fmmoore (Festus Moore):
This is specifically for you Dipesh (since you're probably the only one
I know who'll try to read it.)
Plan:
To find out how Dipesh Navsaria can read my plan, considering the fact
that in order to read my plan our OLC's told me that a person needed to
attach my filesystem (which is impossible for Mr. Navsaria, because ihe
is at a remote location.) I plan to discover his method by infiltrating
bu-pub, logging into the root directory, and hopefully trashing it in
the process. Thank you.

The cause of universal education, which has already enlisted in
its service an army of dedicated people from every faith and nation,
deserves the utmost support that the governments of the world can lend
it. For ignorance is indisputably the principal reason for the
decline and fall of peoples and the perpetuation of prejudice. No
nation can achieve success unless education is afforded all of its
citizens. Lack of resources limits the ability of many nations to
fulfill this necessity, imposing a certain ordering of priorities.
The decision-making agencies involved would do well to consider giving
first priority to the education of women and girls, since it is
through educated mothers that the benefits of knowledge can be most
effectively and rapidly diffused throughout society. In keeping with
the requirements of the times, consideration should also be given to
teaching the concept of world citizenship as part of the standard
education of every child.
A fundamental lack of communication between peoples seriously
undermines efforts towards world peace. Adopting an international
auxiliary language would go far to resolving this problem and
necessitates the most urgent attention.

BODY POLITIC
This week President Bush told _Time_ that he had a feeling in his "gut"
that Saddam Hussein would withdraw from Kuwait before war. That's
better than last month, when he said that Saddam might "get his ass
kicked." (How fortunate we all are that Saddam resisted the temptation
to up the ante in the language war by threatening to kick Bush in the
balls. Even the US Congress could not be expected to take such an
assault on the national masculinity lying down.) But now Bush's gut
tells him that Saddam "will get out of there," even though "that flies
in the face" of what some Arab leaders tell him. Students of political
anatomy suggest that the real possibility of peace lies in Bush's index
finger, which he holds periodically in the wind to see which way US and
world opinion blows. It's almost enough to make one nostalgic for the
days when Presidents claimed to worry about our hearts and minds.
