How do you > meet MOTAS in other (distinctly, NOT computer science) fields? Oh but this is SO easy! Join a club like "The Longship Company Ltd" and learn how to sail a Viking Longship as well as meet good looking girls with similar anachronistic interests. How about taking some music courses? Surely there are some nice University girls interested in music and besides.... you'll learn how to play an instrument. And we all know that a girl's first love is her horse. Join a riding organization. The possibilities are endless! The first thing to do is start meeting people. Since approximatly half of the population is female, you'll have no problem meeting others of the female persuasion. Hanging out in a computer research lab is definatly NOT where it's at. Few human beings hang out there. -- UUCP: ...{decvax,ihnp4,allegra}!seismo!trwatf!root - Lord Frith ARPA: trwatf!root@SEISMO "There are none so blind as those that will not see"
