" wrote: > >>Fruvous and Friends for Choice benefit show in Toronto > > > >Speaking of the F&F for C show, we have to find some way to make sure it > >doesn't have an age limit for this year! Is FruConII definitely going to centre around the F&F for C show again? I know it's considered horribly right-wing and all but going to that particular concert is against my own personal belief system. I enjoyed FruCon last year but it would have been nice to go to a Frushow afterwards with everyone.

I was thinking about this the other night during an IRC discussion about the upcoming shows in Northampton. Some of us (may) have much further to go than others, and may be travelling at least partway alone. So I thought we could come up with a list of good books to keep people occupied during travel :) Personal recommendations: 1)Fantasy/SF: anything by Melanie Rawn (especially the Dragon Prince and Dragon Star series), Issac Asimov, Piers Anthony, Douglas Adams or Robert Lynn Aspirin 2)Horror: Stephen King (though I'll admit I freaked Chrissy out a bit reading The Shining at the lodge we stayed at Sat. night) 3)Mystery: Agatha Christie!! (Some people might see her as a bit old fashioned, but she's my favourite mystery writer) Any other suggestions? :) Drea - -----== Posted via Deja News, The Leader in Internet Discussion ==----- http://www.dejanews.com/rg_mkgrp.xp Create Your Own Free Member Forum ------------------------------ Date: 13 Aug 1998 20:28:13 GMT From: Gruneberg Veronica J <6vjg@qlink.queensu.ca> Subject: Re:Canadia Customs Actually, I have seen pizza swimming... little backstroke across my plate.
