Archive Update for September 1994 ::::::: Archivist's note: Isn't the Internet getting obnoxious? ::::::: Almost everything that you find on the information ::::::: highway these days is roadkill..... The Rec.Motorcycles.Reviews Archives (and World Famous Llama Emporium) contains a Veritable Plethora (tm) of bike (and accessories and trip/road) reviews, written by rec.moto readers based on their own experiences. These invaluable gems of opinion (highly valued for their potential to reduce noise on the list) can be accessed via World Wide Web, anonymous FTP, Email server or by personal request. In addition, there is a wide variety of bike images to look at. If you are interested in submitting a review of a bike that you own(ed) or a report of a trip that you have taken, PLEASE DO! There is a template of the format that the reviews are kept in (more or less) included after the current review index. For those who have Internet access but are unsure of how anonymous FTP works, an example script is available on request. Review submissions/questions: rmr@ftp.cecm.sfu.ca WWW Server: http://www.cecm.sfu.ca/RMR_home.html Anonymous FTP: ftp.cecm.sfu.ca (134.87.46.67) under ~ftp/pub/RMR RMR Email archive server: rmrftp@ftp.cecm.sfu.ca General Email archive server: ftpmail@ftp.cecm.sfu.ca Road/ride reports: anon11af@nyx.cs.du.edu (Bruce Clarke) or drop off at RMR ftp site NOTE: There is a difference in the name for submitting/requesting reviews and using the RMR Email archive server (ie. the suffix "ftp"). NOTE: There are currently two distinct Email servers: One is specific to the RMR Archives and returns only text reviews ("rmrftp"). To get started with this Email server, send an Email message to rmrftp@ftp.cecm.sfu.ca with a line containing only "send help". The other is the general anonymous FTP archive Email server. It accesses all the same files and many others besides. It is capable of sending back the images in the RMR Archives. To get started with it, send a message to ftpmail@ftp.cecm.sfu.ca with a single line only containing the word "help". Ride hard, wride fast, write reviews... --- _ ___ 'gards, \\ / ___\ \\(=/___ Loki Jorgenson \/ ___/ node: loki@cecm.sfu.ca Keeper of the Reviews (KotR) / / ftp: ftp.cecm.sfu.ca CECM, Simon Fraser University / // \ fax: (604) 291-5614 Burnaby, B.C.
