VNS TECHNOLOGY WATCH: [Mike Taylor, VNS Correspondent]
===================== [Littleton, MA, USA ]
Atmosphere Manager
Soft music and candlelight only begin to set the scene for a
perfect date if you have the Atmosphere Manager by Norm
Automation of Sunnyvale, CA. It can literally create the right
climate for romance, working, exercising, negotiating, or
sleeping. This window unit controls the air temperature,
humidity, amount of fresh air, direction of airflow, light,
fragrance and, if the room is snugly sealed, the air pressure.
Five settings adjust these variables for each activity. In
romantic mode, for example, the lights are dimmed by remote
light modulator, fresh air is reduced, the temperature and
humidity are increased slightly, and a soft breeze wafts a scent
called Rose and Rum through the air. settings for working alone
or collaborating with others modulate the temperature, humidity,
and light to keep you alert. The Atmosphere Manager will be
available in September for $3,995.

Alan Shepherd, one of the apollo astronauts, said during a press meeting:
"It's a very sobering feeling to be up in space and realize that one's
safety factor was determined by the lowest bidder on a government contract."

starbuck (Hoang H Tran):
I am going to use this section to keep a public record of the stuff I intend
to do in the near future. Yes, boys and girls. You've come to the right place
to get the latest news about my life and ambitions. (As if anyone is really
going to read this.)
New Info. about my life:
It took an old lady digging through the trash for used bottles to remind me
that life is tough. I am not so bummed out about doing nothing with my life
anymore.
My ambitions:
ride 25 mph for 1 hour straight
learn to swim 4 lengths of the pool
do a successful flying back round house kick
finish my urop
