     Of course, the 'dirty little secret' in all of this nonsense about
copyrighted material is that there is nothing of value to copyright. You're not
going to get anywhere suing for damages if there are no damages.

     The only art, originality, and creativity involved in the whole business
is the work of Dr. Tom in putting it all together and coming up with something
that's interesting and entertaining to read. His report catches you up in the
preparations, lets you know who attended, and tells you what happened. Just
maybe some readers will decide it looks like fun and make plans to attend KFest
2k.

     All of which kind of makes you wonder: why would anyone interested in
promoting Kansas Fest object? If _someone_ doesn't promote the thing, next
year's "crowd" at Avilla College will look more like Saturday detention than an
Apple II event.

     Anyway, the GSWV KF exclusive is now "removed" to USENET and can be
accessed on deja.com -- for easy reading, click "get all 13 segments". There's
a handy link at http://home.swbell.net/rubywand/A2FAQs1START.html .
