455.0. "Shalom and Goodbye!" by RAWFSH::MAHLER () Tue Apr 19 1988 10:08

    
    	Hello and Shalom!
    
	As you have noticed, BAGELS has recently moved from
	RAWFSH to IAGO.  The reason for this move is that
	I'm leaving DIGITAL and wanted to make sure that BAGELS
	continued to be available for everyone to access on
	an unrestricted and secure node and I'm very confident
	that Dick Schoeller can provide both of these.

	When I first joined DIGITAL three years ago I was impressed
	by the amount of notesfiles available to the DIGITAL workforce.
	At the same time, however, I couldn't help notice that
	there was no place for DEC's Jewish population to discuss
	issues pertaining to Jewish thought and culture.  Since
	BAGELS inception I've watched it grow in every way imaginable
	and have been very satisfied at it's reception.  Expectedly
	there has been, and always will be, controversy within and
	without the file.  It was my hope that non-Jews would become
	involved with BAGELS and actively participate and am glad that
	this too has happened.  

	I'd like to take this time to thank everyone whose made
    	BAGELS what it is today and hopefully brought more recognition
    	of Jewish culture to those parts of DIGITAL that are open
    	to such enrichment.
    
	All my best to you and yours,

		Shaarei Shalom,

		Michael Mahler

    Where are you going, or is that a state secret?  Kol Hakavod on
    your good work with BAGELS, I for one really appreciate it.  Without
    both you and the great Fred L. leads me to wonder what this file
    will be like.

455.3How to swamp Motti with mail...IAGO::SCHOELLERDick (Gavriel ben Avraham) SchoellerTue Apr 19 1988 16:3610
I have the following from Motti.  They have a UUCP connection and will
shortly have USENET.  So we can expect to see him in s.c.j and t.p.m
occasionally.

Gavriel

	I'll be going to Stratus Computer in Marlboro.
	You can reach me at :

455.6A bit lateIAGO::SCHOELLERDick (Gavriel ben Avraham) SchoellerWed Apr 20 1988 09:375
    All of these good luck messages are a bit late.  DEC normally shows
    people the door immediately when they announce departure for a
    competitor.  So, wait a few days and then deluge him with mail  8^{).

455.7OOPSIAGO::SCHOELLERDick (Gavriel ben Avraham) SchoellerThu Apr 21 1988 09:5413
    I have been informed by Rick LeVine that the that Motti gave me
    was wrong.  Here is the correct address and a description of what
    happened down there:

	DECWRL::"IHNP4!ANVIL!ES!MIKE_MAHLER"

	He got a call from the system manager there; the first day he got
	about 100 messages (I guess a lot of people like him despite what a
	pain in the a*s he can be  ;^)  ) which went into the "reject" bucket
	and had to be sifted through.

    I wish you the best of luck and maybe one day I can meet you face to
    face instead of tube to tube.
