In a perfect world, S-max and Andrew.BAS would be
mission commanders on the space shuttle, but due to the
ineptitude of Fate, the computer hardware engineer and the
programmer wind up working for a government defense
contractor instead. When they lose their jobs, thanks to
the hardware hacker's shenanigans, they start a high-tech
company.
"The Adventures of Lone Wolf Scientific" is a bi-weekly
chronicle of a computer startup where technological
innovation never comes without a measure of chaos. In the
coming months, you'll meet S-max, Lone Wolf Scientific's
Macchiavellian Head of Hardware who plots to change the
world with his Rube Goldbergish inventions, his soft-spoken
programmer sidekick, Andrew.BAS, who names all his programs
after successful Apollo flights, and Congressman Boris Q.
Popinrath, a technology gunho politician who finds in Lone
Wolf Scientific the only reason he can give constituents to
re-elect him.
"The Adventures of Lone Wolf Scientific" is an
electronically syndicated series. New installments appear
every two weeks (barring any misadventures on the part of
the author) on better computer bulletin boards and
electronic online services everywhere.
You'll find the latest installments of "The Adventures
of Lone Wolf Scientific" in:
Exec-PC's "Free to Unregistered Callers
Software Collection" and "Mahoney
Collection"
414/789-4210, PC Pursuitable

Adventures of LWS
CompuServe's "Witsig" Forum, in Library

GEnie's "Telejoke" Roundtable, Library #2,

may not appear there until several days after their release
date. The best place from which to download episodes is
Exec-PC.) If you would like "The Adventures of Lone Wolf

You may upload episodes of "The Adventures of Lone Wolf

hardcopy or electronically--to friends, colleagues, loved
ones, whomever you wish. ("The Adventures of Lone Wolf
Scientific" go particularly well on company LANs.)
You may not charge anyone anything for your reproducing
efforts except maybe for an occasional cup of coffee or a
doughnut--you may demand a fee of one of those.
The only responsibility that will be placed on your
weary shoulders is the request that whenever you
distribute episodes of "The Adventures of Lone Wolf
Scientific," you distribute them with this file,
WELCOME.LWS, and the accompanying file EPISOD.LWS which
lists all previous episodes and the order in which they
first appeared.
"The Adventures of Lone Wolf Scientific" is copyrighted

small empty spaces in newsletters. Simply mail a blank

I hope that you enjoy "The Adventures of Lone Wolf
Scientific". Writing them has been one of the great joys of

yours.
