Try contacting people at the University of Puerto Rico. I know they are trying
to get some kind of UWInet going...

Barbara Bush: a chronologically gifted, differently interesting, domestic
incarceration surviving member of the mutant albino genetic-recessive global
minority.-- _QW_'s ``politically correct'' description of the First Lady.
This is my first post on this bb. Some of the stuff seems kinda cool. Others
sound like a set of very lonely foreigners...
I am Carnegie Mellon University and an alma mater of UWI St. Augustine.
I would
like to get working e-mail addresses also. I received some a while back from a
public ftp site, but only the ones for Puerto Rico were working.
A reply, public or private will be fine.
T'was nice posting.
UWI Mona is on line, but not yet in real time. They're putting a
supercomputer on line shortly -- it may be already up -- so material
from Jamaica may appear on usenet shortly. You might try sending e-
mail to postm...@uwi.edu.jm
UWI St Augustine is on-line, but I don't have the address.
On another note: while the Mona Library is still in the card
catalogue age, St Augustine has a computerised catalogue (and too
few terminals! can't have everything) which operates at the
approximate speed of cold molasses.

Well yu know sey sooner or later hermits run haffi run tings (Are you a
ex-hermit Lashley).

PS -For those of you who are puzzled a hermit is/was a resident of Canada Hall,
UWI, St. Augustine. Well known for our prowess in and out of the lecture
hall-:)
Whoa! are there C-Hall hermits (or gogs!) on this net? Identify yourselves!
Actually things have changed since I lived on Canada Hall ('82 - '84) -
the dorm is now co-ed and there is little 'grubbing' (both of which could be
good things!). Man, I still remember MY grubbing!

Well you know what they say.. curiosity killed the cat. Prowess in sports and
social activities of course-:) To be a "hermit" embodied a philosophy of
helping your fellow hermits, which accounted for why we used to walk off with
70% of the engineering prizes even though we were much maligned as campus
wastrels and layabouts (unfounded).
Plus of course a certain mystique which came in handy on occassions, like...
but nah that would be telling. BTW Skamp don't really send out too much
positive vibes either, but I wont ask how that came about-:)

Matta Bean, a hermit name I haven't heard for yonks. It was an ironic
reference to my penchant for sleeping out the course (1.5 terms). Of course if
I was doing the lime course Indus eng I could sleep till just before the
exams-:)

Yo France,
I was on the hermitage from '83 -'86, so I should have known you. What was
your hermit name. As to reduced grubbing, I have mixed feelings about that.
Is the dorm now co-ed? In my second year there was an attempt to make top
floor north female. The whole thing about grubbing hall-life, "working", etc.
caused admin to back off. I still have some interesting cartoons drawn from
that period in a file somewhere.
Lashley could probably drop some draft on that.
McBean
No, no. Sooner or later, Irvinites haffi run tings. Yu no seet? An
as fi di prowess sinting... Is we dat have it, an not oonoo.
The question is, how much time did you spend in Trinity Hall?
One year in particular, a raid on Trinity got really nasty: A Flesh attacked
some hermits and had to be thoroughly disciplined. Brethren, Dem kidnapp the
flesh and took her to C-Hall. But that particular Dawta had a problem with
mankind generally.
At about that time too, there was raid on Milner Hole that reportedly did $'000s
in damages. This was in retaliation for the kidnapping of a C-Hall man.
Bwoy, those were the days....
P.C.
Formerly of T.F.S.
Standard Protest:
Eh! dis was a FIRM hermit here - me nuh had no dealings with Trinity Hall!
Reality:
OK, OK, so I was probably a gog - I thought I screeched it well!
Robert
No dealings with Trinity Hall? Hmm...
Use your imagination...

This requires further elucidation! (It's a pity that St Augustine
has no equivalent of the Bastille; many a victim of Mona has made
the fall of that institution a personal goal).
