American politics and society. WebRunner publishes between 5-10

is ok. We have no ideological cast, nor do we have a legislative
agenda. Our focus is on opinion and insight. Paid notices accepted.

Zen Anarchy
"Zen Anarchy started out as an excuse to learn PageMaker and evolved
into something which has to be seen to be understood. It's basically
my thoughts, ideas, rants, raves, etc... Some will like it, some
will hate it. I don't care, but if it gets just one person to think
about something, well then I guess it's worth it."

CRAM: The Cyberspatial Reality Advancement Movement
In an effort to bring valuable information to the masses, and as a
service to motivated information compilers, a member of CRAM can help
others unfamiliar with Usenet `publish' their documents for
widespread dissemination via the FAQ structure, and act as a
`sponsor' knowledgable in the submissions process. This document is
being distributed under this arrangement.
We have found these compilations tend to appear on various mailing
lists and are valuable enough to deserve wider distribution. If you
know of an existing compilation of Internet information that is not
currently a FAQ, please contact us and we may `sponsor' it. The
benefits to the author include:
- use of the existing FAQ infrastructure for distribution:
- automated mail server service
- FTP archival
- automated posting
- a far wider audience that can improve the quality, accuracy, and
coverage of the document enormously through email feedback
- potential professional inquiries for the use of your document in
other settings, such as newsletters, books, etc.
- with us as your sponsor, we will also take care of the
technicalities in the proper format of the posted version and
updating procedures, leaving you free of the `overhead' to focus on
the basic updates alone
The choice of who we `sponsor' is entirely arbitrary. You always have
the option of handling the submission process yourself. See the FAQ
submission guidelines FAQ in news.answers.
For information, send mail to <ldetweil@csn.org>.
