STRAIGHT TALK FROM THE SYSTEM OPERATOR

 STRAIGHT TALK  FROM THE SYSTEM OPERATOR

By the programmer  of  Pyroto  Mountain

                --*--


If you've made it this high up, I think

I can safely assume that you are enjoy-

ing  Pyroto  Mountain.   I am  happy to

know that!


However, at this point,  you should ask

yourself if  "the  best things  in life

are free".   Well, they  CAN  be!   You

have been having fun, here, and that is

the most important thing.


However,  I still have to pay my bills.

And one of them is my  phone bill!   In

order to run Pyroto Mountain,  I've got

to pay $10.50 each month to pay for the

phone line.


If you'd  like to  help  preserve  this

Mountain,  I'm sure you won't  hesitate

to send in a small contribution to keep

the magic alive!


The  suggested contribution is  $10.50.

(Guess how I arrived at  THAT  figure?)

If you'd like to help out,  the address

is:


 --------- PINNACLE SOFTWARE ---------

 P.O. Box  163,  Cartierville  Station

 Montreal,  Quebec,  Canada,   H4K 2J5

 -------------------------------------


Please  send  a cheque or  money-order,

rather than  sending  cash.   You never

know about the mail, do you?


For those who help me run this service,

I extend my heart-felt thanks.

Evidence supporting quantum information processing in animals

              Evidence supporting quantum            information processing in animals                    James A. Donald                    1068 Fulton Av                    Sunnyvale, CA 94089-1505                    USA I show that quantum systems can rapidly solve some problems for which finite state machines require a non- polynomially large time. This class of problems is closely related to the class of problems that animals can solve rapidly and effortlessly, but are intractable for computers by all known algorithms. 1. Introduction      Animals, including very simple animals, can rapidly and effortlessly perceive objects, whereas computers take nonpolynomial time to do this by all known algorithms [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]. Our persistent inability to emulate perception gives reason to doubt the current paradigm and to look for an alternative paradigm.      Penrose[7] and many others [8, 9, 10] argue from practical considerations, Godel's theorem, and

ARMIES OF CHAOS

                          ARMIES OF CHAOS -      Before anyone proposes more gun control, he or she should know  about a simple, deadly weapon 4 times as powerful as Dirty Harry's  legendary .44 Magnum -- and at least twice as concealable -- that  _can't_ controlled.        This simple, deadly weapon can be made by anyone -- even a  child -- with unpowered hand tools in an hour's time using $5 worth  of materials, most of which are available around the house anyway.   In traditional form it's reusable an unlimited number of times, and  modern plastics have rendered its disposable version electronically  undetectable.  You can clear a room with such a weapon (more of a  hand-held directional grenade than a gun -- sort of a recycleable  Claymore mine) and it's just one of hundreds of similar time-proven  designs.        Complete instructions for building this simple, deadly weapon  could be given in half the space I'm using here and not require a  single illustrat
