quite some time since we had this thing.
but now it's here. this chapter contains
things that i have been snapping up
since the last issue. with or without
permission.

              - -- --- -- -

the first one to get his voice heard is
calypso who want to say some words to
his contacts and lost contacts.
the text is taken from a note written by
him.


----------------------------------------
               so be it.
           your god returns!

     CALYPSO OF AMNESIA+SILICON LTD.

returns to your screen with again a
public note!

some weeks ago i wrote a note like this
but somehow i managed to loose it,so
here is a new one,with some more
specific information!

yes, this note is again to inform you
about a lost of contacts!!

as you know i have been trading for
several years now, and gained over 225
contacts at this point!
due to this, a lot of mail arrives at
my house, and passes the watching eyes
of the so feared post-men!
now,these people are not too stupid here
and so they discovered that you are
cheating your stamps to me!

due to this fact they started to keep
the cheated packs, which causes that i
wont get the packs,and that result
again in the fact that you won't hear
from me. sounds easy or!?
a little example is that r!b/amnesia
sended me a disc with a new amnesia
production on thursday, 17th of march.
it never arrived at my house.. a week
before that he also send.. it never
arrived!

a good friend of mine, styx, is having
quite an amount of contacts i have
aswell,and in his notes i discovered
that he got disx from people i was
supposed to get disx from too. there
were even notes from that person to
me. (example: jazzcat/legend)

          so do me this favour:
               DONT CHEAT

or do it at your very best.. if not,we
will loose contact, sooner or later,and
i'd like to keep contact with you all!
also please put enought stamps on the
pack, as i am not sure if the post
checks on that aswell!

i said it before several times.. please
open your eyes this time.. cant or dont
you want to see!?

at last a list of the people i havent
heared from in a too long time, so they
can be supposed to be one of those
unlucky ones from whom the disc got
"lost".. please,send again, uncheated!

addy in addy chapter...
----------------------------------------
a polish scener left the scene....


                hi dudes!
  all contax of IRON/fatum are asked to
     write to NEPHELIM/ftm/ent becoz
   iron bought a amiga and stopped all
           his c64 activities.

----------------------------------------
another note from holland arrived to the
jamaica staff.

SYCO/ATLANTIS has scoffed around that
i am lame because i used to work under
the "fake"-label of nike/extacy for
extacy land. while he was a member of
bamboo as "leonardo" while he was also
swapping as "syco". who is lame?

                             NTI/ENTROPY

              - -- --- -- -

syco has no right to say that it's lame
of nti to work under a fake handle as
he is doing the same thing. but if syco
didn't have a fake handle then he could
say it. and as far as i know nti hasn't
used the "nike" handle just to have a
chance to rag on anyone.

 bah! i believe i'm the biggest lamer as
      i tried to answer this thing!
----------------------------------------
some time ago GOREFEST quitted the swap
biz. but i'm still swapping with him.
and he wrote a note called:

              C64 RELIGION


(hi jasper! i couldn't keep my fingers
away from this note as it was too good
to be just spoiled away! hope you don't
mind!)

              - -- --- -- -

dear contacts,

i have been wondering about this whole
scene thing and the meaning of it..
deadbeat/sharks told me something
really interesting.. he said that the
scene is a RELIGION. we believe in
something (a computer) and build our
own world around it.. i think he is
right about that. i personnaly have
always disliked religious people..
god, jehova, satan.. fuck all that..

but now i myself seem to be part of a
religious sect.. well, i am not that
much involved anylonger.. on the one
hand i am glad about that.. on the other
the scene wasn't that bad.. i made some
great friends.. but as with every
religion: you have fanatic believers and
less fanatic ones.. the fanatics spoil
the fun.. the fanatics fight about a
first release, feel very depressed when
they are unable to find a decent group,
the fanatics use words like friendship
in every sentence in a note to their
contacts, they forget about other
things in life (what other things?..
yeah.. that's what i mean)

the less fanatic believers do something
for their religion when they feel like
it.. they have a lot more relaxed life..

once, I belonged, in my "glory-days", to
the fanatics, but i dropped my beliefs
in the c64, and i'm not feeling sorry
about this.

i am not telling you to do the same, but
you can always think about these words..

----------------------------------------

         and with these words we
            end this chapter.
