“non illegimatis carborundum est” – hell yeah! What’s Goin On has been brought to you by the letters D & G and the number 6 (days lost to detox after ECMA). Advertising makes this publication FREE, though didn’t quite work out again this issue. Subscriptions are available @ 20 bucks for 12 issues, however, and that would be helpful. What’s Goin On is distributed during the last week of the month and is printed on recycled paper. This is an independent publication, and as such, advertisers are in no way responsible for its content. In return, What’s Goin On assumes no liability beyond the price of a purchased advertisement. Contents remain property and responsibility of the authors. (c) 1996 What’s Goin On
