Welcome

Welcome to the Weight Control and Maintenance Conference.
It was started by Neal E. Goldsmith in 1987.
I'll post keyword and note directories as replies to this topic.
Good Luck to all!

READ THIS NOTE!
---------------
PLEASE read the rest of this introductory note, it contains valuable
information about the contents of this file and your Moderators
operating procedures. Even if you have participated previously, please
take the time to read this note as some rules have changed slightly.
Extraction of Notes
-------------------
The contents of this file may not be extracted without the author(s)
permission. However, as an Employee Interest notesfile, your Moderators
do not wish that the contents of this conference be solely for Digital
Internal Use Only. As such, no notes containing Proprietary Information
should be entered - and will be removed if they appear.
Suitable Topics
----------------
This conference is for the discussion of losing weight and keeping
it off.
Topics may be on any of the following:
o Diets
o Medical programs
o Personal experiences
o Quack or "To good to be true" offers
o other topics related to the loss of weight
Feel free to "toot your own horn" when it comes to weight you have
lost, success stories should aid those of us who still have a ways
to go.
Inappropriate Topics
--------------------
These include notes that extol the virtues of anything that will give
financial reward to you.
Please use your common sense.
Obscenity
---------
Any obscene notes will be deleted without notice or notification.
Copies will be kept of such notes. If persistent offence is caused by
any Noter in particular, the Moderators will have no hesitation in
taking this matter to Personnel.
The Moderators' definiton of 'obscenity' includes, but is not limited
to, obvious profanity, and both explicit and implicit sexual
references.
Insults
-------
Insults cannot and will not be tolerated. If a note is considered
insulting to the person(s) it references, it will be hidden, all
parties involved will be contacted, and the moderators will attempt to
negotiate a solution. If none can be agreed upon, all notes involved
will be deleted. This is not limited to discussion of Digital
Employees.
Offensive Notes
---------------
If you are offended by a Note here, please contact the author initially
and only get the Moderators involved if no agreement can be reached.
Please contemplate whether the offense is worthwhile getting upset
over, or whether you can deal with it via a snappy reply.
If you do not wish to contact the Noter involved, just FORWARD/MEMBER
the note, stating your views. This will send it to all Moderators.
We will then discuss the matter with you and the Noter
concerned, preserving anonymity if need be.
Whilst this discussion is going on, the offending note will be hidden
from view except by the author and the Moderators.
Misplaced Notes
---------------
If a new Topic is posted instead of a reply, your Moderators reserve
the right to move the note to the appropriate topic.
Multiple Topics with similar subjects
-------------------------------------
These will be rationalised/combined by your Moderators.
A final plea
------------
Finally, please observe Digitals Policies and Procedures here, as in
all other circumstances when at work or participating in
Digital-sponsored conferences such as this.

I would remind user of this conference that P&P *ABSOLUTELY* precludes
your doing business here, or indeed mailing/phoning/contacting
particpants herein to sell stuff to them *NO MATTER HOW WONDERFUL* you
think your stuff is.
To all the other folks: caveat emptor! There are NO shortcuts to
weightloss.

Subject: A Message to Employee Interest Notes File Users
By way of introduction, I am the Corporate Personnel Policy Manager.
Part of my responsibility includes providing interpretation of Digital's
Personnel Policy, including the Personnel Policy 6.54. I would greatly
appreciate your assistance in posting the attached memo from John Sims in
the Notes files you moderate, and as many other Employee Interest Notes
Files as possible. Please give me a call if you have any questions.

Subject: A message to employee interest notes file users
A MESSAGE TO EMPLOYEE INTEREST NOTES FILE USERS
Over the last few months I have received a number of complaints
from employees, and individuals outside of the company about
material communicated in electronic mail systems and posted in
various employee interest notes files. After reading some of this
material it is clear that a reminder about appropriate comment and
behavior in these systems is necessary.
First, and most critically; the electronic mail systems and notes
files are company facilities subject to normal workplace rules of
conduct. As such, the same rules that govern conduct and comment
in any other Digital workplace apply with equal weight in these
systems. Stated simply, if you wouldn't say something in a
Digital business meeting, you shouldn't say it in electronic mail
or notes. PERIOD.
Statements that attribute improper, illegal or immoral motives or
actions to others; statements that cast aspersions on the
character or integrity of others or that amount to libel or
slander are not permitted. PERIOD. In this regard, it does not
matter whether the individuals subject to the comment are elected
public officials or directors of organizations disfavored by the
author. There is no "Public Figure" exception in these systems.
Comments of a sexual nature are not acceptable whether they are
about the author or directed at others. Similarly, comments that
degrade, devalue or discriminate against others are also
prohibited.
Neither the notes conferences nor electronic mail should be used
to solicit other employees. This prohibition covers efforts to
solicit employees for personal or political gain, to sell or
market goods or services (except authorized marketplace or
discount conferences) and efforts to solicit employees to take
action, sign petitions or support particular causes or candidates.
Finally, employees should remember that it is never appropriate to
spend working time in employee interest notes for non-work
purposes. Personal or entertainment activities in these notes
files should be limited to assigned break times, lunch time and
before or after business hours.
Employee interest notes files and conferences provide an
electronic forum to share ideas and opinions about matters of
common interest. In supporting these conferences, the company
understood that there would be occasions where employees would
disagree on issues being discussed, but we believed and continue
to believe it is possible to disagree without being disagreeable.
Personnel Policy 6.54, Proper Use of Digital Computers, Systems
and Networks provides further information about appropriate
conduct and comment in these systems. Employees who fail to meet
these expectations, or who use company computer systems in ways
that are contrary to the letter or spirit of that policy are
subject to Corrective Action and Discipline up to and including
the termination of their employment.
The moderators of these conferences, along with your system
managers, personnel representatives and the Personnel Policy
Manager are all available to answer any question you might have
about appropriate use of these systems.
Please feel free to forward this memo to other Digital notes
files and conferences.
