  cancellation of computer programming classes for hourly workers at
  the Ford Rouge Factory. The newsletter deals with computer issues
  and labor issues. The Amateur Computerist is dedicated to support

  people movement" that gave birth to the personal computer in the

  Usenet, and of Unix and the progressive impact of these important
  breakthroughs."

Cropduster

 "Cropduster (est. 1992) appears periodically as a reaction to the
  kind of society that some of us live in. It is a knee-jerk response
  to the fact that our world produces cultural under-achievers...
  Cropduster has so far produced various reviews and critiques of some
  of the lesser known aspects of people and places that teeter-totter
  on barely breaking even. The zine is an overseer of this as well as
  a product of it, because the thing itself exhibits too many of the
  traits it condemns: Lack of rigor, unfair attacks, vendettas,
  revisionism, stubbornness, spelling mistakes, and vulgarity. What
  else can you expect from people who grew up in trailer parks and
  live on Kraft Dinner?"

Factsheet Five / Factsheet Five - Electric

 "FactSheet Five is the central clearinghouse of information about
  zines, those opinionated publications with press runs of 50 to 5000
  (often done through surrepticious use of on-the-job supplies and
  xerox). Mike Gunderloy of Rennsalaer, NY published 44 editions of
  F5. Hudson Luce published issue #45. Seth Friedman has published
  issue #46 onwards. I opened my big mouth (or, rather, let my fingers
  blab away) about doing an online, net-accessible version of
  FactSheet Five."

Fat Nipples

 "It could be called a punk zine, but music is rarely discussed.
  Politics, feelings and ideas are discussed from a punk perspective.
  Basically, it's whatever I'm thinking at the moment, be it funny,
  serious, boring, etc. Increases sex drive and disguises the signs of
  aging."

FUNHOUSE! -- The cyberzine of degenerate pop culture

 "Dedicated to whatever happens to be on my mind at the time I'm
  writing. The focus will tend to be on those aspects of our
  fun-filled world which aren't given the attention of the bland
  traditional media, or which have been woefully misinterpreted or
  misdiagnosed by the same. FUNHOUSE! is basically a happy place, and
  thus the only real criteria I will try to meet is to refrain from
  rants, personal attacks, and flames -- and thus FUNHOUSE! is an
  apolitical place. Offbeat films, music, literature, and experiences
  are largely covered, with the one stipulation that articles are
  attempted to be detailed and well documented, although this is no
  guarantee of completeness or correctness, so that the interested
  reader may further pursue something which may spark her interest."

CRAM: The Cyberspatial Reality Advancement Movement

In an effort to bring valuable information to the masses, and as a
service to motivated information compilers, a member of CRAM can help
others unfamiliar with Usenet `publish' their documents for
widespread dissemination via the FAQ structure, and act as a
`sponsor' knowledgable in the submissions process. This document is
being distributed under this arrangement.

We have found these compilations tend to appear on various mailing
lists and are valuable enough to deserve wider distribution. If you
know of an existing compilation of Internet information that is not
currently a FAQ, please contact us and we may `sponsor' it. The
benefits to the author include:

- use of the existing FAQ infrastructure for distribution:
  - automated mail server service
  - FTP archival
  - automated posting

- a far wider audience that can improve the quality, accuracy, and 
  coverage of the document enormously through email feedback

- potential professional inquiries for the use of your document in 
  other settings, such as newsletters, books, etc.

- with us as your sponsor, we will also take care of the 
  technicalities in the proper format of the posted version and 
  updating procedures, leaving you free of the `overhead' to focus on 
  the basic updates alone

The choice of who we `sponsor' is entirely arbitrary. You always have
the option of handling the submission process yourself.  See the FAQ
submission guidelines FAQ in news.answers.
