File Attachments and the Group Digest
Dear
Everyone,
This
email is meant to test how file attachments work for the group.
Hopefully
everyone will be able to see the attached joke voting ballot I've
attached
to this message. If not, please post a message here. (Also post any
reactions
to the election.)
I was
waiting to see what our "digests" would look like after ten messages
were
received. Now we know. I corrected a typo and put a copy of the digest
up on
the web where the old message board was. Check there if you want to
see what
it looks like.
By
hand, I added links WITHIN the digest to allow us to click on the table
of
contents, jump directly to a message, then jump back to the table of
contents.
Didn't take long, but I reserve the right to leave the links out
if we
start a large discussion and the digests come out rapidly.
Now, if
I were you people, I'd write me and tell me to "get a life." Well,
I'm
starting to get busy again. Hopefully, rather than START discussions
here,
I'll be able to REACT to some.
This is
everyone's bulletin board. Please use it.
a
PS. If
you have nothing to say, just attach something funny.

File Attachment Update
So now
we know. The attached file limit WAS 100k. I've increased it to 500k
maximum
allowable. If people think that's too much and are concerned about a
bunch
of large emails arriving, let me know.

This
article may remind some people of how they felt when they were growing up in
Hastings.
Viewing
the County With Teenage Eyes --- Jacob Hupart is a
senior at Ardsley High School.
[The New York Times via DowVision · Rcvd: Nov
19, 06:54 AM EST ]
Publication Date: Sunday November 19, 2000
Westchester Weekly Desk; Section 14WC; Page
16, Column 5
c. 2000 New York Times Company
By JACOB HUPART
FAMILIES move to the suburbs for their
children. But once these children hit
their
teenage years, many parents regret having left Manhattan, where they
wouldn't
face issues like . . . teenage driving.
Many teenagers also regret their
confinement to what many term ''the
boonies.''
Yet when their metamorphosis to college student begins, these
teenagers
begin to look at their suburban childhood in a different light.
The notion of ''anywhere but here'' begins
to erode. Westchester becomes the
refuge,
and the outside world a threat instead of an escape route.
Charlotte Wong, a senior at Hackley High
School in Tarrytown, said: ''When
you're
walking the dog, you don't have to lock your door. I mean, this isn't
Hicksville,
U.S.A., but it's pleasant and satisfying. You don't have to grow up
quite
so fast.''
No matter what teenagers say about growing
up in Westchester, though, most
agree
about one thing -- it is not where they want to live for the rest of their
lives.
In the meantime, they say, there isn't much
that's teen friendly in
Westchester,
at least in many communities. ''It's kind of boring,'' said Jamie
Su, a
junior at White Plains High School. People just sit around, or we drive
around
and waste gas.''
Unlike major metropolitan areas, the
suburbs don't offer the kind of pastimes
suitable
to teenagers struggling to break parental bonds. Westchester can seem
like a
prison to teenagers, at least until they get a driver's license. But most
places
accessible by car aren't the escapes teenagers are searching for, merely
different
versions of the thing they were trying to escape.
People may still mall crawl, or go out to
Starbucks for coffee and to chat
for
hours, but often people go out just to go out. This is not to say that they
wander
endlessly. Teenagers may head to The Westchester or to Barnes & Noble. Or
they
could go to keg parties.
Then there's Manhattan, which beckons to
lots of teenagers who feel at loose
ends.
As Andrew Ecker, a senior at Irvington High School, said, the best thing
about
Westchester is its ''proximity to the city.''
This is not to say that high school
students don't have fun here. They do.
Samara
Cohen, a senior from Hartsdale, said, ''I love the friends that I have.''
On the
flip side, she believes ''that everyone
knows everything about
everybody.''
Many teenagers' complaints about
Westchester arise from its homogeneity.
Teenagers
believe that they lead a sheltered existence within Westchester, one
that
might not adequately prepare them for the outside world and college.
''You're shut out from other cultures,''
said Stephen Riolo, a senior from
Hastings-on-Hudson.
Only in White Plains do they feel that they have some sense
of
diversity.
And even this seeming homogeneity does not
necessarily provide teenagers with
soulmates.
Justin Halle, a senior from Dobbs Ferry,
said one of the hardest things about
growing
up in Westchester is ''having to admit to yourself that there aren't
many
people like me.''
Some thrive in Westchester, and some do
not. Dan Scheer, an Ardsley senior,
sees it
this way: ''The benefits of living here and the detriments are the same
thing:
you're surrounded by a lot of people who you can relate to -- but who are
also
very similar.''

You all
may find it amusing to know that my teenage daughter feels exactly
the
same way about her hometown of Walnut Creek CA. It is THE most boring
place
in the world and there is nothing to do.
I keep trying to tell her
that
place is called Hastings-on-Hudson! She has a Nordstrom, Macy's, Gap,
six
Starbucks and more all in her own town!
Who could ask for more? Only a
teenager...
Interesting
to note that the Stephen Riolo quoted in the article in Jessica
Nugent's
son - how did we get so old?

RE: Ricky's Out of Office AutoReply
Dear
Rick,
The
group of people currently subscribed to our class email message board
have
been wondering why we receive so many impersonal messages from you
about
your travel movements.
The
answer is when you are out of the office, your "AutoReply" is
responding
with
the same "out of office" message to each and every email from us.
May I
suggest either:
1.
applying a filter to your AutoReply that would weed out any of our group
messages
(write me if you need help on this), or
2.
unsubscribing from work and resubscribing from another personal address
This
just came up again as Nancy R. Martin's message to the group went to
your
mailbox and evoked an out of office response to all of us, as I am sure
THIS
email will.
After
you resolve this issue and when you get a chance, please write
hastings@art-cetera.com
with a "live" message about you, your family and
your
holiday plans.
(In
fact, it would be nice if everyone did.)
Warmly,
Alan
