Wow. It's been a while since our last issue. And lots of things, good
and bad, have transpired.
Under Operation Sun Devil, scores of people were raided and busted. One
permanent effect of the operation is the fact that Ripco BBS, an institution
of the computer underground community, is permanently down.
Another intrgral part of the computer underground that bit the dust is
the famous online newsletter called Phrack. Its publisher, Knight Lightning,
was left with $100,000 worth of legal bills to pay off, and has stated that
he will not continue to publish the journal, much to the loss of the rest
of us. Doc Holiday from 713 published his own version of Phrack and
received a great deal of criticism for it. It is our understanding that he
might continue to use the Phrack name, but we hope that he decides to put
his publication out under a different name.
Under this climate of repression against computer users, some may have
thought that even ATI has closed its electronic doors. This is not the case.
We here at ATI will continue to publish as long as there is a readership
interested in our publication. And with the enthusiasm expressed by many
regarding ATI, we are confident in saying that we'll be around for a long
time. Sadly enough, however, ATI is the LAST regular underground online
newsletter that is still being published.
I apologize for the delay between issues. I promise that ATI will come
out on a more regular basis from now on. Expect to see at least 1 ATI per
month, hopefully more.
As stated before, ATI is available from many BBS's. However, I took
down The Red Phone BBS, so ATI's main points of release will be The Workshop
of the Telescopes at 201-916-1943 and the TAP BBS at 502-499-8933. Since our
last few issues, I found, to my surprise, that it's next to impossible to
list every BBS on which ATI is available, as it's being spread around quite
well. ATI has made it to BBS's all around the US, plus ones in Germany,
Sweden, Norway, Yugoslavia, and more.
If you have internet access, you may obtain issues of ATI through the
net by mailing me at ...uunet!tronsbox!akcs.groundzero.uucp . I have a
sizable list of readers receiving ATI through the net, and would like to add
more.
Needless to say, please do upload ATI to your favorite boards, or mail
copies of it to your net-friends. Spread this publication as far as you can!
Also, you may obtain a full set of ATI back issues by sending $1 (and a
disk if you can) to the address for ATI listed above. Back issues are
available for the following computer types on 3.5" disks: IBM compatibles,
Amiga, Atari ST, Macintosh, and Commodore. Commodore users may receive the
issues on 3 1/2" or 5 1/4" disks (please specify which size you want).
The ATI staff is also looking for submissions, large and small. If you
have anything, whether it be a larger article or a small blurb 1 paragraph
long you wish to contribute, please mail me at ATI's PO Box or at my net
address listed above, or at the Workshop or TAP BBS's.
Now, let's kick off this issue with Prime Anarchist World News, with his
unique focus on earth-type stuff and other pressing issues of the day:
p*a*w*n*p*a*w*n*p*a*w*n*p*a*w*n*p*a*w*n*p*a*w*n*p*a*w*n*p*a*w*n*p*a*w*n*
Hola Buenos, El Anarchisto Primavera Aqui. Your libertarian at large,
or was that seismologist at the switch? Or was it gynecologist at the
Guggenheim???
It's 415am. And a nice calm pleasant 60 degrees up here. I met an old
friend of Jack Keroac'sand he owns a shanty up in the mountains here, 8
miles up by donkee, 11 by foot. (Don't ask me, that's what the sign says).
Can't tell you his name; he's one of those hippies who headed for the hills
for some all too obvious reasons.He owns a Martin guitar from the 1940's
has a book collection out there that makes the Library of Congress look like
Nixon's home library, and charges 3.50 a bunk (room for 40 or more if we're
small) with no hassles about customer name and address. I stumbled into
this place by accident on a nature hike. (Why would I go 8 miles for a
place to pee? Hmm)At any rate, I'll be returning there this morning sometime
and I'll finish this column then.
Til then; buenos nachos...
Oh, one quickie -- a FOLK from Prime.(basic ADE blues) I got the Mercon
buerocrat, fat boojuah status quo blues I got all-a trumps capital,
nothin special to lose. Mercon buerocrat, fat boo-juah status quo blues.
Was it as good for you as it was for me?
Ever find yourself sleeping too deepto dream? Do "think-of's"; that'll
bring you back out to REM-- you'll then start dreaming again. If you're
not good at remembering your dreams when you wake up, keep a small notepad
next to your bed. When you awake, jot down all the icons instead of trying
to write the whole story. Then write later from your notes you'll lose less.
eg: wineglass, pen,sarah, t-shirt, no smoking sign, kiss,ankle bracelet,
ring, guitar, table,chair, bar, notebook, tongs. Then later you go for the
story aspect. You're drinking wine at a coffee house with Sarah, exchanging
poems, wanting to smoke. Sarah's wearing just a really long t-shirt, annkle-
bracelet and a ring. You kiss her a couple times. You promise to teach
her to play guitar as she admires the entertainment. She puts on her tongs
and the two of you leave. Then you woke up.
What ever happened to MRR magazine?If anyone knows, do tell. THNX
"The Hopi people <indians for you who have no clue> declare that Hopi
Power be a force which will bring about world peace." From their Hopi
Declaration of Peace, circa 17Jun90.
Beware of false prophets. If it looks too good to be true; it's probably
tooooooooooooooo risky.
Insider Info: most people who win on game shows do not naturally jump
up and down so queerly as is seen on TV. We tend to sit there with a
"potential mass murderer" grin on our faces. For this we need a coach. He
makes the gals shake about enough to jiggle their tits in the most queer
contrived fashion; and us guys are required to wiggle around like an
uninhibited homosexual. So remember, if it looks real, theres probably an
"applause" sign staring him down.
If you spell quiche with a "k" (keesh?) then real men too will eat it.
What's dharma mean? I drank a whole bottle full of acid rain. How
come nothing happened for me except the men's room??? Define "yabyum".
Whatever happened to the Frito Bandito??? Was he replaced by "just do
it", and "sometimes you gotta break the rules"?!?!?!? I finally got a
copy of "Skinny Legsand All" by Tom Robbins. I'll let ya know how I'm doin
in a little bit. "A close association of unions and big business is the
hallmark of a fascist economy." Wow. Que concept.From the book "Trilaterals
Over Washington". Are we already there???Close??? Make a profit; or just
look like one at Oral Roberts school of Business/Television Entertainment/
and Gospel Phukking.
Research Topic of the Week: A war on drugz can be seen as a diversion.
Just like baseball, wife beating, or the drugz in and of themselves. PS:
dont forget to turn your parents in if you think they're smoking pot. Witch
Hunt? Nah... A war on Drugz cannot be "won" cause it is so deeply rooted
in our culture. Like our violence, our drug abuse (to include for sure
nicotene and alcohol) is not doubt here to stay. To get rid of drugz,
you'd have to get rid of the peoploidz involved. And how do you rid
yourself of your mayor,your sheriff, your mom or yourself???
We shouldve kept the Injuns alive long enuff for them to learn us how
to treat our environ. Enviro-tip of the week-- dont use too much
detergent. Over sudsing makes the machine work harder. Use half what the
box recommends. Maybe even less.Remember, they WANT you to use so much.Then
you keep Mr. Maytag in 24$ per hr. Runner-up: Keep a couple bottles of
water in the fridge rather than runnin the tap all the time. --good bottles
are Verifine apple, and just about any grapefruit jug. Prime Note: always
use glass. Shy away from plastic. Cause u'r gonna hafta throw it away SOME
time!!!
Suggestion of the decade: draw a square around yourself. Declare it a
liberated zone. Kill anyone who enters.
Who the hell is Peter Kvitek??? The self-proclaimed hacker said
November 17th, in a SF Examiner article "the speed with which software is
stolen in the Soviet Union is incredible!" Relax, dood. First off, it's no
worse or faster than in Germany, Italy or here in the US. Who is this guy??
Unless someone gets me a handle, a project, or a campaign, I'll just say the
guy's a wannabe. Probably a code elite/cool warez" kinda dood.
Everyone's a hacker these days. Right. When's the last time YOU trashed a
TRW building? I'll bet there are just as many "hackers" today as there are
people who supposedly "were there" at Woodstock!!!
The average person's skull can be depressed by 10% before cracking-LM
Boyd.
Soldiers of the Kiori tribe in New Guinea salute their superior officers
by lightly chucking them under the chin. Do that to your favorite Lieutenant
Col. Don't foget to say, "hey guy, how's it goin?"
Mooses are the largest North American member sof the deer family. Their
average height is 6 feet, quite like us, but they weigh in at 1200-1800
pounds. Even Rosanne and Oprah together don't weigh that much. Besides,
moose don't whine.
Delbert Yates, 16, of Valparaiso, IN has been in court for 6 years with
the Chicago Cubs. They just paid him $67,500 as an apology for hitting him
in the head with a foul ball. Come on, kid. That's the chance you gotta
take. If I sued for all 3 windshields I'd lost behind the dugout, I'd
probably stay in court until my 103rd birthday. You're a jerk, Yates. I
suggest you've brought more shame to the game of baseball than Pete Rose,
Pete Rose, and Pete Rose all combined.
Are you a Yappy, or just Happy? YAP- Yipsters Against Paying.
HAPPY- Hipsters Against Paying Phor Yuppiedom.
I sure wish payphone directories would have more empty spaces, or at
least more blank pages.
Salvador's getting pretty hairy. I asked a phriend of mine (can't give
his name for life or death purposes) who really knows a lot about our
mission down there how much is Castro and how mush is us; and guess what
he said? 80-20 us.
Feedback: I really like the Skinhead Hamlet in ATI45.
On car insurance: You notice the rates go up every time they see a new
risk, but when a risk is alleviated (IE: drunk driving) rates don't go
down? They just stay the same.
As your editor-at-large, I firmly announce that it's earth day, earth
decade, earth millenium. In corrolary
to having been asked "what'r u doin 4 earth day?" I have to ask - WHAT ARE
YOU DOING FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE?
University of Colorado won best college for the environment, an MTV
award. If you missed it, you missed me. You also missed Paul Newman, and
also Mytch Snyder, along with a bunch of people doing 30 second spots on what
they're doing for the environment. For those of you who missed me, here's
a transcript: (I didn't jot down what the starz said, sorry) "I do a lot of
biking, and try to hike or walk whenever I can instead of driving."
Ian McCulloch split for E & the B-Men. And I think he sucks alone.

There is only one Spaceship Earth, and there is no spare. We are the
crew. Let's all join together in sharing these symbols to help promote
positive global awareness and to celebrate our essential unity. (OK, the flag
is $49, but everythung else is still cheap. There are 2 smaller sizes in you
can't swing a $50 (only YUPPIES can swing that much these days! -GZ). But
waving that flag is cool. And anyone who'd burn THAT one's a fool.)
While wwearing Birkenstocks, if people ask ya "how're ya doing?", tell
em, "Great!"
THIS JUST IN FROM SPY MAGAZINE - "The US Army is proud by definition,
so it's easy for them to come right out and admit it when they break into a
Panamanian dictator's home and seize his Mexican food. At least that's what
one American on the scene thought the 50 pounds of a suspicious powdery
substance at Manny's residence looked like - tamale filling. But there were
other opinions. "We were sure it was coccaine", insisted the colonel whose
troops made the cache. "It was not coccaine", a Pentagon spokesman said a
month later. Turns out it was not tamales, but close. The army confiscated
farina, cornmeal, and lard, wrapped in banana leaves. Loss of military face?
No way. Too proud.
Call Kurt Vonnegut (Wash. DC area) and ask him where you could buy a
bearskin coat like he's got. Really cool lookin. So 40's.

WHY I'M SEMIVEGETARIAN, by Prime.
A, I don't like imposing on people;
B, I'm a sucker for chili, and,
C, oftentimes I'd starve if I went without meat.
If you're eating over someone's house (I do a lot), you eat what's on
the table. You're an ass for refusing, or demanding. Plus sometimes menus
don't come right out and say there's meat in a particular dish. And for
time benefits, I eat and shut up instead of saying "Uh, waitress..."
Yeah, I'm partial to chili with more beans and less meat, but I'll eat
just about any chili thrown at me. As long as it's hot. Hot to temperature
as well as hot to the taste buds. Oh, I also prefer homemade (hint, hint)
to Hormel (hormel is a capitalist pig co. !!! - GZ)
Sometimes you just don't have much choice. When veggies aren't around,
salad is wilted, or meat and potatoes is the only bit offered, you do what
you must. The commune I live at doesn't make it too easy either. The
foodage is extremely starchy, and chock full of red meat. But I get by. I
usually lean towards fish meals, and for druthers take chicken or turkey
first; but sometimes break down and grab a tenderloin or a shoeleather-
cheeseburger.
I never worry as I go to fast-food chains. A full-fledged vegg could
easily survive a Big Mac or Whopper. There's really no beef to speak of
there.
