Ruth,

Do you, at this late date, think I make this shit up?  The alleged gentleman
wore socks with images of tropical fish woven into them in a court of law in
the State of New York.  I observed this with my own eyes, and it was
subsequently confirmed by more than one member of the bar.  I believe, but am
not certain that, he wore these socks on the witness stand.

Ralph

PS-- Can it be that people don't wear fish socks in Vermont?

Mark,  Never fear on my account.  Where I'm at the animal droppings, better
known by the highly technical term shit, are applied in the field at the
proper season.

At my advanced age I decided this term that I should take a college course
in children's lit.  I chose the afternoon class rather than the evening one
as it fits better with caring for my Dad, etc.  This means that I am in a
class with traditional college age kids.  The first day the prof, who's a
really hot shit--he and I wil get along really well, asked if there were
any words we wouldn't expect to find in children's literature.  One timid
little thing finally offered "bitch" in a quavering little voice.  Nobody
else said anything.  Not really knowing how far to go I said, "The
traditional forbidden four letter words."  Prof says, "So, what are they?"
So I let 'er rip with a few while the teeny boppers sat there with their
eyes popping out.  Guess they thought their generation invented those words
and us old timers never knew them.  Just like my generation invented sex.
Ruth

I know personally that one of the reasons I liked this list was the fact
that one could tell it the way it was rather than sugar-coat everything.  I
feel that rude langauge is sort of expected from Ralph by now.  I know that
when he was offline due to medical problems, a lot of people missed his off
white color jokes, the same as we miss the off color lifestyle of ex
President Clinton.  Like it or not, Clinton was fun.  Ralph is fun, and can
be helpful at times.  I was kicked off another list because I used a
graphic word that related to animal droppings.  Perhaps I'm wrong, but most
of what is discussed here, is also applied in the field, and any work site
brings out colorful language.  In all due respect to Ruth and the lady from
the National Parks Dept., I would simply say that if we are to be monitored
for colorful language, I would just soon remove myself from the list (not
that anyone would probably care.)  So shall we cast a vote?

Cast stone.   It was very big in the 1920's, perhaps from technological
advances of which I am unaware, with expansive ads by competing companies in
the architectural journals.  The variety of cast stone was, to judge by the
examples left to us on the streets of New York, amazing.  The three-story
orange and brown cast stone base course of DePace & Juster's Italian
Romanesque 1100 Park Avenue (at the northwest corner of 89th and Park) is
deep and rich with surface irregularities and color variations - a near-rival
of the delicious "real" Ohio stone of 820 Park Avenue, at 75th Street, or on
the Federal Reserve bank on Liberty Street.

Am I not looking hard, or has the "art" of cast stone fallen into desuetude?
 All I see is a thin gruel of fake limestone on "contextural" projects, a
miss-by-a-mile imitation of the real thing, without any depth or variation
and, even worse, with poor aging qualities, looking like cheap lineoleum in a
grimy hospital after just a few years.

Has something  happened to the cast stone industry, or is it just in New
York?

Well, I'm not sure about the word, but I did hear one time that the universal symbol had to do with the English bowmen fighting the French.  The middle finger was their "plucking" finger, and so any POW bowmen would have their middle finger removed.  In an ect of defiance, the Englishmen would raise their middle finger and say, "Pluck this!"

  Well, please, someone correct me if I am wrong, but I once heard that the "F" word came from England in which one of the Kings allowed prostitution for a while, so it was called: "Fornication Under Consent of the King."  Was it the Mormons who made it popular with polygamy?  Did I say that, oh no.

I've never been one for buttermilk, except in pancakes.  Tried goat's milk once, straight from the goat.  Couldn't understand the desire.  However, a good goat's milk cheese and a bagette from the Union Sq. Farmer's Market (does that still exist?) make for a great lunch walking up Park Ave. South - where I used to work.  As for cold showers, in my book they're only useful on August nights when the temperature is 85 and it's midnight and there's no croos breeze.

The car supposedly has a bad fuel switch, which might explain why my car konked out in the exact same spot on the thruway.  The mechanic suggested I find another route to work.  To them it's coincidental that it was cold and there were a lot of gelled diesels.  I don't think anything in cars is coincidental.  Must be my inherent cynicism.  So, maybe the mechanic is from California.  He sounds blond, at the very least.

  Buttermilk and goat's milk are also on the list of things I've mistakenly drunk once in my life, and will never willingly go near again.  Also, I gave away my lifetime supply of cold showers; I had a roommate in College who liked them, so I told him he could have all mine.  On the other hand, I have learned to like beer, so it's not as if I am 1000% resistant to change, as most people who know me believe.

  Your car shit sounds extremely distressing.  I thought you dopes who live up in the North Woods know all about all this cold weather shit, and would have thought your mechanics know about car shit in cold weather.  What are they, a bunch of California beach bunnies like me?

  Hope the Little Pams are done puking, and that you and the woggish Mr. Pam are OK, digestively speaking.

Ruth,

Do you, at this late date, think I make this shit up?  The alleged gentleman
wore socks with images of tropical fish woven into them in a court of law in
the State of New York.  I observed this with my own eyes, and it was
subsequently confirmed by more than one member of the bar.  I believe, but
am not certain that, he wore these socks on the witness stand.

Ralph

PS-- Can it be that people don't wear fish socks in Vermont?

From my point of view, it is everywhere, and certainly not restricted to
cast stone. See any number of ]<en's tracts bemoaning the loss of
craftsmanship. Any of these treatments are pretty much nearly lost to
the ages. Concrete work especially has lost any semblance of art. It
seems that no one cares anymore. Boo hoo hoo.

The drive to standardization and economization strike me as the death
knell. These trends are what drove down the demand for craftsmen. See
any number of Ruskin's tracts railing against the loss of craftsmanship.

Now the client doesn't even know they can have it different if they wish
to pay for it. Of course, none wish to pay for it, so it's pain they
don't feel. Our society has anesthetized itself.

We have an addition going up on the 1920s school in one of our historic
districts; it is composed of rough-textured wire cut dark earth tone
craftsman-style brick with cast concrete window sills, inset cast
concrete lozenges, and concrete parapet. The sample cast concrete sills
and lozenges in the mock-up panel are a good color match, but the
texture is simply not there. The original has a sand surface texture,
the sample is smooth as a baby's bottom [can I say that here?]. Same
with the mortar, which is very gritty and textural in the original, and
smooth bag cement in the sample. I jokingly told the jobsite supervisor
that if we could just beat the sills with a chain, we could antique them
better to match the originals.=20

I think he's under a lot of stress on this job. After I left, he
immediately called the design architect and told him that I wanted the
sills beat up.

I want something beat up over this, but not the sills. There's a lost
art to getting them the right patina...administering beatings with
chains is not it.

Cuyler,

How nice to know that  government officials up there, which we tend to think
of as merely boring, are in fact every bit as stupid as our generally more
loudmouthed officials down here.  On the other hand, my longstanding view of
communism is that if  capitalism is as fucked up as we know it to be, how
much unspeakably worse must communism be?

There was a time in America when the craftsman was in great demand, and
valued.  Then again, the craftsman was true, and not pretending to be
something he wasn't as we have all seen the effects.  Unfortunately, many of
the old tricks and skills were buried with the men who held them as trade
secrets.  That is why it is important to participate in some of the groups
that are doing something about it like PTN, and Virginia Lime Works.  (No I
wasn't paid to say that.)  They promote sharing of skills.  Back in the old
days it was just as expensive for the creation as it is today, but the values
of people were different.  So much of what goes on display is fake, much like
the people who possess the display.  It isn't what they personally value
anymore, but rather what they think their neigbors value, which gives them a
false sense of acceptance.  Is the key not in education?  Educating the
craftsman and educating the client.

I was told while doing trade shows that the products I was offering were
being scoped out by others only to be mass produced at a later date.  In
Matthew we read "Where your treasure is, that's where your heart will be
also."  It seems the treasure is money in most cases.  Sad but true.
Anything that becomes popular is soon mass produced and on sale at Walmart.
So everyone can display a fake, for their fake egos to impress their fake
friends.

You were probably right in that beating with a chain restored the sill,
however, as is true with most application, one should do it at night, unseen
by fake eyes, that begat critical mouths.  Then again, maybe i have missed
the point all together.

There's a lost art to getting them the right patina...administering beatings
with chains is not it.

Dan,

If you can induce Twybil he may tell you his story about the chain beated
board.

No, actually the color they tried is nowhere near the original color of
cold grey white; theirs was a light tan/beige the color of new baby
soiled diapers.

Has something  happened to the cast stone industry, or is it just in New
York?

A lot has happened to the cast stone industry... mostly it is driven by who
pays for it (the market) and what those who pay want done in respect of how
much they want to pay. There is an industry association and they do technical
research and issue publications and hold conferences.

The big money in cast stone (concrete castings) though I think is in concrete
pipe. Concrete pipe leads to capital that can in turn be invested in
aesthetic work, and so often you have firms that actually know a lot about
concrete pipe who decide to venture into aesthetic work as a market niche.
They may know about concrete pipe, but they know less about aesthetics, and
when they venture into histo presto they may know even less. If you look at
the surface area of a concrete pipe you may notice that it is not exactly
exciting stuff.

If there is no capital driven market for cast stone then it will not be
explored as a creative medium, setting aside the brilliant recent
developments in lawn elves, frogs, and prancing deer.

It is a challenge to imitate an existing manufactured product and make it
look authentic to the original. There are less than a handfull of small
manufacturers who have over the last 15 years, at least in the NYC market,
developed their skills specific to the histo presto market, such as Alan Barr
with Town House Restorations. The "brownstone" steps on the New 42dn Street
Theater are a good example.

I enjoy the challenge of repairing damaged cast stone, either historic or
new, and making it look whole. An early attempt for us at this was on the 2nd
Ave. Theater where we had to make Salmon colored patches and work chips of
white marble into them. In some respects on the theater it worked, in some
areas it continues to look like ____. That project was a classic in nightmare
management... connected with the site foreman who was caught naked by the
esteemed resident out on a Penthouse terrace at his previous project. When
concrete pipe manufaturers make limestone headers for windows on new work it
is amazing how the installers chip, scrape and otherwise muck up the pieces,
including leaving upsidedown black boot prints. So you get a 25 story school
at Battery Park with a brick & precast/limestone skin with mucked up headers
on the first floor, that obviously cannot be removed, and an architect with a
hard __ and the power of "punch list" holding up $500,000. Sometimes you can
make a lot of money with a bucket of colored mud.

Another answer to your question is GFRC. Lighter, easier, faster in
production and installation. New construction in general wants less expense,
and if there is going to be an expense for new construction, then it is more
likely that premium products, such as natural stone would be used.

Cast stone rarely seems to exist for the aesthetic possiblities of the
material in and of itself, but as a faux representation of other masonry
materials such as stone or terra cotta.

Historic sites, for example are being "Devolutionized" with bureaucrats
saying with big smiles at public meetings that the whole point of investing
millions of tax dollars into restoration and preservation of the places for
decades has always been with the idea of giving them up and letting them rot
one day.

Cuyler,

This reminds me of a black bear restoration program in Vermont I saw on TV
and how this guy raised three cubs, they were so cute, and then when they
were not so cute he let them go into the wild, with radio beacon collars and
all worried they would not get on too well in NATURE, and then they showed
another guy, what looked like a poor sap in hunting gear that could have been
Sharphooter's plumber, that shot the male bear -- the great hunter was almost
crying, least I imagined he was, while describing how he made the decision to
shoot, a very clinical, "If the bear moves towards me into that clearing
where I can get a clean shot then I shot him." So then I imagine all the
wildlife restoration folk told the guy the "long story", about the time he
got the radio beacon touting bear hauled out of his PU and into the
taxidermist's shop -- if the story and his infamous anti-PETA appearance on
PBS did not drive him to drink I don't know what would.

"So shall we cast a vote?"

BP has RULES... and has always had rules... concerning the use of obscene
language... Rule #5 Blatant obscenity is discouraged, the expectation is that
you will make an effort to be creative.

Please take note of the requirement for "creative" use of vulgar words. It is
through the creative spirit that foul and disgusting words transend
themselves into art. Let us not speak foul in folly, but speak in earnest and
with a measured cadence to elicit smiles and trembles, before earning
ourselves disgust and the weighted acrimony of lurkers.

Thanks,
Shaman

Dear Mr. Al Thiemer:

Do you need to turn up your hearing aid more? I know that you don't like
to appear vain, so you tend to just nod your head as though you
understood, even when that is not the case. This from the BP Archives,
not more than 90 days ago, during our discussion of your 20th
Anniversary Mac:

  I think that is a slurry wagon if you're referring to the smell, mess, etc. making following it a problem.  If you have scat, or "sugar tit" as Deb's mom would say, (at least when she wanted to say a "safe" expletive) on your surrey (with or without fringe on top) you might have a horse with a very bad problem.

  Nothing better than following a surrey wagon down the road!  I'm not sure though, which smells worse, that or the cabbage in August.

  Dear Mr. Al Thiemer:

  Do you need to turn up your hearing aid more? I know that you don't like
  to appear vain, so you tend to just nod your head as though you
  understood, even when that is not the case. This from the BP Archives,
  not more than 90 days ago, during our discussion of your 20th
  Anniversary Mac:

Why would my email server no longer accept BP email?  Is there something
changed on your end?  We have a new spam filter, but I've asked about
whether this blocks BP specifically, or just the digest mode.  I get the
notice, but the contents are deleted.

We've had something recently on one of our home PCs, which is schizophrenic and has multiple email ids on it, whereby we retrieve the mail, but the contents are missing.  If we shut down the email and restart it (Outlook Express), it seems then to show the contents just fine.

I have read of, and been told tales of, the contributions made by
various Ladies to the beginnings of preservation.  So much of the
credit in the creation myths of preservation are heaped upon the
several male individuals enthroned at certain institutions of learning,
collecting and amusement.  But I rise to acknowledge the contribution
made by the Ladies past and present.  I would not refuse them the
credit, nor the mud, the blood, the beer, nor the colorful technical
language.  (Not that I'm capable of watching my language that
carefully.)

What a thought for the morning?!  To slam together visions of the DAR
and the current Ladies of the NPS!

It feels alright.  I don't think my head will explode.

Back to work.  Let's make history!

(I know Bryan...but I love to say it!)

Ilene,

Nothing has changed on the BP end.

PC Magazine's latest issue describes how software anti-spam programs filter
and it may be that the message headers for BP appear to the software too
similar to headers for spam. There seems to be a problem finding a good
balance between automatic sifting of spam and blocking of friendly mail. The
articles in PC Mag, regardless of our proud Mac users, gives some good tips
on how to diminish spam, either by online habits or through software. I also
enjoyed the article on how ADSL vs. Cable modems connect to the Internet
backbone.

HEADLINE: Streetscapes/421 East 61st Street; From House Museum to Historic
19th-Century Hotel

By  CHRISTOPHER GRAY  (copyright assigned to Half-Pint)

   IT wasn't built as a house, so why call it a house museum? That's what the
Colonial Dames of America decided 10 years ago when they began to reposition
the
1799 Abigail Adams Smith Museum, at 421 East 61st Street, as a historic hotel.
Now they are near the end of a $1.5 million capital campaign, and the results
offer an interesting twist on the usual formula.

   What began as a barn, became a hotel and only later a country house is so
old
it's off-angle from the city street plan. It was planned in 1795 as the barn
for
Mount Vernon, the country estate of Col. William S. Smith and his wife,
Abigail.
Smith was an aide to George Washington; his wife was the daughter of John
Adams,
the second President of the United States. They planned a main house near what
is now 61st Street and First Avenue but lost the entire property before
completion in 1796; they probably never spent a night there.

    In 1798 William T. Robinson, a merchant, purchased the unfinished
buildings,
and it must have been he who had the date 1799 laid in bricks among the ragged
stone of the rear facade of the museum.

   Robinson advertised the estate for sale in The New York Evening Post on
Feb.
28, 1806, as a 23-acre "country seat . . . near the 5 mile stone." Robinson's
ad
described the barn as "a very ornamental building, and well arranged for
convenience and use," with stables for six horses, a coach room, shelter for
cattle, pigeon houses and a loft for 30 tons of hay.

   This "beautiful situation" included an orchard with apple, pear, plum,
cherry, apricot and nectarine trees, and two wharves at the foot of 61st
Street.
But perhaps the private estate idea was too ambitious, because by 1808 the
main
house was operating as the "Mount Vernon Hotel" with a one-mile race track.
But
the main house burned in 1826 and Joseph Hart purchased the surviving barn and
renovated it as an inn, the new Mount Vernon Hotel.

   In 1829 James Stuart, Earl [ERROR: Duke] of Lenox, visited the hotel, a
trip he described
in "Three Years in North America," published in 1833. He praised "the view of
the river and of the gay sailing craft constantly passing, and tossed about by
the eddies in every direction." He reported that a stage went down to the
settled part of the city two or three times a day and "during the summer
months
the great mass of the people of New York leave the town in carriages, gigs or
on
horseback, for an hour or two before sunset . . . toward the beautiful parts
of
the island including the East River shore."

   "Near as we are to New York," he wrote in surprise, "and within 300 yards
of
the high road, there is neither a shutter nor a bar to a window in the house.
Clothes are laid out to bleach all night without the slightest fear of their
being carried off."

   In 1833 Jeremiah Towle bought the hotel and made it into a country house.
It
must have been Towle who put in the high-style trim on the interior -- the
fluted columns and rosettes, and some astoundingly rich Greek Revival mantles,
which are no longer in the building. Towle's two daughters, Isabella and Mary,
continued to live in the house past 1900, by which time the area had been
taken
over by industry and tenements.

   IN 1903 a newspaper reporter visited the house and noted that "the
beautiful
garden . . . has gone forever and the house itself will probably soon meet the
same fate."

   The Towles sold two years later and the Standard Gas Light Company took
possession. Census records indicate they housed their own workers in the
building. By 1912 Standard Gas had dwarfed the building with three giant
gasholders to the east and north, creating just the kind of picturesque
contrast
that the genteel settlers of Sutton Place appreciated when that colony was
begun
in 1919.

   In that year Jane Teller Robinson took over the house, apparently on a
lease
from the company. She renovated the place as "Jane Teller's Mansion" and
began a
program of spinning and weaving to enable poor people to manufacture their own
clothing.

   In 1921 Robinson, who organized the "Society for the Revival of Household
Industries and Domestic Arts," relayed something of her missionary zeal to The
New York Times. She wanted to recapture an earlier time of self sufficiency,
noting that "up to 1830 nearly every house had its own flax wheel and wool
wheel
and 90 percent of all goods was made at home." Brochures from her organization
said that they were selling regularly to Abercrombie & Fitch, and that they
custom-made clothes from the sheep's wool of their clients.

   Just before she took over the house the Greek Revival mantles were removed
by
Lewis B. Gautrey [ERROR: Gawtry], a banker, to his house at 58 East 66th
Street, where they
remain. At some point during her occupancy The New York Tribune reported that
plumbers had found a complete skeleton under the floorboards on the second
floor, but no further explanation was published.

   Apparently Standard Gas left the house intact because it was on a high
shelf
of rock. In 1924 the company sold the house to the Colonial Dames of America,
a
patriotic and genealogical organization, for use as its headquarters. By that
time the building was being described as the house of the Smiths, apparently
confusing the barn they didn't finish with the residence they didn't finish.

   Later the organization opened 421 East 61st Street as a house museum filled
with antique furniture, focusing on its tenuous connection to the Smiths and
the
early Republic.

   According to Barbara Hayward, director of the museum, it was accredited in
1983 by the American Association of Museums, but with the advice that the
basic
tenet needed restudy. In 1988 the Colonial Dames of America decided to recast
the building as an early 19th-century hotel. "There are many house museums but
we're the only site that depicts hotel life," Mrs. Hayward said.

   Downstairs the main hall is portrayed as the dining room, with an intact
kitchen off to one side, and a bar room and men's card room off to the other
side. On the second floor, the central area is set up as a ballroom, with a
ladies' parlor off to one side, and a hotel bedroom on the other. Much of the
furniture is in the Second Empire style, to the period of the 1820's of the
Mount Vernon Hotel.

   I N the last few years the building has got new exterior woodwork,
roofing, shutters and windows, and Mrs. Hayward expects the final stages of
the
renovation -- pointing and stonework on the facade -- to begin this spring.
The
8,500 visitors every year come to see the interiors, the early kitchen
equipment, and for events like the "Washington's Birthday Ball" at 2 P.M. on
Feb. 22, with the Steuben House Dancers demonstrating (and teaching) period
dances like Fishers' Hornpipe, Haste to the Wedding, Black Joke and Hole in
Wall. Tickets for the event, at $5 for adults and $3 for children under 12 and
members, must be reserved, at (212) 838-6878. The museum is open Tuesdays
through Sundays, 11 A.M. to 4 P.M. Admission is $3 for adults, $2 for students
and the elderly, free for members and children under 12.

   It is a curious building -- barn, hotel, residence, museum -- emblematic
of a
search by such historic sites everywhere to venture beyond the gentry worship
of
their origins earlier in this century.

I think that is a slurry wagon if you're referring to the smell, mess, etc.
making following it a problem.  If you have scat, or "sugar tit" as Deb's
mom would say, (at least when she wanted to say a "safe" expletive) on your
surrey (with or without fringe on top) you might have a horse with a very
bad problem.

Nothing better than following a surrey wagon down the road!  I'm not sure
though, which smells worse, that or the cabbage in August.

Dan,

Thank God somebody remembers all the shit I forget.  Evidently the advanced
age is getting to me.  Whether it's a brain fart or a ministroke or a
maladjustment of the medication, I definitely seem to be a victim of CRS.

Meanwhile, what is HTH?

Cuyler,

So if the Iraqis come and buy your parks and Heritage Houses, they can say
whatever they want in whatever language they choose, whether  Lisa and Ruth
(or their Canadian Counterparts) like it or not?  Are they free not to talk
to the RCMP's or the FBI?

Maybe you should consider coming back to upstate Noo Yawk and see that Imre
Inre guy at IHS you've been talking about

Seems to me that we also had a discussion of honey wagons and related
conveyances some months ago, which appear to indicate that not onlt does
everything turn to shit, but it returns to shit.

Hope This Helps.

Nice, Pam, real nice.  Making fun of the mnemonically challenged.  Next

Ah, Ralph, you know I love you, halfheimers and everything, including the incredibly useful house advice!

I'm not trying to change my email address again (keeping my head low, and maybe now I'm in an environment that's less condusive to layoffitis). I think the local email servers have an email address of the day contest.  I've seen so many different versions of my new email address that I don't know what to make of it.  "They" say there's a plan afoot to standardize this stuff, but I'll see it when I believe it.

  Nice, Pam, real nice.  Making fun of the mnemonically challenged.  Next thing, you'll change you email address again.  Just wait and see which of these OTHER assholes gives you such worthless advice on what's wrong with your house.

  Sniff.

From: Steven A Riess <[log in to unmask]>

I have been invited by a major publisher to edit a 600,000 word Encyclopedia=
=20
of Major League Baseball Teams.=A0 This two-volume reference work is intende=
d=20
to fill a significant gap in the reference field.=A0 While there are=20
encyclopedias of individual baseball teams, this work will consist of essays=
=20
detailing the history of all the current thirty major league teams.=A0 The=20
intent is for the articles to be scholarly, analytical narratives that go=20
beyond the recounting of team glories year by year.=A0 My aim is to have ess=
ays=20
written that not only recount each team's annual campaigns, their players,=20
and managers, but also provide a social and economic history of each club. I=
=20
do not expect these to works of original research.=A0 I'm pretty sure nearly=
=20
everything one would need to fulfill the assignment is available in secondar=
y=20
sources. I am looking for essays that contextualize team histories in the=20
broader picture of sport and the development of their histories. I am lookin=
g=20
for essays that not only examine the teams' performance on the field, but of=
f=20
the field as well. The essays will deal in depth with the teams as urban=20
business enterprises that deal with labor issues, local governments and=20
politicians, and such major economic matters as the construction of=20
ballparks.=A0 Hence an essay on the White Sox will examine Comiskey's=20
development of his early ballparks, and will also consider how current owner=
s=20
of the team secured public financing of the ballpark. In fact, a major issue=
=20
for the essays since the 1950s would be the evolving relationship between=20
teams and cities as owners moved or threatened to move franchises to secure=20
financial support from local governments.=A0 I also hope contributors will=20
consider the particularistic relationship of a team to their hometowns.

This letter is being sent to baseball experts in NASSH, who comprise a core,=

but certainly not all baseball scholars.=A0 While this project is=20
intellectually a feasible and significant project, there are practical=20

Sharpshooter,

Tell me, seriously, is this how encyclopedic books come into existence?

What I gather is the assignment is to read all the secondary sources a hack
can find on baseball, steal what the sources say, artfully paraphrase if you
will, and pump out a small portion of 600,000 words.

Since I know or care next to nothing about baseball possibly this would make
a good weekend hobby? Gab & Eti dust 1st base!

We have a wonderful group, known locally as the "Preservation Ladies"
for perceived historical reasons.  We meet once a month for lunch and
discussion.  Most are graduates of the EMU HP program, plus a few like
me who did not.  We have become a force to be reckoned with once riled,
and it's great networking with a bunch of people with preservation being
the common thread.  A couple men are on the invite list, but they rarely
come;  it really is just us Ladies.

I have read of, and been told tales of, the contributions made by
various Ladies to the beginnings of preservation.  So much of the credit
in the creation myths of preservation are heaped upon the several male
individuals enthroned at certain institutions of learning, collecting
and amusement.  But I rise to acknowledge the contribution made by the
Ladies past and present.  I would not refuse them the credit, nor the
mud, the blood, the beer, nor the colorful technical language.  (Not
that I'm capable of watching my language that
carefully.)

What a thought for the morning?!  To slam together visions of the DAR
and the current Ladies of the NPS!

It feels alright.  I don't think my head will explode.

Back to work.  Let's make history!

(I know Bryan...but I love to say it!)

I thought the big money was in the asthetically pleasing, ever present,
"Jersey barrier" which seems to have migrated north and now graces our
roadsides in Vermont in ever increasing numbers.  I just wish some of your
"graffiti artists" would migrate with them to make them more colorful.  I
love the "graffiti" that they paint and get angry whenever I see a program
on TV about how they are persecuted by folks in the city.  These people are
real artists and do what they can to make things like dull train cars and
plywood temporary walls more attractive.  There, that's my rant for the
day, week, month, whatever.  Ruth

A lot has happened to the cast stone industry... mostly it is driven by who
pays for it (the market) and what those who pay want done in respect of how
much they want to pay. There is an industry association and they do
technical research and issue publications and hold conferences.

The big money in cast stone (concrete castings) though I think is in
concrete pipe. Concrete pipe leads to capital that can in turn be invested
in aesthetic work, and so often you have firms that actually know a lot
about concrete pipe who decide to venture into aesthetic work as a market
niche. They may know about concrete pipe, but they know less about
aesthetics, and when they venture into histo presto they may know even
less. If you look at the surface area of a concrete pipe you may notice
that it is not exactly exciting stuff.

  I don't think socks with fish woven into them are all THAT weird, whether
in court or not.  As to fish without socks, we don't do that here in
southern VTbut they may do it up in the Northeast Kingdom where I've heard
there are some VERY strange folk.

We did have one old gent when I was a kid who never wore anything on his
feet.  I've seen him at Town Meeting barefoot and folks used to come for
miles around to see him out gathering sap in the snow barefoot.  But he was
unusual.  Ruth

Ruth,

Do you, at this late date, think I make this shit up?  The alleged
gentleman wore socks with images of tropical fish woven into them in a
court of law in the State of New York.  I observed this with my own eyes,
and it was subsequently confirmed by more than one member of the bar.  I
believe, but am not certain that, he wore these socks on the witness stand.

Ralph

PS-- Can it be that people don't wear fish socks in Vermont?

Yikes. the "Ladies" of fame of which you speak are likely the Mount Vernon
Ladies Association and Pamela Cunningham c.1850s;  Without whom the "Laddies"
might not have discovered a lucrative niche in the "history trade" - taken
over the field - and relegated those "Ladies" to the docent chair.

I
love the "graffiti" that they paint and get angry whenever I see a
program
on TV about how they are persecuted by folks in the city.  These people
are
real artists and do what they can to make things like dull train cars
and
plywood temporary walls more attractive.  There, that's my rant for the
day, week, month, whatever.  Ruth<

Well maybe in some cases, maybe in a lot of cases, it shows off how ugly
the city can be when people don't consider the view from the tram or
whatever as of any importance. Having just returned from a trip to
Germany, studying historic roof framing technique, I can tell you it's
one thing to see a fabulous piece of spray paint art on an industrial
grade visual barrier and completely another to see it on 500+ year old
stone work. What's beautiful is without doubt in the eye of the
beholder, and there is obviously a difference between what a Woodstock
vintage histo prestoid sees, and what a 21st century skinhead with a can
of spray paint does.

Rudy's rant of the morning.

Not exactly what I meant.  The mothers liked me more than their daughters,

Not so sure "every" building was photographed, but quite a number of historic
buildings were photo'd in CT; actually a program surprizingly similar to what
the Colonial Dames did in the 1920s-30s.  The WPA program is also similar to
HABS.  HABS/HAER is digitally accessible at www.loc.gov (Library of Congress)
in the American Memory archives, at least in part.  CTs WPA project files are
located at the CT State Library in Hartford.

Ralph,

Yeah, and you probably think all those leaves are pretty in the fall too.

Having been here in lovely NY when the subway cars were all graffitied, and
seeing graffiti spread to freeway bridges in LA, it ain't so attractive.
Kinda like dogs peeing on everything, only you can see it forever.

Jeez, Louise (started out as Jezz Lousie).

In that context, Mac referred to the computers made by Apple of Cupertino,
CA.  Talk about PC-centrics.  And no, I am not aware of sheehee; would the

Formidable - is what I have heard.  Of course, there have been many since all
over the US;  being from New England myself, I am mostly familiar with how
professionalism evolved in these here parts (more private than governmental;
more localized than regional - although SPNEA did make the attempt
c.1910-1950s)

Jefferson Airplane:  can't remember at the moment, but if you hum a few bars
I'll bet it will strike a bell.

They have them in Jersey City, also, where they are also called tax photos.
It is my impression/vague recollection that they were made in 1937 or 38.

Ahh, Volunteers...

I like the version from the original Woodstock Album.  As I recall it starts
out with an intro (from Grace Slick?) to the effect of "You've heard the
groovy music now it's time for Morning Maniac Music...yeah, it's a new
dawn..."

I gather they were the first band on that day and opened their set with
"Volunteers."

I like the version from the original Woodstock Album.  As I recall it starts
out with an intro (from Grace Slick?) something like "You've heard the
groovy music now it's time for morning maniac music...yeah, it's a new
dawn..."

I gather they were the first band on that day and opened their set with
"Volunteers."

Larry,

Unpleasant.

"Firefighters fought bitter cold and outdated construction techniques for
several hours before the late-morning fire was called under control..."
Outdated construction techniques... what an odd phrase. I assume the outdated
construction technique was the stupid welder removing the fire escape that
set the building on fire.

What About That Guy In The Times This Week Who Blasts Off Historic Chewing
Gum Spots With A Secret-Formula Detergent?

If he keeps getting enough press exposure then he will get spotted and tagged
by the spirit of DEP and he will also need to suck up his dirty water before
it runs off.

SheeHee is the new, socio-politically correct gender-neutral pronoun.
Endorsed by Art Linkletter and the League of  Nations.

special favor's ads in the Village Voice. No room for PeeWee Herman, though.

relegated those "Ladies" to the docent chair.

Crass capitalist commercialism -- I hope the D.A.R. ladies come through so we
can actually make the needed repairs on one of our "museum" projects. All
hail the D.A.R.! I hope they have some idea what they are looking at, on
their upcomming progress tour, when they see all the holes that we have left
in the wall and that they do not jump to the conclusion that we are
attempting to turn the mansion into a bath house.

Understand that this is my new neighborhood, that my 1835 house is
across a very narrow street, and that I watched the entire process from
the sidewalk and then from inside my house.  Today they are still
removing salvageable stuff at the same time they are installing new
trusses on the fire-damaged rear wing.  Tenants will be back in their
apartments within a month!!!  I'm not sure what they'll do with the
historic wallpaper and warped floors...  Scary!

I watched the entire process from the sidewalk and then from inside my house.


Ilene,

Not very pleasant at all. Fire is not nice. Neither is nice it to have a mess
quite so close. Please keep us posted.

I was reading this morning on the subway about Aldous Huxley's reaction to
when his house burnt down with his accumulated life's work inside. The fire
fighters had to restrain him from running in to save his manuscripts... and
then later he made a front by telling the press that it relieved him to have
a blank slate with which to start over.

love the "graffiti" that they paint and get angry whenever

I'm not ranting... I was attending a little histo presto social educational
session at one of our more illustrious historic houses in NYC. We were all
huddled in a cozy brick basement kitchen with chairs and slides, warm on a
cold night. One of the guest speakers, who turned out to be a friend of my
famous artist friend, gave a presentation on his documentary study of
graffitti art in the 70's - 80's, when it was REALLY blooming, particularly
as it was practiced in the South Bronx. He was approaching the aesthetic from
the grassroot social-art perspective (an urban voice fighting for survival),
as well as the historical context -- a social art movement no longer active.
The cultivated Greenwich Village dames present, who are forever dealing with
their histo presto stoops getting tagged, wanted to lynch him then and there.
A few things have changed in NYC -- Greenwich Village is where wealthy
non-bohemians live, and the graffiti is not nearly as spontaneously
interesting as it used to be.

Transit installed car scrubbers to automate the graffiti removal, for one
thing, and the business of anti-graffiti coatings has boomed. Now where there
is graffiti it tends to be where there is so much poverty that nobody would
ever think to remove it (particularly the memorials to kids that died from
drugs or gang violence), or it occurs in places where it is encouraged.
Across from our lot in Brooklyn the bus company has the entire wall, say 20'
x 100' painted with an incredibly active mural... a few years ago they had it
painted out and the original artists return and re-paint the wall.

Now, this is hot & trendy Williamsburg, where all the young wannabe
"artistes" of the city are congregating (what used to be Greenwich Village)
and nearby to the prospersous Brooklyn Brewery. Art rules. It also subdues
and forces out the natives, bohemian & otherwise, that can no longer afford
the escalating rents. MFA land is what we get, probably not such a bad thing,
excepting for the facade of "deep meaning" it imparts to a complex community
of cultures overlaid on cultures, and all because of the technlogical
proximity of a subway stop. Not too many years back people were still getting
shot around here and now we have tourists looking for Thai food.

The best graffiti to see for NYC may be in the movies, unless one is inclined
to explore the outer boroughs... so in Vermont the viewing for graffiti may
be a whole lot better than it is here.

I know that growing up in the West I was led to believe (through the media)
that all subways had graffiti on the train cars.  When in the DC area, I was
shocked that there wasn't any.  This leads me to believe that the cars must
be stored somewhere at night where the artists cannot find them.

A musician/composer tenant told me he lost all his manuscripts to water
damage.  He was in shock that first day, but is probably just plain
angry by now, mostly because of the shoddy handling of the situation and
general poor maintenance, always using the cheapest labor to accomplish
the work.  Hmmm.

Are we talking just Empire style-- lots of Napoleonic bees and curves? 1820
should be about right on that.

Heidi,

Whoever it was (I'm now too old to remember so far back) specifically talked
about the 2nd Empire style, which is why I'm being such a snot about it.
1820's seems to me a little late for the first Empire, even, but I suppose
news traveled rather more slowly in the pre-internet days.

Just wait til the future Little Heidis ask you what kind of computer you had
when you were a little girl.  I forgot-- you're so young, you probably DID
have one.

Ralph

It was the golden age of computers. Radio Shack TRS 80, Atari with Space
Invaders, programing in BASIC. I had my first computer at the end of high
school, thank you very much-- my mom said it was money well spent, since she
didn't feel it was necessary to help me type my papers anymore. (And just for
Dan...) it was a cute little Mac. Much more sensible machine than this PC
monster I have now.

And heck, I didn't even need to own a computer. I dated all the geeks in
college-- one gave me the password to the whole Penn State computer system
once. I remember kissing him by the romantic light of the amber screens in
the computer lab. And even with that, my GPA was still in the toilet. *sigh*

Those were the days.

When I was in my senior year of high school, my parents gave me a 1926 black
Underwood typewriter.  Even though it was an old one (not I might say, given
because it was an antique) it worked pretty darn good.  Electric typewriters
were few and far between - none at all in the school classroom - we all
learned on manuals ("Throw that carriage!") .  The used Underwood was all
they could afford and I was not only appreciative, but delighted! to have my
very own typewriter.   It served me well at the time, and I still have it.
It now serves me as a bookend and sits right near my PC, fax, scanner etc.

As far as I'm concerned, the best thing about computers is that they function
as an editing typewriter.

Hell, yes.  Everybody knows Macs are watertight, impact resistant, and

Ralph,  You apparently don't really like that sort of art.  I find it
attractive and have found lots of uglier stuff hung on walls in fancy homes

Ralph,

Yeah, and you probably think all those leaves are pretty in the fall too.

Having been here in lovely NY when the subway cars were all graffitied, and
seeing graffiti spread to freeway bridges in LA, it ain't so attractive.
Kinda like dogs peeing on everything, only you can see it forever.

Cross-posted from H-Urban...

From: Steven A Riess <[log in to unmask]>

I have been invited by a major publisher to edit a 600,000 word
Encyclopedia of Major League Baseball Teams.  This two-volume reference
work is intended to fill a significant gap in the reference field.  While
there are encyclopedias of individual baseball teams, this work will
consist of essays detailing the history of all the current thirty major
league teams.  The intent is for the articles to be scholarly, analytical
narratives that go beyond the recounting of team glories year by year.  My
aim is to have essays written that not only recount each team's annual
campaigns, their players, and managers, but also provide a social and
economic history of each club. I do not expect these to works of original
research.  I'm pretty sure nearly everything one would need to fulfill the
assignment is available in secondary sources. I am looking for essays that
contextualize team histories in the broader picture of sport and the
development of their histories. I am looking for essays that not only
examine the teams' performance on the field, but off the field as well. The
essays will deal in depth with the teams as urban business enterprises that
deal with labor issues, local governments and politicians, and such major
economic matters as the construction of ballparks.  Hence an essay on the
White Sox will examine Comiskey's development of his early ballparks, and
will also consider how current owners of the team secured public financing
of the ballpark. In fact, a major issue for the essays since the 1950s
would be the evolving relationship between teams and cities as owners moved
or threatened to move franchises to secure financial support from local
governments.  I also hope contributors will consider the particularistic
relationship of a team to their hometowns.

This letter is being sent to baseball experts in NASSH, who comprise a
core, but certainly not all baseball scholars.  While this project is
intellectually a feasible and significant project, there are practical
considerations.  I am looking to you for some input as to viability.  We
know there are a sufficient number of experts to undertake the project, but
there are practical considerations, namely time and money.   I am
indicating below the approximate length of contributions as I envision
them, along with compensation.  The compensation will include a stipend and
a copy of the two volume work (the encyclopedia will sell for $150 a
volume).  The stipends vary depending on the length of the contribution.
Stipends for the longer entries are real money, however, the cash
compensation is certainly far below what each author's input should merit
if I had an unlimited budget.  The publisher has budgeted $10,000 for the
thirty entries and $10,000 for visual materials. The author's sole
responsibility is to complete a first-rate essay.  All editorial work,
including indexing will be done by the publisher.  It would certainly be
possible for authors to split assignments, especially for teams like the
Braves that have moved a lot.

I am not asking anyone to commit themselves to the project, but frankly am
looking for interest or lack of interest.   Please contact me if you are
potentially interested. Please contact me if you are not interested and let
me know why.

Hard copy paper is what he lost.  I don't know about his computer
preferences.  I saw his old record album collection, still in its
cabinet.  I told him to get those out and separated to make sure there
is no mold or sticking between the paper covers.  Even though the place

Properly configured, they would have put the fire out. What do you think
the Firewire port they invented is for?

I think the fire fighting features were removed as part of the deal for
the loan from Evil Bill a few years back.  That's where the rainbow
color went too.  But I still say, "cut me, do I not bleed rainbow?"

My powerbook 3400 will soon join the Quadra, the Color Classic, the
Newton, the Classic II and the Original Mac 128 (upgraded to a 512KE),
in the basement.  Its sad.  Kind of like a family tomb.

I saw a Lisa in a pile of junk in a building in need of the special
ministering of those dudes in the white space suits.  Now THAT's sad!
(That ought to separate the nubile youngsters from the old folks who
remember the band before Wings.)

I wondered if "The Cry" was specified so I looked up the full lyric (from
http://www.purelyrics.com/index.php ):


 Jefferson Airplane
Volunteers (1969)
Volunteers

Look what's happening out in the streets
Got a revolution Got to revolution
Hey I'm dancing down the streets
Got a revolution Got to revolution
Ain't it amazing all the people I meet
Got a revolution Got to revolution
One generation got old
One generation got soul
This generation got no destination to hold
Pick up the cry
Hey now it's time for you and me
Got a revolution Got to revolution
Come on now we're marching to the sea
Got a revolution Got to revolution
Who will take it from you
We will and who are we
We are volunteers of America
