speaking of trivia, does anyone know what happened to the sigma computer
that was originally used in the community memory project?

I seem to remember (around 1976) looking for a building (and here's the
triva part :-) in San Franciso which housed something called "project
1".  I was young and foolish at the time and I don't think I ever found
it.  But it was a fun trip around the bay area anyway :-) I think I
started that day at SAIL.  what a magic place that was.

back in the day...  when ddj was published in newsprint!
