I >am pretty sure it is DC comics. And I think the cost was 9.95. >Ruth In case people aren't familiar with the format, this comic book is called a "trade paperback". It's a collection of several different comics under one cover. In this case, DC Comics released the book during L&C early seasons to capitalize on the show. Although the comic has Dean and Teri's picture on the front, don't buy it expecting to get a "Lois & Clark" comic. It is the comics characterizations of Lois and Clark, not Dean and Teri's. The stories in this book were chosen to give some background on their relationship in the comics, and ends just as they begin dating. So, don't expect a lot of heavy romance either. Now, all that said, if you like Superman and L&C in general, it's a fun book to have. It's neat to see the differences in the characters, and the picture on the front is sure nice. :) As to where to get it -- call your local comic book shop (look in the yellow pages under "Comics"). If they don't have it in stock (and they may not -- it's been out for a several years now and I know that many shops were offering any remaining copies at a sale price even a few years ago to clear them out of the store), ask them if they can order it for you. Comics shops work from catalogs that DC Comics puts out, so if it's still in print, they can order it for you.

Using proper URL e-mail format, as I have posted previously, always works for cut & paste and for direct hyperlinks.

Those of you who know how, hit that good ole delete button ;) To copy text, take your mouse and point it to the beginning of the text you'd like copied. Click the *left* mouse button and keep it held down. Then drag the mouse accross the mouse pad (still holding down the left mouse button) and you'll notice that highlights the text (makes the text look white surrounded by black) Once you have everything highlighted that you want to copy, let go of the left mouse button. Then on your keyboard hold down the Ctrl (control) key. While you're holding that down, hit the letter "C" on your keyboard. That copies what you've just highlighted. Now switch to you're "reply" e-mail. Click your mouse so the cursor is in the body of the e-mail. Then on hold down Cntrl key again and press the letter "V" on your keyboard. The V must stand for 'voila' because your copied text appears where you wanted it You can offset what you copied by typing a few ">>>" in front of the text and a few "<<<" after the pasted text. >>>You can offset what you copied by typing a few ">>>" in front of the text and a few "<<<" after the pasted text.<<<< This helps people know that what you have inbetween the >>>><<<< is from someone else's post and that you're responding to what they said. In that way, even if someoe wrote out an URL all bunched in with the text as "http:www.yahoo.com" and didn't put a space anywhere, then to save you from typing it by hand, just copy it from the e-mail and paste it into your browser: http:www.yahoo.com Pointing, clicking and dragging with the mouse can spare you retyping. Now I admit I have no knowledge of Mac computers, so I don't know if copying and posting is remotely similar to PCs. Also, I realize a couple of people are subscribed to the list via Web TV and so this also wouldn't be helpful information in that case since they access the internet without a computer at all. Hopefully though, it helped some FoLC out there ;) Oh, and you can use the 'edit' menu at the top of your screen instead of "Cntrl C" and "Cntrl V" The edit menu has the 'copy' and 'paste' options. I know some mailers (AOL for example) allows you to highlight text and when you hit "reply" your text appears along with an attribution line ("In message dated 9/02/97 DeanCain@hotbody.net writes:" ) without having to paste, but some mailers don't, and so for those of you who don't have that option and have never copied and pasted, I hope something here was useful.

We all need to recognize that some of us are not so computer literate... and that suggestions should be made *and* accepted with common courtesy held foremost in our minds. And, as someone suggested to me when I first entered IRC... "THINK before you hit that enter key... you just can't take it back." Well, maybe we all need to *THINK* before we click the send button (or whatever your specific program uses)... not just about what we said, and how we said it, but how *others* will accept it. It's hard to do, and when we are angry or upset it is so tempting to type a nasty reply, but more often than not you will offend someone of the 400+ users that will read your post. So, may I suggest, that if *you* know that you are PMSing, or crabby, or angry at an individual... well... take it to private e-mail before zapping the list with it. It might save a lot of hurt feelings in the end. Regarding sarcasm... those of us who have been on the list awhile know that Demi is the most polite and politically correct person that one can encounter... more often than not, she spices up her writing with a little humor here or there, and the majority of us love her for it. Before taking offense at the comment of another (be it Demi, or Gary, or anyone else... this list is known for it's colorful posters... that's one reason I stay) recognize that the vast majority of comments sent to the list are innately good. Trust me, if someone is being insulted, there will be no question (I have seen it done) and the list managers are quite capable of handling the fallout. One last thought... smile :) This list is for enjoyment, IMHO... so just enjoy it. If you don't like it, or are offended by it, well... that's what the delete key is for ;) Crystal (who really should think before she clicks send... nah, I'll just add a disclaimer at the beginning of the post, that should cover me ;) ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 2 Sep 1998 21:47:18 -0500 Reply-To: "Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Fanfic" Sender: "Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Fanfic" From: Kathy Brown Subject: Copying and pasting for Macs In-Reply-To: <42f70921.35ed810f@aol.com>> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" At 1:31 PM -0400 9/2/98, The Zoomway wrote: >Now I admit I have no knowledge of Mac computers, so I don't know if copying >and posting is remotely similar to PCs. Yes, nearly identical. :) If your mouse only has one button, use that one, otherwise, use the left button. Highlight the text, but use the button on your keyboard (not the button) while simultaneously pushing (to copy) or (to paste>. Now, what is the "command" button, you ask? It's that button with the funny little symbol on it, next to the space bar. Kind of like a little squiggley square. You can also highlight the text, then go to the Edit pull-down menu on the top of your screen, and select "Copy" and "Paste". That way you don't even have to use the keyboard. Hope this helps.

Let me just say in the interests of harmony that I have yet to read a post which is truly offensive. Some are sad and show hurt feelings and some are perhaps a little thoughtless but offensive - no. So I will ask that all of you try to take any post as simply expressing an opinion and not intended to offend anyone. I know it is hard not to feel hurt when someone criticizes something dear to your heart. But give a little. Ex. I have been reading the 'would Clark kill posts' and have to say my superman would never kill under any circumstances and in any genre (TV, movies, comics, etc.) - but that doesn't mean others aren't entitled to their opinions. So I simply listen and perhaps learn but will not necessarily change my opinion. Remember this is a free society in which people are entitled to have opinions and express them no matter how misguided. And the personal computer, which I have been using since the first home built kits (my late husband was a techie type) has always been a tool for allowing free communcation among people.

Just seeing FoLC's get a second chance at their favorite series is enough for me to be happy. I know what it's like going through withdrawal >from a series and then, finally, finally getting to relive it again after a prolonged period of time.

(sorry, i couldn't resist ;) anyway, i was watching an awful movie last night but it gave me an idea for what i think might be an interesting L&C story. my writing stinks or i'd try it myself. that, and i haven't worked out all the details, either. i've just got the idea. here goes. Clark is accused of rape. here's how it goes down. some woman, similar in tenor to gretchen kelly, has suspicions that clark = superman. that, or she just wants to make it miserable for clark, since it's been said enough that they are the same person so it's true enough for her. so, she gets a reporting job at the planet and pulls strings to get lois the "intervew of a lifetime" (by the way, how many of those have these two had. i thought you were only allowed one apiece?). so, while lois is out of town, clark and this other woman are all alone on a stake out. they are listening to the radio and clark hears there is a bomb threat at the hotel where lois is staying. he makes his cheese of the month excuse and hauls it up there. all is well but L&C are so shook up by the few days they have already spent apart and the brush with death that they make time for one another before clark zips it back to the stake out. whilst he's gone and according to the other woman's plan, she has sex with a fellow in L&C's car (the one being used for the stake out) and plants some of superman's semen which she obtained from star labs (connections with lex) when supes made his deposit for the fertility/compatibility tests. she roughs herself up or whatever and when clark gets back, he finds her in the car, she tears his shirt, yells "rape" and runs into a crowd emerging from the party of whatever they were staking out. clark is in puruit and looks a tad disheveled. clark has no alibi, since everyone thinks he was there with her for the stakeout. he can't say he was away being superman, now can he? the semen matches his and he have sex that night. what to do. what to do. well, after that lengthy explanantion, you can no doubt see why i wouldn't want to take it on myself but anyone else is more than welcome to and i'd be happy to be their sounding board for more ideas in regards to this story. me ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 7 Sep 1998 21:33:18 -0500 Reply-To: "Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Fanfic" Sender: "Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman Fanfic" From: Kathy Brown Subject: Re: fanfic idea In-Reply-To: <19980908020712390.AAA254@oemcomputer> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" At 9:07 PM -0500 9/7/98, Gilbert, Sharon dialup wrote: >clark has no alibi, since everyone thinks he was there with her for the >stakeout. he can't say he was away being superman, now can he? the semen >matches his and he have sex that night. what to do. what to do. This is a very interesting set up, Sharon. I have no idea how Clark would get out of it. If not for the 'stealing Superman's semen', it might be a simple case of detective work, but with that little bit of planted evidence, Clark would be stuck. The other problem I see, however, is that if the lab analyzed the semen enough to know it was Clark's, then they might be able to tell that it was "different" (Kryptonian). Then all hell would break loose. However, it is an interesting premise. If you are interested in reading a story along these lines, I recommend "4 x Lex, Almost" by Louette McInnis (I really hope I have the author's name right; I'm spelling from memory here -- the title is correct though). It is in the Archive. The premise is similar -- Clark is accused of rape by a young Daily Planet intern and L&C must find out what's behind her story before Clark's reputation is damaged even further. It's a really good story. I think you (anyone) would like it. Kathy ______________________ Kathy Brown kbrown@webmart.net KathyB on IRC ______________________
