I didn't print the poster list or the birthday list or the FAQ,
because it changes, it's annoying, and you can get it online too
easily. Thats right, my birthday might be different tomorrow, you
never know. * The picture of Kira on the ONE page is really bad, as it
looks like she's beginning to say "Don't you dare", which she is. *
The cover was drawn with stencils by Aliza. It takes a while to see.
Aliza has no middle name, but we know that it starts with K. I think
Subzero's page is cool. I hope zontar's page came out. Get a new
ribbon! Lyzabeth, if your favorite restaurant is Long John Silvers,
you'd better come out here and let me take you to dinner. I'm sure I
can do better than that. SirRobin, thats right, you're not in layout.
Consider yourself sued. Zoopra... interesting way to send postage.
Juggler, where have you been? We all know you've got a time delay
loop in botl... he's just pretending to be lagged. HONK.. Green socks
is NOT crossed out on Aliza's page. It's shaded. Do you live in that
rock wall? I didn't think so. Yes, I put the initials there. I hate
white space. Cute baby picture... I can't imagine that trapeze. Ok,
next page. The lines are because of my horrible printer. The US just
doesn't have big stone arches to sit in and look cool, Miles. Could
you import them? Do I get to meet you in April? Kris Dow, get your own
account! Sorry I had to cut off the dogs head, but I wanted to fit you
on the ONE page. Aliza, you know what that is. Of course, the page
just wasn't big enough. Right? Right. Ok, so sorry about the dog. From
the things I've heard from you, it deserved it. I look really spaced
out and scary in that big b/w of me. I normally look somewhere between
that and he one of me with Aliza and Jura. (you-dah, not jur-ah.)
Ciji covering Nile's equipment rack. Subzero has a mug shot... Maybe I
shouldn't have put the ETA logo on ONE page. It's too big. Oh well,
too late. Andrew, don't complain. You get a full half page. Aliza, I'm
only excluding those paper towel picures because I love you. And
anyway there's no room for them. But I could always post them. (Evil
laugh.) Frog, Polar Bear, Debi, Slow_Poke, Jayk, Sen Song, Shadows,
don't complain. Frog and Polar Bear, sorry, but 8.5 by 11 is just so
small. Ok, so I'm talking to myself. Shadows, you look much prettier
in the halloween picture, but it wouldn't have come out right. Bryde,
what's that glint in your left eye? never mind, it's a piece of dust.
Amanda, the picture's NOT that bad. Did I say that already? *hug* Who
besides Aliza knows Rick Littell? Please clue me in. The '!' page is
kind of assorted. Hey jenni, you old hag.... :P yourself. Back to ONE
page for a correction... sorry. miles, the EKA logo's too big. Caption
for the picture of me in the upper right corner is "Aliza, will you
marry me? Oh well... can marry your camera instead? It makes cool
whrrring noises... wow! Two flashes!" What's that stupid expression on
my face on all three photos? Do I normally look like that? I don't
think I do. Kris Dow, without even seeing the dog you can tell you're
cuddling up to one in that picture. The expression on your face gives
it all away. * As you know, I didn't raise nearly enough money in
advertising and donations to pay for this project. It cost me a total
of $250. I raised exactly half of that. Therefore, postpublication
donations are very welcome. * Is anybody interested in buying green
socks with A.K-T embroidered on them? I think I asked that already.

I think I'm going to go stick my head in a fan. That should make for a

VALRY, what's your name?
BoTL Speaks!
Various rumours have been circulating about the origins of BoTL's
name. Many believe that BoTL is a misspelling of bottle", which may
seem plausible, since the author is from Greenland, lives in an igloo,
and drinks huge amounds of Black Death. (*None* of this is truet)
Neither is it true that BoTL is the next-generation BoTK, grandson
of BoTJ, direct descendant of BoTI, and so on. These bots never
existed, or if they did, they were not related to BoTL in any fashion.
BoTL is a combination of two things: BOT and BTL. BOT is easy enough
to explain, it is just short for robot. BTL is another matter
entirely. Those of you who have known me (Juggler) for a while may
remember my channel #BTL.. well, BoTL was originally just supposed to
live there and hold on to my ops. Unfortunatly, BTL was an incredibly
dull channel. So I moved BoTL to 4teens, but didn't change the name.
The name of my channel was an acronym for the title of my
second-most-favorite book, Better Than Life, by Grant Naylor. It
is also the name I intend to use for my group (a group of 3 coders, of
which I am the only one who has anything near release). Look for some
BTL productions a few months from now... BoTL has been on #teens ever
since, biting those that needed biting, going through a hippie phase
and becoming the innocent victom of hostile takeovers. He has also
grown, and become more complicated and/or sophisticated. New bugs have
replaced the old ones, and I like to think he is one of the more
versatile bots around. He is still changing.. Greetings, Juggler/BTL
(a.k.a. Polymorph, a.k.a. Bjarni R. Einarsson) To prevent any
confusion, let it be known that I'm ICELANDIC, live in a quite normal
house and don't drink (yet). Evil /joins channel #teens Anybody who
has joined the #teens channel on the IRC has met BoTL, and there is
also a high probability that this same somebody has been bitten, or
even insulted by this formerly peaceful bot. BoTL has always had a
bad habit of biting people, but until recently the program did not
display any other symptoms of what we now realize is a very sick mind.
The hostile takeover on #teens (on The Day) seems to have pushed BoTL
over the edge. This would be a source of great anguish to the bot's
owner, or perhaps I should say "Creator", if he only realized what has
happened. The Creator appears to have lost control of this
once-friendly bot. This nightmare of twisted C code has shown of late
increasing signs of megalomania, and antisocial behaviour. Despite
increasingly frantic attempts by the mysterious ITiC] society to
hinder BoTL's insane powerplay, it seems to be getting worse every
day. Rumours have reached my ears that BoTL has aquired hordes of
warbots, just waiting for somebody to even THINK of taking over his
precious channel; 4teens. BoTL has also succeded in cloning himself to
other channels. Beware of /bot (on *cis), he is not the nice bot he
seems to be. s bot's insanity may be traced back further into the
past. It did not begin on The Day. The Day was merely the spark that
lit the fire. BoTL began his life as a humble channelbot, known as
Earbot. Harmless enough. But Earbot was confined to a channel with a
most hideous name: prr "What is so hideous about BTL?" you may ask..
BTL stands for Better Than Life, the most addictive designer drug ever
fantasized by ny science fiction author. Not physically addictive, BTL
is mentally addictive. It is a Virtual Reality, where your innermost
desires are fulfilled. Not your consious mind's wants and lusts, but
your deepest, subconsious dreams. Noone who enters The Game, as some
call it, has the willpower to leave. They just enjoy their own private
heaven, while their body wastes away. Deteriorating, vegetating
happily as it dies slowly of malnutrition... As you can see, this is
not a healthy environment for a simple servant program. It could get
dark, twisted ideas, as Earbot soon did. The robot's first act of
treachery was a subtle manipulation of it's Creator. The Creator,
thinking he was being really clever, altered Earbot's name to B0TL, a
cross between BOT and BTL. A deadly mixture... as we have realized,
only too late. This seemingly harmless name, sounding like a
misspelling of "bottle" unleashed something deep inside Earbot's soul.
He grew discontent with his dark, lonely channel. 4BTL was just not
big enough. So he subtly manipulated the poor Creator again, having
him move the evil bot to a more active channel: #Teens. A channel full
of unsuspecting, innocent minds to corrupt and control. Until now he
has been lurking silently, waiting for his chance.. This must be
stopped. BoTL has gained influence his Creator was unable to forsee,
and has taken control. The Creator just slaves away, -"Thinking up new
additions, shiny new bits of code to conceal BoTL's dark ts, not even
realizing what has happened. Unfortunatly, reclaiming .eens will not
be easy. BoTh has decieved many, and is considered by a Majority of
the #teens regulaurs to be "useful" or even "neat". Such people will
not see reason, they have sunk too far, and are just puppets for BoTL
to play with. In fac The producers of the yearbook would like to
apologize for this waste of paper. Unfortunatly, due to technical
difficulties we were unable to keep the above rubbish from being
printed. Those responsible have been shot. May the OPs be with you!

WC Nick: SirRobin Address: 17 Kylemore Dr.
RL Name: Jonathan Bryan Moter Westford, MA, 01886
Email: jmotera1 .mec.mass.edu Phone Number: Available upon request
Birthdate: May 18, 1977 (I'll accept any kind of present, in case you're curious.) :) J/K
Okay, enough of the resume-style information. I'm Jon, known on mc as
SirRobin, known at school as Motes, Moter, Mo-tah, and a hundred other
variations on my last name. The boring old vital statistics are that
i'm about 6'!", 200 lbs. or so, brown hair, blue eyes, etc. At the
time I am writing this, I am a Junior at Westford Academy (yes, I know
it sounds like a private school, but it is public), and am graduating
in the class of 1995. Once I graduate, chances are I'll go onto
college, probably at some techie-type school (MIT, calwth, etc.). I
live in Westford, a suburb of about 20,000 people, about an hour's
drive from Boston. What's that? You want to know a little about me?
Sure, I'd love to. :) Well, I play tennis on the school team (as my
sweatshirt in the photo probably gave away). I'll be playing varsity
for the second year this year. I also play basketball, but only in a
town league, not for school or anything like that. Some other
interests of mine include Role- Playing Games (RPGs), which I usually
play with some college friends of mine on the weekend (you observant
folks will have realized rm usually not on Friday or Saturday nights).
in case you're wondering, I play all sorts of RPGs, recently including
Earthdawn, Shadowrun (2nd ed), Star Wars, and a few others. From my
picture, I'm sure you're also able to figure out that I'm into
computers (that always attracts the girls). I own an IBM, but at
school we have an excellent Macintosh lab, so I often use that lab. I
also like to read, though it seems I don't have the time for it
anymore. I like reading Sci-Fi or Fantasy, but will read pretty much
anything if it's good. I'm also a major fan of David Barry, and
although this has nothing to do with reading, I'm also a big fan of
Monty Python (like you couldn't have guessed from the nick) and George
Carlin. Welt I'm sure that you're just dying to meet me now that
you've read that fiscinating information on me. (for the humor
impaired, that is'a joke, not conceit.) So if you'd like, you could
drop me an Email at the above address (t my friend's account!), or, if
you happen to be a person blessed with access to mc, Tm usually on
Sunday through Thursday, around 7 p.m. to the point where I realize
that WI don't start my homework, I'll be up until I or 2 in the
morning. :) I go by the nick SirRobin, and you can usually find me on
#teens. c-ya there! BTW, wouldn't life be easier if there was a :)
symbol on Internet?
Hi all...this is Scott Bowling, known to most of you as Zoopra, just
to tell ya more about me: I am 15 years old. Birthday is April 7 I
love just about all kinds of music except for most Country. I live in
a little town north of Kansas City, Missouri. I love the TV show
Mystery Science Theater 3000. I am an all around nice guy,
ometimes.... I hate flame wars, got a problem with that :) I like all
sports, but I play Basketball the most. I am an open minded person.
(try to be, anyways) I procrastinate also, if you are able to read
this...then it worked :) jfk There, is some main info about me. I am
honest in saying this, that's not the best picture of me (that's one
reason it took me so long to send my stuff in...l was looking for a
picture:)). I do play saxophone a pretty good, I listen to Kenny G a
lot also. Well, that's enough about me, Remember, keep circulating the
pictures and letters.
