263.0. "END OF AN ERA OURGNG" by RSST6::RIGGEN (Burley from biking) Mon Jun 11 1990 11:48

    Well folks the time has come to find yet another home for SPORTS. 

I received word that my job and my 6230 (pc) is moving to Atlanta. I would 
like to find a new home for SPORTS by the end of the month.July 1 this 
conference will be gone.

   Great Leaping Pieces Of Excrement!!

   What're ya going to Atlanta for,Jeff? At least when Hoot and Monty
   leave, they stay in Colo., You'll go nuts in Jawja (the people talk
   even funnier than people from Bahston!)

                             HAHAHAHAHAHA (tm)

   Tell `em you won't go unless they provide a home for OURGNG::SPORTS!

   Don't let `em shove you around like this!

	The problem is I'm not going to Atlanta just the CPU and the job. 
I'll be here in Colorado.

 Hi Jeff,

  So what is happening with the group up there?  Is everyone supposed to
be heading down south, or just a few of the positions?

As of today there still hasn't been a real decision on our fate except that 
We are now a real renter within the CSC organization. I expect a real struggle 
in the nexted couple of weeks about where will a SALES SUPPORT organization 
fit into a Customer Support Center. 

No date for the last day yet.

Well, Jeff, it's JMO, but I hope that they don't do away with
y'all.

From what I've seen, Sales Support orgs are a commodity we can't do
without....

   	Maybe we'll have to offer a reward!

   	Whoever saves the file from oblivion will be honored weeth the
   official title of "TECHNOWINNER!" (as opposed to Technoweenie), and
   possibly receive some baseball memorablelabia (tm), and a Jets bumper-
   sticker from JoJ.

   Alright... don't shove

263.10offer of temporary homeQUOKKA::SNYDERWherever you go, there you areFri Jun 22 1990 14:0814
    If nobody else steps forward, I should be able to provide a temporary
    home for this conference.  I've got a VAXstation II/GPX right now but
    I'll be switching to a DECstation 3100 (RISC machine running Ultrix) so
    I won't be able to host any conferences from that machine.  I already
    have the DECstation but am waiting for disks.  Delivery is scheduled
    for August.

    I'm going to be in Massachusetts all of next week (anybody wanna run
    with me at Wachusett Reservoir at the crack o' dawn?  I'll be running
    Tuesday through Friday mornings).  I'll be back in the office here in
    CXO on Monday, 2 July.  If the conference is going to go on QUOKKA, we
    may have to do it today.

Well the report says that today the Job is transitioning to Atlanta. A very big
CARROT has been hung in my face to keep supporting the Sales force in Colorado
looks pretty good as far as staying. It also looks like OURGNG is safe from 
the creditors for a while.
