Frequently Asked Questions (FAQS);faqs.028
4.2) Wie reserviere ich mir meinen Nickname?
Auf dem BITNET Relay geht das nicht. Auf dem IRC gibt es den
Nickserv; eine kurze Einfuehrung erhaelt man durch
/msg nickserv@service.de help
4.3) Wo kriege ich Bilder von Chattern her?
Es hat sich eingebuergert, dass auf RP's (siehe dort) Bilder
gemacht werden, die von den Fotographen dann auch gescannt und,
Einverstaendnis der Opfer vorausgesetzt, auf anonymen ftp - Servern zum
freien Zugriff freigegeben werden. Das wird ueblicherweise auf
de.talk.chat angekuendigt. Ausserdem gibt es seit neuestem die
Newsgroup de.alt.binaries.pictures.relay-party, wo solche Sachen auch
mal hingepostet werden.
4.4) Wie verschicke ich am schnellsten eine Datei an meine Chatpartner?
Einige IRC - Clients, unter anderem ircII fuer Unix, unterstuetzen
das dcc - Kommando; naeheres siehe /help dcc. Um eine Datei zu verschicken,
bietet man das File zum Abholen mit /dcc send nick filename ein, und der
Empfaenger holt sich dann mit /dcc get nick filename ab. Wenn es laengere
Textfiles sind, sollte man sie vorher komprimieren (mit compress unter UNIX).
4.5) Wass haben die @ und * neben dem H oder G bei der /who - Liste
im IRC zu bedeuten?
Das @ bedeutet, das die ensprechende Person auf dem
entsprechenden Kanal Channel - Operator (chanop, chop oder einfach auch
Opa) ist. Jeder, der einen neuen Kanal aufmacht, bekommt dieses Flag.
Ein solcher Benutzer ist privilegiert; er darf Leute vom Kanal werfen,
mittels des /kick - Kommandos und mit dem Kanal viele verschiedene Dinge
machen, wie zum Beispiel das Setzen eines neuen Themas durch nicht -
chanops verhindern, neue chanops ernennen, etc. All dies geschieht mit
dem /mode - Kommando, das ziemlich kompilziert ist.
Das * bedeutet, das es sich um einen IRC - Operator (oder in
neuerem Sprachgebrauch, Hausmeister) handelt. Diese Leute sind fuer das
reibungslose Funktionieren von IRC verantwortlich; sie haben technische
Funktion.

----------------------------------------
This is the list of frequently asked questions (and their answers) for
the newsgroup alt.fan.douglas-adams. There is biographical
information about Douglas Adams, a list of his books and their ISBN
numbers, as well as information about his boks and other fun stuff.
Where possible, pointers to existing information (such as books,
magazine articles, and ftp sites) are included here, rather than
rehashing that information again. Information is provided without
guarantee -- if you get stung using any of the information provided
here, or send off your personal fortune and are stuck, then I accept
no blame or responsibility. It's your own damn fault.
If you haven't already done so, now is as good a time as any to read
the guide to Net etiquette which is posted to news.announce.newusers
regularly. You should be familiar with acronyms like FAQ, FTP and
IMHO, as well as know about smileys, followups and when to reply to
email to postings.
This FAQ is currently posted to news.answers and alt.fan.pratchett.
All posts to news.answers are archived, and it is possible to retrieve
the last posted copy via anonymous FTP from pit-manager.mit.edu as

This FAQ was mostly written by Nathan Torkington, with numerous
contributions by readers of alt.fan.douglas-adams. Comments and
indications of doubt are enclosed in []s in the text. Each section
begins with forth dashes ("-") on a line of their own, then the

1 Biographical Information
In this section you will find information on Douglas Adams. The
information isn't very detailed, because of (a) a desire to respect
his privacy, and (b) you might as well buy "Don't Panic" anyway (see
the very start of the file for information on Don't Panic).
----------------------------------------
1.1 Who the heck is Douglas Adams
Douglas Noel Adams (DNA) was born in 1952. [Anything else we need to
know?]
----------------------------------------
1.2 What's this about the barrister?
After nearly a decade of saying in his blurbs that he was nearly
married to a lady barrister, on November 25 1991 Douglas Adams and
Jane Belson tied the knot in a quiet ceremony at Finsbury town hall in
London. Bad luck, ladies. They will live in Islington.
----------------------------------------
2 Bibliographical Information
In this section you will find descriptions of DNA's books, the
information you need to order any of them, and information about
Douglas Adams writing for Dr Who (not really *bibliographic*
information, but what are you going to do - kick down my door and
shoot me?).
The entries are in this format: %T means title, %A means author, %I
means imprint, %D means date, %I means ISBN number and %Z means a
comment.
----------------------------------------
2.1 What are the books about?
Buy them and find out. Essentially, all the "Hitchhiker's Guide To
the Galaxy" series form a trilogy in five parts about one man's
travels through the universe after (and before) the Earth is
accidentally destroyed. These have been reissued in various forms.
The Dirk Gently books form a loosely-bound detective series.
The Liff books are dictionaries of words, giving means to words which
previously spend their lives loitering about at the top of signposts,
and giving words to meanings which needed them. "Deeper" is an
expanded form of "Liff", with somem definitions changed, and others
omitted all-together.
"Last Chance To See" tells of his trip around the world, looking for
endangered species. Very funny, and very serious.

2.6 Young Zaphod Plays It Safe
The short-story "Young Zaphod Plays it Safe" originally appeared in
"The Utterly Utterly Merry Comic Relief Christmas Book", edited by
Douglas Adams and Peter Fincham. It was published by Fontana in Great
Britain in 1986. The story also appeared in the "More Than Complete
Hitchhiker's Guide".
----------------------------------------
2.7 Dr Who and Douglas Adams
Douglas (co)authored the shows "City of Death", "The Pirate Planet"
and "Shada". Shada was never screened. City of Death and Shada were
worked over and became "Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency".
He also wrote a treatment (plot synopsis) for a film called "Dr Who
and the Krikkitmen". It was never made into either a film or a TV
show, but most of the pertinent plot points reappeared in "Life, The
Universe and Everything."
"Shada" was finally released on video on 6/6/1992. [Order info?]
----------------------------------------
3 Douglas Adams and Computers
DNA definitely has a close association with computers. Here you will
find about his love for Macintoshes, computer games he has (and
hasn't) written, and computer magazine articles he has authored.
----------------------------------------
3.1 Macintoshes
Douglas Adams likes Macintoshes, and at one stage lived with one in
Islington (see the dedication to [?]). He says that computer have
completely changed the way he writes (he has gone from avoiding
writing by finding food to eat, to avoiding writing by reconfiguring
his Macintosh's operating system).
----------------------------------------
3.2 Computer Games
With Infocom's Steve Meretzky (who no longer works for Infocom after
their takeover by Mediagenic), he wrote "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the
Galaxy" adventure game. "Bureaucracy" was credited to "Douglas Adams
and The Staff of Infocom" - there were lots of Infocom people involved
(Jeff O'Neill, Dave Lebling, Fred Morgan and others).
The end sequence to the game "Hitchhiker's Guide" mentions a second
game called "The Restaurant at the End of the Universe", but this game
doesn't exist. Douglas Adams started to write it, as because
"Bureaucracy" had poor sales, Adams and Infocom dropped the project.
Infocom tried to revive the project later, but the virtual death of
Infocom in 1990 brought this idea to an end.
Douglas Adams also started work on another game, where the emphasis
was to be on creating a virtual reality in the adventure, but petered
out after his partner lost interest.
Meretzky is still writing computer adventure games for "Legend
Entertainment". Infocom only exists as a label for Activision, the
company having been closed in 1989. The games are available from
Virgin Mastertronic in "Infocom From Mastertonic" (a budget games
house in the UK). Their address is :
Customer Services
Virgin Mastertronic Ltd
16 Portland Road
London W11 2LA
Tel: 071 - 727 8070
It is also included in a package of 20 games called "The Lost
Treasures of Infocom", released by Activision. "Bureaucracy" is
available in "The Lost Treasures of Infocom II", also by Activision.
These packages should be orderable or purchasable from any decent
computer store :-)

----------------------------------------
5 Explanations
Not all of DNA's writing is easily grasped. This section includes
explanations of some of the trickier sections.
----------------------------------------
5.1 The Ending to "Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency"
From: bhack@mundil.cs.mu.OZ.AU (Brendan Hack)
Date: Tue, 12 Nov 1991 23:08:13 GMT
First of all you need to know something about Coleridge. There was
never a second part of the poem _Kubla Khan_. Yet, at the end of
Chapter 6 when The Director Of English Studies is reading _Kubla
Khan_ the book says `The voice (that of the director of english
studies) continues, reading the second, and altogether strange
part of the poem.'
In the book, _Kubla Khan_ has a second part. The book is not
actually set in our existence. It is set in an existence in which
the second part of _Kubla Khan_ exists. This second part of the
poem tells the ghost about the existence of the time machine and
how to travel back and stop the ship from exploding. As we well
know the explosion of the ship is what caused life to begin on
this miserable little planet of ours. When Dirk and Reg realised
this they simply went forward in time to when Coleridge was
writing the second part of _Kubla Khan_ and stopped him. Dirk just
interrupted him and talked so much that Coleridge forgot what the
second part was going to be about and therefore could not finish
it! This change of history sent reality back into our perspective
and the human race lived on (Yay, yippee!).
Quite simple really.
----------------------------------------
5.2 Young Zaphod Plays It Safe
[?]
----------------------------------------
6 Miscellaneous
This section has stuff that didn't really fit anywhere else.
----------------------------------------
6.1 Stuff
The phrase "the long dark teatime of the soul" appears in Chapter 1 of
"Life, The Universe and Everything". Wowbagger the Infinitely
Prolonged is described as being eventually ground down by the Sunday
afternoons, and "as you stare at the clock the hands will move
relentlessly on to four o'clock, and you will enter the long dark
teatime of the soul."
If you ring the Islington telephone number, you will get some people
who have nothing to do with Douglas Adams and who are very annoyed.
Don't do it.
Arthur plays Dire Straits' "Tunnel of Love" from their "Making Movies"
album to Fenchurch, in "So Long, And Thanks For All The Fish".
----------------------------------------
6.2 Number Games
Yes, 6 times 9 equals 54. Yes, 6 times 9 equals 42 in base thirteen,
and we don't want to know about the implications for the number of
fingers on cavemen.
The bit about monkeys was a reference to someone's comment that if you
get an infinite number of monkeys at typewriters, eventually one will
bash out a script to Hamlet. If you want to discuss probability,
quantum physics or anything else that has nothing to do with Douglas
Adams, bugger off to another group.
----------------------------------------
6.3 Other Authors
If you like Douglas Adams' writing, you might appreciate books by:
* Neil Gaiman
* Terry Pratchett
* Tom Sharpe
* P J O'Rourke
* P G Wodehouse
* Tom Holt
... but I offer no guarantees.
----------------------------------------
6.4 The Future
Having just released "Mostly Harmless", Douglas Adams says he wants to
do a TV series about the Universe and the stuff in it. He estimates
this will run around 12 episodes in length.
There is a video called "The Making of the Hitchhiker's Guide" in
progress, featuring all the original actors. They even found Marvin's
costume in a box in the BBC.
----------------------------------------
6.5 Related Electronic Information
PGG (Project Galactic Guide for long) accepts entries on real-life
subjects, as well as unreal-life subjects. A reader for the guide is
available, as vela.acs.oakland.edu:/pub/swbaker/guide.zip Don't forget
binary mode, ftp outside of business hours and contact
swbaker@vela.acs.oakland.edu if you have any questions.
Check out the newsgroup alt.galactic-guide, where PGG is alleged
to be happening. The person to contact is the Editor-In-Chief,
Supreme-God-Over-All-Beings and Leader-of-The-Hack, Paul Clegg
(cleggp@aix.rpi.edu). After long and protracted discussions on
which format is best for this, a decision was reached and I wasn't
interested enough to record it for posterity. Contact Paul for
information.
There is also a paper-based list, maintained by David Hodges. It
is used to raise money for charity and has been approved by
Douglas Adams. You can buy copies (for charity), it is very
large, and would be tremendously illegal (and most would find it
immoral) to put on the net. Contributions to this can be sent to
alm@doc.ic.ac.uk (remember to say they're for David Hodges as this
isn't his account).

Summary: This is a list of organisations active in drug law reform,
with information on how to contact them.

LIBERTY ACTIVISTS' LIST
v 1.13 12/1992
So you're sick of the "War on Drugs"? Here's an international
list of over 200 organisations which support drug law reform,
although most of them are in the US. Look for one in your area.
Please distribute this list widely, and send in any groups
which are not listed already.
There's an active group here for almost any taste. Joining
your favourite organisation is best, though if you're worried
about persecution, just send anonymous money or a letter of
appreciation. Take advantage of your democratic rights while
you still have some!
If you're already in a law reform organisation, you can use
this list to contact others with similar interests, and share
information or facilities. Just knowing that there are others
working on these issues can be a big morale booster.
The power of pro-liberty organisations can be multiplied many
times by fast and efficient communication, which spreads news
and promotes co-ordinated action. Electronic mail and
conferencing is the most efficient way to achieve these necessary
abilities. For example, this list doubled its size in eight
months of circulation over the Usenet. I strongly encourage
active groups and individuals to use this powerful technology.
This listing was originally kicked off with a list of groups
reproduced _with permission_ from the February, 1992 issue of
_High Times_ magazine (contact details at the end of the list).
Since then, it has grown considerably through the kindness of
those who have contributed additional entries, including Chris
Klausmeier, Macca Macpherson and Dave Thomson. Please reproduce
and distribute widely with this acknowledgment. Post it on
bulletin boards if you can.
PLEASE SEND NEW LISTINGS
I don't know any more about most of these groups, than what
appears here. If you know about other active groups not
listed here, or if any entries need correction, please e-mail
me at "aldis@kralizec.zeta.org.au" or "aldis@peg.apc.org",
or mail to the address below, for incorporation in future
editions of this list.
