+Subject: re: Parskip into footnotes
+
+        Thomas Sippel writes:
+        I am getting increasingly allergic to paragraph indents in text that
+        is broken up with many display items, such as technical documentation.
+
+        The parskip package gets rid of most of these, but footnotes still
+        come a paragraph indent and no paragraph separation space - grrr
+
+        Does anybody have a style file that addresses this ?
+
+The parskip package is new to me.  However, assuming it does the trick for all
+other cases of concern, it's easy to change the way paragraphing is done in
+footnotes.  A footnote is typeset by the \@makefntext command.  This command
+is defined by the style file; it will be called in an enviroment where
+\@parboxrestore has been called, so among other things both \parskip and
+\parindent have been reset to 0 pt.
+
+Obligatory typesetting point:  The way paragraphs are marked is inherently
+part of the definition of the style.  They are intentionally not settable
+parameters of the standard styles.  Once you start changing them, you are
+designing your own style.  Feel free, but be aware that you (a) will be
+dealing with the *internals* of the style files; (b) are on your own as far
+as typographical quality.
+
+Warning aside, here's the definition of \@makefntext that appears in the
+three standard LaTeX styles (article, book, and report):
+
+        \long\def\@makefntext#1{\parindent 1em\noindent
+            \hbox to 1.8em{\hss$^{\@thefnmark}$}#1}
+
+If you simple change this to leave \parindent alone, and instead change
+\parskip, you should get the effect you want.  The best way to do this
+would be in a style file - just put exactly the editted text in your own
+"fnparskip.sty" file, or add it to the end of the parskip.sty file you have
+now.  For simple testing, you can also place this definition in your document
+preamble.  In that case, put \makeatletter before it and \makeatother after.
+

+Subject: Wanted: New members for UK TeX Users Group
+
+
+There are many good reasons for joining the UK TeX Users Group.
+Here are two good reasons for joining before the end of the year.
+
+The first is that you will receive the last of issue of Baskerville
+of 1994, which is devoted entirely to answering the 99 most
+frequently answered questions about TeX.
+
+The second is that out of gratitude for your promptness, you will
+save two pounds (out of twenty).  And of course you will get the 6
+issues of Baskerville scheduled for 1995.
+
+And there's another reason for joining now.  Early next year there
+will be an important meeting:
+
+        Portable Documents:  Acrobat, SGML and TeX
+        Bridewell Theatre, off Fleet Street, London
+        January 19th 1995, 10am to 5pm
+
+cosponsored by the BCS Electronic Publishing Special Group.  Members of
+UKTUG (and BCS-EPSG) pay only forty pounds (saving ten) if they book
+early.
+
+The moral of this message is to act now.  Contact me and I'll put
+the details and forms into the Royal Mail to you.  If you give me the
+name and address of someone who you think might be interested, I'll
+send them to that person also.
+
+If this reads a little like an advertisment, it is because it is an
+advertisment.  But then again, I am:

+\subsection PC and Mac disks
+
+    From January 1994 the UK TeX Users' Group is distributing an
+    emTeX kit for PCs, and an OzTeX kit for Macintosh. The cost
+    covers copying and postage costs, and the shareware fee for
+    OzTeX.  Each set costs \pounds30, and is available from
+    Peter Abbott, 1 Eymore Close, Selly Oak, Birmingham B29 4LB.
+    Cheques must be payable to `UKTUG'. Please note that this
+    service **is available to UKTUG members only.**
+
+    Each set comes with an installation guide, and (at least)
+    full TeX and Metafont, a previewer, a PostScript driver, and
+    CM fonts. Two update disks a year will be sent out
+    automatically, with the current version of LaTeXe, and other
+    goodies. A subscription service will be available for
+    subsequent years. In addition, subscribers can request up to
+    3 disks a year with any material from the CTAN archives, but
+    this will be supplied `as is', without instructions.
+
+    OzTeX and emTeX are also available on disk from TeX Users Group;
+    mail TUG for details.
