Subject: UPDATE: Project Rolling Stone From: fi@grebyn.com (Fiona Oceanstar) Date: 1991-04-17, 16:32 Newsgroups: alt.tv.twin-peaks Tuesday AM, 4/16 Many thanks for all the supportive and interesting letters I've read. With only one or two exceptions (which were expressed most mildly and politely), everyone who's written to me is enthused about helping me write an article about alt.tv.twin-peaks for _Rolling_ _Stone_. As for your most insightful questions about the "guidelines" for the project, these thoughts come to mind: --first and foremost, I caught a bug over the weekend, and still under the weather, so I'm behind on my reading of the newsgroup--I'm saving it all, though --so I don't have anything concrete (or cement) to say yet --BUT I agree with those who say that "solving" the mystery (if that can be done) is only part of the picture--mostly, what I have in mind is to take my previous article that was published in the _Gazette_, expand it with more theories, more names of netters, more hoopla, and more of that patented _Rolling_Stone_-silly-blather (assuming I can write some of it (-:), and just see what happens. The point is 1) to have fun, and 2) to get the article out, and only 3) to have it accepted, paid for, or otherwise lauded. The rewards will be in the doing. --I now stand corrected about the schedule, that there will be a show on the 18th, and frankly I just can't justify not watching it (!), so I'm bagging the idea of trying to keep myself spoiler-free from the 11th on. We'll have plenty of time before the June closing episode to chatter away. Thus, in terms of format, I see no need to use the "RS:" in the header except if you want to just to grab my attention. :-) I'll be playing the role of spectator and scribe at this show, more than actual partici- pant, so don't expect more than the occasional note from me. I *do* want to keep firmly in mind, though, the idea of credit where credit's due, so this week I'll begin jotting down names and e-addresses of those who are contributing, so I can compile a little mailing list for when it gets to the point of double-checking who said what and who wants to be known by what name. Sorry for any earlier confusion--when I'm hot on an idea, I'm not always the most coherent person in the world. "All-inconclusive," indeed! :-) --Fiona Oceanstar fi@grebyn.com
