Printed? For the Internet...???

What are they going to do...print it and then scan it into gif files
for posting on a Web Server...???

What is going to happen to the 52 Meg file of committee notes...?
Nixon is dead, they can't get him to erase the tape...:)

And more stuff deleted...

You know Jim.  You really disapointed me.  I thought you could at least
wait until after the end of April togbet back up on your high horse.  Or
would that be a high chair?  Can't tell from here.

This sounds like a great idea...especially since several people have asked
that you provide some information about C+@.

We are reaching the "end of April"....
 ...has anyone received their DRAFT notice yet...?
...is there going to be a "lottery" to see who is chosen...?

Will the notices be for the ISO army or the ANSI marines?

Are there any exemptions? Will people join the National Guard to
 avoid the DRAFT...?

Are U.S. citizens moving to Canada to avoid the DRAFT...?
...or are Canadian citizens moving to the U.S. to avoid the DRAFT...?
...does anyone know how to..."avoid the DRAFT"...?

Is it true that you can join the "navy" and be based in Monterey, CA
 or Hawaii and avoid the DRAFT...?

Have the members of the "navy" really been given their DRAFT notices...
 ...early, because they had to leave port and will have no
 ...ability to respond until they reach Japan in November...?

Is it really true that AT&T is preparing large ads that say...
 ..."You Will...use C++"...?
 ...or "Uncle Bjarne Wants YOU"...?

Have the official words to the song "American The Beautiful" really been
 changed to end with...
  ...."from C to shining C++"...?

Has anyone been following the Department of Justice activities...?
 ...has anyone figured out what is going on...?
  ...is this the quiet before the storm...?
 ...it seems like ANSI and ISO have disappeared...?
 ...did they ever really exist...?

Should 6 or 8 of us publish a DRAFT standard for C+@ and a "standard"
 class library with 350 tested and proven classes (including
 a compiler that is written in C+@ and actually compiles the
 language...what a concept)...? Should we call this the DRAFT
 standard even though no one has approved such a label...? (except
 maybe 6 or 8 people)...are there more than 6 people working on
 the C++ DRAFT Standard...?

Is the C++ ANSI Standard a "hoax"...?

This is the "end of April"...has anyone seen or heard anything on the
 ...DRAFT...?

Is this "the end"...or the beginning...?
