I am sure some bashers of Pens fans are pretty confused about the lack
of any kind of posts about the recent Pens massacre of the Devils. Actually,
I am bit puzzled too and a bit relieved. However, I am going to put an end
to non-PIttsburghers' relief with a bit of praise for the Pens. Man, they
are killing those De... | rec.sport.hockey | [

Yeah, it's the second one. And I believe that price too. I've been trying
to get a good look at it on the Bruin-Sabre telecasts, and wow! does it ever
look good. Whoever did that paint job knew what they were doing. And given
Fuhr's play since he got it, I bet the Bruins are wishing he didn't have it:)

If a Christian means someone who believes in the divinity of Jesus, it is safe
to say that Jesus was a Christian.

The Supreme Court seems to disagree with you -- they have stated that
"the people" is a term of art refering to an individual right, and
have explicitly mentioned the second amendment as an example.
I quote:
"... 'the people' seems to have been a term of art employed in

Why not? I believe both the Devils and Islanders got 87 points.
Say for example, another team had this record : 20-37-47;
they had 20*2+47*1+37*0=87 which is the same as their points total.
(The Islanders' and Devils' records are both 40-37-7.
It is simple arithmetics and involve no Calculus.

A friend and I have ATI Graphic Ultra display adaptors, and they have
been reasonably good performers, but we both have had irritating compatibility
problems with the ATI drivers and are ready to change to something faster
and more compatible with windows. I have heard rumblings that the new Orchid

[discussing the use of IRQ 7]
To put it a little differently:
- IRQ 7 is the de facto standard interrupt assigned to be used by the
printer adapter to announce its completion of some activity.
- DOS doesn't monitor IRQ 7; it uses other means to determine when it's
time to send out another byte to the print... | comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware | [

Hi. My last question for the year. I have a mail-order no-name notebook
with 4 meg ram. I never have problems with my huge ramdisk or when
running desqview, but Win3.1 and W4W2.0 constantly crash on me, most
commonly citing a "memory parity error." The only thing I can do is TURN
OFF and re-boot. My CMOS ticks off... | comp.os.ms-windows.misc | [

Hey man! -
Having spent the past season learning to skate and having played a
couple of sessions of mock hockey, I'm ready to invest in hockey
equipment (particularly since I will be taking summer 'hockey
lessons'). However, I am completely and profoundly ignorant when it
comes to hockey equipment. I've checked out ... | rec.sport.hockey | [

Has anyone publically considered the possibility that the fires were set
for defence instead of suicide and the destruction and confusion caused
by the tanks and gas caused things to get out of the BDs control?
