A series of seminars has been scheduled in eleven regions of North Carolina by the North Carolina Coalition for Renewable Energy Resources. The seminars will bring together individuals and organizations who are participating in the Department of Energy's "1980 Appropriate Technology Small Grants Program." The program was designed by the Department of Energy in response to increased interest by citizens in developing small scale energy related technologies that are"appropriate" to local needs and skills. About two million in grant monies is available in the southeast, and inventors, innovators, small businesses and local non-profit groups can apply through this program for grants of up to $50,000. A toll-free number has been made available to answer questions about the program: 1-800-662-7131. According to Jon Parker, technical assistance coordinator, the three-hour seminars are designed to meet three goals: 1. to bring together individuals in specific geographical areas with similar interests, 2. to offer assistance in filling out grant proposal applications, and to answer specific questions about the program, and 3. to suggest additional sources of funding for projects. The seminars are open to the public at no cost. Individuals who are interested in finding out more about the program are urged to call the Energy Division Hotline toll-free. l_l m From page 2. . asked me what was wrong with my food, the manager finally arrived. I explained my predicament. Boogie Beetle remained motionless during the course of my conversation with the manager which must have lasted thirty seconds. The manager simply offered to give me another plate of "Boogie Beetles." The words "I'm sorry" never spurted forth from his lips. He insisted that my now mute "friend" had evolved from the "soul food" greens instead of the pork. Who the hell cares whether he came out of my pork? The fact remains that there was a six-legged creature in my damn food and I did not appreciate him performing his multi-talented routine on my plate. It's not enough that only a week ago today I was accused of eating supper twice at Dodson. I swore on the Pillsbury Dough Boy that I did not eat twice, but I was charged with having eaten the meal anyway, and "justice for all." Well, it's getting late and we all have better things to do. Look, I just finished the show "Ghosts" and I had the "Clap"-V.D., in case you didn't understand that four-letter word, for six weeks. I have used up the entire penicillin supply at the infirmary. It's not enough that my sexual activity had had to almost come to a complete standstill, but now I can't even enjoy the "simple things in life" without worrying about intestinal worms. I guess I'll just go back to eating the ole Nacho Cheese Doritos for supper. Sincerely, John Phillip Strickland
