1.	As a companion to Lauren Weinstein's "stargate" project, the uucp types
	at AT&T are arranging for net.announce to be broadcast over the War
	Department's Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) system in Wisconsin--the
	same system to be used to contact deeply-submerged nuclear-bomb-carrying
	submarines.  The new site for handling the traffic is to be called
	"watergate".

2.	Judge Harold Greene has mandated that the Bell symbol be stricken from
	the special font.  The nroff types at AT&T are replacing it with a
	smiley face, to be available using the escape "\(-:".
