intelligence

The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function. F. Scott Fitzgerald, from The Crack-Up, February 1936.

MODEM PROTOCOL DOCUMENTATION (textfiles.com) Many people ask me for documentation on my modem protocol, i.e. the one used in the various modem programs in CPMUG, on volumes 6, 25, 40, 47… so here it is. At the request of Rick Mallinak on behalf of the guys at Standard Oil with IBM P.C.s, as well as several previous requests, I finally decided to put my modem protocol into writing. It had been previously formally published only in the AMRAD newsletter.

F. Scott Fitzgerald (Wikipedia) Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (September 24, 1896 – December 21, 1940) was an American novelist, essayist, and short story writer. He is best known for his novels depicting the flamboyance and excess of the Jazz Age—a term he popularized in his short story collection Tales of the Jazz Age. During his lifetime, he published four novels, four story collections, and 164 short stories. Although he achieved temporary popular success and fortune in the 1920s, Fitzgerald received critical acclaim only after his death and is now widely regarded as one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century.
