Dennis Bareis, OS/2 (http://www.ozemail.com.au/~dbareis/).
The free software and source code alone makes this a knockout site. Then there's the OS/2 bug list. And some obscure links. |

Judy's Warped World (http://www.gt-online.com/~bri).

This month's Duck Feather
Now that the 33-cent first class stamp has been authorized by the Postal
Rates Commission, it's time to reexamine how you pay for how you play.
Let's see, 15 stamps a month is $4.80 oops $4.95.
That's almost 60 quackeroos a year.
Email each of your "business partners" and ask if they take e*cash.
