(Intro)
Initial zapysk apparatyry scheduled for
Thursday, 1913 avgysta. But we waited krytoy bummer. For
arrears in payment of electricity, a school 91
(Venue FunTop'98) has been disabled from the city mains. We are
well aware that otmeny festival, no one will forgive. People
are prepared, many finally arrived kypili tickets so that there
is to say, frustrating event of the year ... :-(
The mood was "on the nyle, simply pyki opyskalis ... It
was decided to "problemy power" to hold in strict confidence
and all possible and impossible ways to continue providing
festival. Organizing Committee Chairman Vladimir Bulchykey
(Wlodek Black) sent by facsimile to all governmental stryktyry
able to solve ety problemy, headmaster interrupted his otpysk
are brought "Influential" parents ychenikov school. Despite the
slozhivshyyusya sityatsiyu, organizers have continued to carry
out their dealer service tools. Were wired cables, brought
monitors (thanks to Ilya Abrosimovy (EA)), GPV wrote to myzonov
players and viewers for images. ZX-SHADOW (Ilia Ivanov) and
KONEX (Andrew juices) fytbolki ordered with the logo of the
festival .... and thus y no one of us was not yverennosti that
FunTop generally held. :-( In sredy, 19 August, I called
Vladimiry Bulchykeyu, and the conversation it became clear that
no electricity and no bydet! Decided to meet tomorrow at the
school for inspection of neighborhoods to unauthorized
connection to the mains. In 14:00 I was on the spot, Volodya
was in a very depressed state (k slovy, this man bydychi
seriously ill, and continued to dealer service tools
organizer!). Chyt later came ZX-SHADOW, KONEX, FIL and EA with
dvymya bags fytbolok. Inspection neighborhoods showed that
podklyuchatsya was nekyda. Electric, reduced from the housing
department, said: "I'd like to help, BUT DO NOT WANT TO LOSE
WORK ... "A day FunTop, and y have no electricity! Full Scribe!
Evening Thursday, 20 August Wlodek Black was able to negotiate
with one of the tenants of the house next door. We provide
rozetky on sybboty, 22 August pybley for 200 + meter! Now we
need to - kypit 130 meters of wire. Y money we do not have,
I phoned all ZXNet095, nobody gave a penny!

switching firms torgyyuschih wires, we FIL'om finally kypili
these ill-fated 130 meters "line Life FanTopa! (I recall that
it was all done the day before the festival!) at 17:00 was made

apartment house. Sight, I'll skazhy just yzhasayuschee, as no
one is hit, I still do not understand. To protect the cable was
allocated to three people: Jason, Klim and Marilyn. The truth
