SRI.COM:[ANONYMOUS.NETINFO]INTEREST-GROUPS.TXT                 [2/25/96]

Welcome to the "List of lists." This is a listing of special interest
group mailing lists available on the Internet.  It is descended from the
original list of lists started by Rich Zellich back when there was only
an Arpanet, and is probably the oldest of the various "list of lists"
available around the Internet.

This compilation is copyrighted 1994, 1995, 1996 by Vivian Neou
([e-mail]). You are welcome to copy it to look at it online,
but it may not be reproduced in any other form without written
permission from me.  This file is available via anonymous FTP on sri.com
in the NETINFO directory in the file INTEREST-GROUPS.TXT.  It may also
be obtained through e-mail by sending a message to [e-mail]
with "send interest-groups" in the body of the message.

Official distribution location:
    sri.com:[anonymous.netinfo]interest-groups.txt

If you are putting up a copy of this list in a public place, please let
me know so that I can let you know when new versions come out. If you
see an old version of this list in a public repository on the net,
please let me (or the owner of the repository) know.

I don't produce a list of incremental changes to this list - you have to
get the whole list.  If you want to receive notices of new lists as they
are created, check out the "NEW-LIST" list.  I don't have time to
respond to requests for searches for lists on specific topics - you'll
have to pull the list and search it yourself (which you've probably
already done if you're reading this).  Not all LISTSERV lists are
included in this list. If you are looking for a summary of LISTSERV
lists, send a message to [e-mail] with "list global" in the
message body.

If you find errors in the entries in this list, please let me know
(especially if you find a listing for a defunct list).
To submit updates for the description of an existing mailing-lists or to
add a new listing, please fill out the form at

If you con't have web access, send a message to [e-mail].
Listings should include the following information:

        List Address:
        Subscription Address:
        List Management: (Majordomo, Listserv, Manual, etc)
        Owner:
        Description:
        Archive location and availability:
        How to join:
        List Traffic: (eg: around 3 messages/day)

List owners: If you are sending in information about a list that has
been around for awhile, please include information about the amount of
traffic that the list gets. If you are starting a list, please send this
information in (if you think of it) after the list has been around for a
couple months.

*** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT ***
*
* For administrative requests about a list (like getting added or deleted,
* asking about archive files, etc.) you write to the address listed under
* "Subscription Address" *NOT* the "List Address".  This gets you to the
* list owner or an automated list processor, rather than to the membership
* of the entire mailing list. If you goof and send an administrative
* message to the entire mailing list you will probably get blasted by
* irate list members. Save everyone grief by using the subscription
* address for adminitrative requests!
*
*** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT *** IMPORTANT ***

If the subscription address is a LISTSERV, send a message with
"subscribe listname" in the BODY of the message to the subscription
address.  Some List Addresses do not look like a regular Internet e-mail
address.  In general, these are LISTSERV lists. To send a message to the
list, look at the Subscription Address, and use that hostname along with
the list name to send a message to the list. For example, to send a
message to a list with a List Address called MYLIST with a Subscription
Address of [e-mail], send your message to
[e-mail]. Unix-based listservers usually require you to
include your name in the subscription request, so the command in your
request should be of the form "subscribe listname firstname lastname".
Most automated list servers will send back an explanation of the correct
command structure if you happen to get it wrong in your request.

If the subscription address is MAILBASE, send a message with "join
listname FirstName LastName" in the body of the message to the
subscription address.

How lists get on this list
--------------------------
There are a number of ways that lists get added to this list: I watch
the announcements on NEW-LIST, list owners (or interested members) send
me information, and I spend time (when I have it) looking around the net
for interesting lists. I do this so that the book that is based on this
list and eWorld will have up-to-date information, and I make this list
freely available on the Internet because I'm a nice person :). Just in
case you are wondering why you should buy the book if you can get the
online list at no cost I'll tell you: the book is fully indexed, and
descriptions are listed by subject rather than by listname; it comes
with a complete description of list management software (vs the two
paragraphs I've included in this file); it comes with software that will
automatically subscribe and unsubscribe you from lists; and most
importantly :) royalties from the book pay for the time that I spend
updating this file.

The book is "Internet Mailing Lists Navigator" by Vivian Neou, and its
ISBN number is 0-13-193988-2.  It is available in many bookstores, and
may be ordered directly from Prentice Hall by calling 1-800-643-5506.

   "alt.arts.ballet" directly (until these people are able to obtain more

   gateway(s) from/to this List.  However, anyone who very strongly prefers
   to post to (and to receive posts from) "alt.arts.ballet" via this list
   will be accomodated.

   Blister stands for Book LISTs with ER tacked on for mnemonic purposes.
   This  list is a place to send lists of books, not to discuss books. The
   idea behind this list is that you get a list of every book you've read,
   categorize the books into groups that you like and dislike, post the list.
   Feel free to make up categories. The point is that from time to time you'll
   see a list from someone who seems to have similar tastes to yours, and
   hopefully there will be a whole slew of books that person loved that you
   haven't read. Bear in mind that very few people have taste as good as you do.
   Most of the lists will be from people whose taste is inferior to yours. Their
   lists are potentially very, very long. Just delete those letters. Don't bother
   trying to reeducate cretins. They don't know good literature when they see it
   and can't be taught.

  Description:
   C14-L is a list for researchers and others involved in radiocarbon
   and other radioisotopes used in dating, and in scientific dating
   issues in general.  Disciplines for which it should be of particular
   interest would include anthropology, archaeology, climate and
   environmental studies, dendrochronology, earth sciences,
   oceanography, and various branches of chemistry and physics.

   The list is unmoderated and subscription is open.  However, it is
   intended primarily for technical communication and is not an
   appropriate forum for uninformed debate over the premises or
   theological implications of dating methods.
   Log files are available.

   This is a discussion group for California library media teachers.
   Conversation on this list focuses on the topics of distinct interest to
   the California school library media community, including legislation
   affecting school library media centers, regional and statewide
   networking and resource-sharing, school library education and training
   programs, California Online Resources for Education (CORE), the
   California Technology Project and other services, organizations,
   resources or events that affect California school libraries and library
   media teachers.

   This discussion is open to all school library media teachers in
   California and people involved with the school library media field.
   It is not for general librarians or educators.  But, the discussion
   can be used by library media people for many different things- to ask
   for input, share ideas and information, link programs that are
   geographically remote, make contacts, etc.

   This is a list for practitioners helping practitioners, sharing ideas,
   solving problems, telling each other about new publications and
   up-coming conferences, asking for assistance or information, and
   linking schools through their library media centers in California.

   pertaining to college campuses' personal, educational, and physical
   environments.  Possible subjects include, but are not limited to:
   campus race relations, sexual harassment, exterior lighting, fire
   regulations, handicap access.  It is hoped that subscribers
   will be able to specify how these issues are 'handled' at their campus.  For
   example, is there an ombudsman position?  How do campus committees with
   overlapping responsibilities communicate with each other?  What are the
   grievance procedures?  Is there a 'hate speech' policy?  Are athletes
   treated differently from the rest of the student body?

   should encourage more effective research and better appreciation of
   Canada's literature.

   Participants are invited to post questions, comments, book reviews,

  Description:
   The singular purpose of the childrens-voice list is the publishing of
   children's writing from Junior Kindergarten to Grade Eight.  Any
   classroom teacher may publish a child's writing on the list at
   their discretion to be shared with other subscribers.  When a writer
   places their own personal experience within the elements of their
   story, we hear the voice of the author.

   Helping a child to bring their personal experience to their writing
   is a prime objective of the writing process.  It is always easy to
   publish a child's writing when the voice is strong.  It is the caring
   and sensitive teacher who publishes a child's work, when for the
   first time, the child incorporates an aspect of their own experience
   into their work.  What should be published must, therefore, depend on
   the objectives of the classroom teacher.  In this way, the classroom
   teacher is always the best judge of what should be published.

   In the writing process, publishing is more than the act of placing
   words between two covers.  It is the affirmation of a child through
   listening to what the child has to say in their writing.  The
   classroom teacher is, therefore, encouraged to bring back the writing
   of other children published in the journal to be read by the children
   in their classrooms.  The broader community with its multiplicity of
   cultures and values frames the personal experience of a child.
   Languages other than English and French are encouraged.

   CHPOEM-L is an electronic mailing list devoted to sharing and
   discussing Chinese poems.
   For detailed conventions used for the list and technical info
   of Chinese computing, please FTP the CHPOEM-L Information File
   from ahkcus.org -192.55.187.25- in the directory ./gb/poem.
   Chinese files sent to the list should be uuencoded.  The uuencode
   command is included on most Unix-based systems; type "man uuencode"
   for instructions on its use, or ask your system administrator.  PC
   versions of uuencode and uudecode are available via anonymous ftp
   from ahkcus.org [192.55.187.25] as uuduue20.zip in the src/pc
   directory.  (Ask your system administrator for help using FTP.)  For
   information about uuencode and the Mac, see the Mac help file
   mentioned below.
   To read a file written in Chinese, you will need a program that can
   interpret the Chinese code used in that file.  Different programs are
   available for different hardware platforms.
   PC users can get information about GuoBiao editors by sending email
   to [e-mail] with the message GET PC HELP.  HKU Big5 files
   can be viewed with shownews.exe or readnews.exe, available via
   anonymous ftp at ahkcus.org [192.55.187.25] in the src/pc/hku
   directory.  (You will also need the chinese.16 font file from the
   same directory.)  ET Big5 files must be read with the ETen operating
   system, which is commercial software selling for about US$80.
   However there is a utility, et2hku, to convert ET Big5 files to HKU
   Big5 files, which can then be read with shownews.
   Mac users can get information about both GuoBiao and Big5 software by
   sending email to [e-mail] with the message GET MAC HELP.

   X Windows users can use either cxterm or xhzview for both GuoBiao
   or Big5 files.  For information about cxterm, send email to
   [e-mail] with the message GET CXTERM HELP.  For infor-
   mation about xhzview, send email to [e-mail] with the
   message GET XHZVIEW HELP.

   To convert between GuoBiao and Big5 (et or hku) files, use hc ("Hanzi
   Converter"), available via anonymous ftp from ahkcus.org [192.55.187.25]
   in the src/unix directory.  (There is another conversion utility
   available called b2g, but it seems to miss a large number of
   characters.)  Since Big5 covers about 5,000 more characters than
   GuoBiao, it's likely there will be a few missing characters in Big5
   to GuoBiao conversions.

   To convert between ET Big5 and HKU Big5, use et2hku, available via
   anonymous ftp from cs.purdue.edu [128.10.2.1] in the pub/ygz/utils
   directory.

  Description:
   CompuMed is a moderated discussion group dealing with high
   performance computing and its implementation in the medical
   profession.  It includes archives of documents dealing with various
   supercomputer applications and work station standards for developing
   databases, medical curricula for allied health students, medical
   schools and practising physicians, and the use of virtual reality in
   developing tools for training medical students and presenting
   materials for disability networks like EASI.  Resource files indexing
   material currently available in databases for consultative use in the
   medical profession (this material would be suitable for use in the
   family practitioner's office as well as in the emergency wards of
   large urban hospitals) are also available.  One of the major concerns
   has been the delivery of cost-effective health care on a global
   basis. At present, participants are initiating the development of
   software and online help files for long term medical care in cases of
   (TBI) traumatic brain injury. These files are particularly oriented
   toward helping survivors of TBI and their families cope with the
   daily need for consultation which might not be available or might
   surpass the economic resources of the family.

   The list should be  of interest to administrators in
   hospitals and universities developers, government officials in the
   sciences and social services, students in medical faculties and
   software and hardware suppliers to government, hospital centres and
   universities.

   can be within the organization or directed to other users on the different
   networks (BitNet, Internet, etc.).  This list strives to provide a
   forum for developers of such systems.  Topics to be discussed are how to
   carry out such an effort, experiences in the implementation,
   recommended policies, hardware issue s, etc.  It is aimed primarily

   The CYSTIC-L discussion group focuses on the holistic impact of
   cystic fibrosis.  While much of the list will be devoted to discussions
   of new medical advances as well as possible therapeutic and nutritional
   treatments, the list should also have a less rigorous side to it.
   It is also a forum for CF patients to vent about frustrating
   encounters with the medical-industrial complex, to discuss ways of
   countering bias that might exist in job or school-related activities,
   and just to talk in general about the myriad of factors that make our
   lives quite different from those with functional chloride channels.

  Description:
   CytoNet serves as an information and communications service for
   investigators who research the cytoskeleton, plasma-membrane, cell wall
   structural and functional continuum.  It provides a means of dialog
   among plant scientists whose interdisciplinary efforts involve:
   structural dynamics of the cytoskeleton, molecular control of the
   expression of specific actins and tubulins, molecules which attach the
   cytoskeleton to the plasma membrane, the interactions of the
   cytoskeleton and membrane transport, transmembrane molecules that link
   the cytoskeleton to the cell wall, matrix proteins and polysaccharides
   of the cell wall that participate in membrane adhesion, signal
   transduction mechanisms associated with cytoskeleton-membrane,
   interactions, the cytoskeleton-membrane interaction and protein and
   polysaccharide trafficking.

   This group provides a forum for discussion of latest developments in
   diverse disciplines that impinge on our specific mission; an information
   resource for new participants; a bulletin board for announcements of new
   positions, meetings, and retreats; an avenue for initiating
   collaboration among participants; up to date advancements in
   interdisciplinary technologies; announcement of novel reagents and other
   materials available for collaborative use; repository for a monthly
   newsletter which will feature a specific aspect of our mission and the
   researchers involved. The newsgroup that corresponds to this list is
   bionet.cellbiol.cytonet.

   A steering committee was formed to coordinate the activities of the core
   group.  A directory of participating scientists is maintained and can be
   obtained by email requests to [e-mail].  The newsgroup
   is expected to run unmoderated, but inquiries concerning other functions
   of CytoNet may be addressed to the list owner.

   range of historical sciences, including: evolutionary biology,
   archeology, historical linguistics, cosmology, textual transmission,
   paleontology, historical anthropology, historical geology, systematics,
   and historical geography.

   Darwin-L welcomes discussion of any of these fields with special
   reference to history, theory, and interdisciplinary comparison.
   Appropriate topics might include the development of historical
   linguistics in the 18th and 19th centuries; stratigraphic approaches to
   historical reconstruction in geology and other fields; the genealogical
   trees produced by systematic biologists, historical linguists, and
   students of textual transmission; the comparative movements of the 19th
   century (comparative philology, comparative anatomy, comparative
   ethnography); and the historical clocks used in radiometric dating,
   molecular systematics, and historical linguistics.  Darwin-L also
   welcomes queries, notices, course outlines, and bibliographies.

   the total freedom and lawlessness that exists. In fact, the
   Internet is the only place in the world where one can be free of
   the rules and constraints of government.

   But how long will our freedom last? How long will it be until the
   government decides to show its ugly head in cyberspace?  This mailing
   list will open to the discussion of the following issues, and all
   related issues: Usenet censorship (e.g. alt.sex.*), monitoring of the
   Usenet by the government, monitoring of private e-mail by the police for
   suspicious or illegal activity, whether minors should be allowed
   Internet access, the responsibilities involved in participating in the
   Usenet/Internet culture, and the newly propsed "Clipper" chip.

   The discussion is open to all; i.e. whether you are for or against any
   of those six issues, or anything related, your views are more than
   welcome.  Also, the list may have posts of news (current events) from
   T.V., newspapers, or magazines related to this topic that catches the
   eye of anyone who subscribes.  This group will be
   unmoderated and uncensored.

   You can finger the listname for additional information.

   lovers of the mystery genre. It was concocted by a group
   of women librarians at a July 1991 Washington, D.C. meeting
   of the Association of Research Libraries and named in honor
   of one of the great women mystery writers of the century. Agatha
   Christie and Josephine Tey were strong contenders, but
   Dorothy L. Sayers had a LISTSERV-blessed middle initial.

   Suitable subjects for posting are: announcements of forthcoming books and previews;
   reviews, criticisms, comments, and appreciations of
   mysteries (books, plays, films); great mystery book shops; and
   awards - it can take a long time to learn which are the

   and Natural Resources Working Group of the Latin American Studies
   Association;  its editors are David Barkin and Timmons Roberts.
   David Barkin is Professor of Economics at the Universidad Autonoma
   Metropolitana Xochimilco, Mexico, and Senior Fellow at the Lincoln

   Note also that archives are available on the listserver
   so that you can review what happened before you arrived.  These
   archives also include papers and data sets which are accessable to
   anyone with Gopher capabilities.  To access the ELAN archives, use
   your Gopher to get to Colorado/CSF/and then move into the environment
   front-line directory.  These archives are open to both ELAN
   subscribers and all others.  Still, we encourage ELAN archive users

   postings and make it possible for several more focused discussions to
   go on at the same time.

   (an amateur store-and-forward network), FIRENET was formed as an
   "echo", the equivalent of a mailing list or newsgroup. Later
   misc.emerg-service on USENET was formed.  After a
   while, FIRENET was gated to the misc.emerg-services USENET newsgroup.

    In the late 1980's, CEMS-L (Collegiate Emergency Services List) was
   formed and run out of SUNY Binghamton by Harpur's Ferry VAS.
   In 1991, it was moved to Marist College in Poughkeepsie and run by
   Marist EMS. This list was changed from CEMS-L to EMERG-L, November 1991,

   Production electric vehicles are currently available.  Internal
   combustion engine vehicles can be converted to electric.  There exist

   issues, discussions/critiques/group readings of specific literary works,

   the playground (the domes with all the triangles, remember?).  Another
   example of geodesic architecture is the giant white sphere at Disney
   World's "Epcot Center".  Of course, Bucky did a lot more than just invent
   the Geodesic Dome! He invented other means of housing people cheaply,
   efficiently, comfortably, and basically anywhere in the world! (yes, even
   on the oceans!) So if you're interested in discussing Bucky, learning more
   about him, or finding out about 8500 ft. high pyramidal cities that float

   GLB-NEWS exists as a read-only repository of information for gay,

   It is designed to present informational articles from a variety of
   source mailing lists in a single forum for quick and compact
   delivery.

   As they are received by the Editor-at-large, articles which would
   classify as information will be posted to this list. Headers will
   be stripped and (as much as is possible) articles will be edited to
   remove personal references. This will be done in order to preserve
   the anonymity and safety of the authors. Only at the explicit
   request of an original author will this guideline be relaxed. An
   Author may request their name to remain on articles by sending mail
   to the Editor-at-large. All articles posted to GBL-NEWS will have a
   Reply-To: header tag which will point to their list of origin. If
   you are unable to post a reply to the origin list, you will have to
   contact that list's moderator and request that special action be
   taken.

   Subscriptions will only be activated by the Editor-at-large.  This is
   designed to shelter the list from unwanted "bashers" who might be
   able to use the list contents to blackmail or coerce members.  By
   default, all subscriptions will have the CONCEAL=TRUE attribute set.

  Description:
   This list is intended for the discussion of any and
   all topics related to the form of music known as "grunge rock"
   (not just Seattle-based or Sub Pop bands).  It is an open,
   unmoderated list with a frequently high level of traffic.

   As a general guideline, the following talk is encouraged:
   recording/concert reviews and recommendations; band tour dates;
   local scene reviews and news; record store and mail-order company
   recommendations; interviews and articles, original or otherwise;
   quotes, band gossip, and insider information; and anything else one
   would typically find in a music magazine.

   People who find "adult language and references" offensive will
   not want to join this list.  It is also a good idea to read the
   grunge list with an extra dose of patience, perverse humor, and
   sarcasm.

   The GS/DSP Discussion List serves as an unmoderated forum for
   discussion of GS/DSP co-processor board for the Apple II family of
   computers currently being developed by Pete Snowberg.  This list is
   for the discemination of information about the GS/DSP and the
   discussion of possible applications for the GS/DSP.

   Messages sent to this list are not reviewed by the list owner and are
   automatically forwarded to everyone on the list.  If you want to send
   private messages to each other or to Pete this is not the way to do
   it.  If you would like to send a private message to Pete Snowberg you
   can reach him at: "[e-mail]".

   One more note on this mailing list.  This list is being run out of
   the Open Computing Facility at UC Berkeley.  This is a cluster of 18
   Apollo Domain DN3500 workstations run by a completely student staff.
   This cluster is not the most stable one in the world but mail here
   generally is.  (Note: I said GENERALLY.) From time to time this
   cluster might disappear off of the net and your submission might not
   make it through.  But these occurrences should be even less frequent
   now with the addition of another network gateway.  So if your
   submission to the list bounces, try again later and the list should be
   back up.

   From time to time there will be informational postings from Pete or
   other developers about their products related to the GS/DSP, these
   messages will be archived and if you want send a message to the list
   coordinator and he will forward to you the requested file.

   There will be a listing of the available files.  Two files which might be
   of interest include the GS/DSP Preliminary Press Info that was posted to
   comp.sys.apple2, this one and a long question and answer post by Pete
   Snowberg about the DSP board.

   H-Urban (URBAN HISTORY) was established up at the

   for scholars of urban history.  The UIC history department has a
   long-standing interest in the history of Chicago and other U.S.
   cities, ethnicity and immigration, and of European and Russian urban
   development.

   The primary purpose of H-Urban is to enable urban historians to
   easily communicate current research and research interests;  to
   discuss new approaches, methods and tools of analysis;  to share
   reviews of useful resources including monographs, journals, articles,
   and primary source materials such as papers, maps, records, and
   databases;  and to announce calls for papers, conferences, museum and
   society shows, exhibitions, job opportunities, grants and
   fellowships.

   H-Urban is also a forum for exploring the approaches, methods and
   tools used in teaching history to graduate and undergraduate
   students.  As described below, UIC is establishing an electronic
   archive easily accessible to historians.  Syllabi, reading lists, and
   examinations would all be valuable additions to the archive.
   Discussion of cities throughout human history, and in all geographic
   areas is welcome.

   Documents of interest to urban historians -- bibliographies, book and
   article reviews, announcements, teaching materials, and descriptions
   of tools, techniques, and computer software and hardware -- will be
   made available from the H-Urban fileserver.  In addition, an archive
   of all discussion on H-Urban will be available from the fileserver.

   To obtain a list of available documents, send a note to the
   subscription address requesting an index: "Index H-Urban".

   Contributions to the archive are welcome, and should be sent to

   definitely not limited to recumbent bicycles, but most of the current

   You can access the mailing list archives and lots of other files
   including the index to the IHPVA's Human Power journal, articles, a
   Source Guide, and JPEG images of vehicles, using either gopher or a
   WWW client such as Mosaic.

   The address of the server for access via gopher is zippy.sonoma.edu
   on port 70. Connect via a gopher client and then go into the HPV
   directory. (Currently the 8th menu item.)  If you can't see this item
   in your menu, you are using an old client; ask your administrator to
   install a more recent one.

   The URL (uniform resource locator) for accessing the server via WWW is:
       http://zippy.sonoma.edu:70/1/HPV

   You get exactly the same material (it's the same server) but there are a
   few extra items if you use a WWW client - there are some links to other
   systems that are accessible only via WWW.  There are currently no index
   files for FTP access, but all the same data files are accessible by
   anonymous FTP. If you have a gopher or WWW client, you're better off
   usining it.  FTP to zippy.sonoma.edu, use the login name 'anonymous' and
   'cd' to the HPV directory tree.

   Internet Mall and a special list of just those shops that are new
   since the last issue.

   The INET-MARKETING list is devoted to the discussion of marketing
   goods and services in an appropriate way on the Internet.
   To join, send a mail message to the subscription address containing
   "SUBSCRIBE INET-MARKETING Your Name of Your Organization"
   (please put your name, such as Glenn Fleishman of Point of Presence
   Co.  instead of Your Name...;  do not put your e-mail address: the
   list processor automatically determines that from your reply address.
   If that is not your desired mail address, you can change it later.)

   The topics of this list are limitless, but should be focused around:
   how to reach consumers/end-users/purchasers; how to advertise and market appropriately;
   forums for marketing; CommerceNet's attempts to unify the business of
   doing business on the Net; commercial Internet "publishers" and "shopping malls";
   ordering and credit card purchasing.

   This list is moderated.  The list owner recommends that after you
   subscribe, you send the command "SET INET-MARKETING MAIL DIGEST"
   to the subscription address.  This option will send you one
   digest of posts per day or so (sometimes more often if there are many
   posts) rather than each post as an individual piece of mail.

  Description:
   This discussion list focuses on the Xerox/Envos Lisp environment and the
   associated protocols.  Its purpose is to stimulate communication and
   sharing between computer science research groups that use or are interested
   in the environment.  The list may be used for messages such as
   announcements of available lispusers packages or for queries such as "Does
   anybody know of a PUP file server implementation for the Sinclair ZX-80?"
   or to warn others of Interlisp-D and Medley bugs and/or suggest workarounds
   or to solicit help or discussion.

   Xerox PARC, SIS, and Envos people are included in the distribution to
   facilitate communication about new developments, bugs, performance issues,
   etc..  Additionally, Info-1100 is automatically forwarded to
   [e-mail], where bugs are noted and acted upon if
   appropriate.  Xerox AIS and Envos employees will not respond in Info-1100
   unless the reply is of general interest or silence would mislead the
   readership.  This mailing list is also distributed as the usenet newsgroup
   comp.sys.xerox.

   A historical note describing the name:  The Lisp environment was originally
   implemented on Xerox' 1100-series workstations, and the user base is
   primarily still on 1108's, 1109's, and 1186's.

   Mailing list for reporting bugs/problems with the Andrew distribution.
   (See Info-Andrew entry for more detailed description on what "Andrew" is).
   Official responses to queries and bug reports will be posted to this
   mailing list.  Topics include: problems discovered in building the distribution;
   problems discovered in running parts of the distribution; and
   questions about difficulties encountered (even if you're not sure
   they're bugs).

   When sending a message to this list, you should feel free to include any
   multi-media images (rasters, animations, etc.), that might help to clarify
   a bug report.  Such images will automatically be stripped out and replaced
   by "A picture appeared here" before being redistributed to the plain-text
   recipients.

   The list will be moderated, so that all bugs can be tracked and referenced
   with patch files.   Posts will go out to the subscribers
   about once a week, summarizing those reports which have been fixed and
   those still being looked into.

   NOTE: All subscription requests will also be added to the Info-Andrew distribution
   list unless specifically requested not to.

  Description:
   An informal mailing list intended for general discussion by recipients of
   the Andrew distribution (and implementors of Andrew).  Andrew, a joint
   project of Carnegie Mellon University and IBM, is a prototype computing
   environment for academic and research use under the UNIX operating system.

   There are four main parts to Andrew: the Andrew File System (AFS), a
   large-scale distributed central file system; the Andrew Toolkit (ATK), a
   toolkit for building complex graphical user interface programs in a
   window-manager independent way (currently runs on X11 and the old Andrew
   window manager); the Andrew Message System (AMS), a multi-media mail and
   bulletin board system compatible with non-multi-media systems; and the
   Andrew application programs, a suite of programs that use the ATK to
   provide various useful features.

   Topics can include (but are not limited to): hints about using/building Andrew;
   discussions about desired features, changes, etc.; comments about the
   Andrew distribution (e.g., "it stinks", "it's great"); questions about
   the availability/existence of other parts of Andrew.

   The mailing list is available in both Andrew multi-media format (if you
   have the AMS up and running) and plain-text format.  By default you will be
   sent plain-text versions of the posts, but you can request a change in
   which version you receive by sending mail to the subscription address.  When
   sending a message to this list, you should feel free to include any
   multi-media images (rasters, animations, etc.) which might help to express
   you question, comment, etc.  Such images will automatically be stripped out
   and replaced by "A picture appeared here" before being redistributed to the
   plain-text recipients.

   NOTE: All subscription requests will also be added to the
   Info-Andrew-Bugs distribution list unless specifically requested not to.

   right this minute.  Technologies can change so rapidly that simply
   forecasting for needs within any organization one or two years in advance
   can be extremely difficult, frequently we are forced to provide foundations
   that effectively lock us into a technology for longer periods of time. It

   This is a list for users of the Macintosh programming language Prograph.
   Prograph, for those who have not seen it before, is an icon-based
   object-oriented programming language, published by TGS Systems, Halifax,
   Nova Scotia. Prograph includes an application "shell", which makes it
   easy to quickly generate prototypes of your application.  Unlike other
   application generators, such as Serius Developer or AppMaker, Prograph
   is a complete and self-contained programming language, with full access
   to the Mac Toolbox (including System 7 calls).  The versatile
   Interpreter lets you quickly test and debug your code, actually allowing
   you to add new code while your application is running!  Once you have
   your application debugged, the Compiler lets you turn it into a
   standalone, double-clickable Mac application, which you are free to
   distribute as you see fit (no licensing fees are required).

   This list does not have an automated subscription process, so no special
   syntax is required.  Just say you want to subscribe.

   does "graphicacy" matter in today's world;  what is the relationship
   between academic or scientific graphics, and graphics in the popular

   there graphic variables or elements that are basic to all graphics,
   and can these be used in animation?

   IOUDAIOS (Greek for "Jew") is an electronic seminar devoted to the
   exploration of first-century Judaism;  its special interest is in the
   writings of Philo of Alexandria and Flavius Josephus.  The list began
   as an informal discussion of two papers by Robert A. Kraft
   (Pennsylvania) but quickly blossomed into an international forum, with
   participants in North America, Europe, Australia, and The Middle East.

   The Philonic and Josephan corpora are extensive enough that they
   invite all sorts of analysis -- from literary, historical, and
   philosophical perspectives, to name a few.  There is also considerable
   interest among participants, in the social realities that lie behind
   these texts. The discussion assumes a significant background in first-century Judaism
   and also the ability to read Greek.

  Description:
   The Interpersonal Computing and Technology List (IPCT-L) was created
   by the Center for Teaching and Technology (CTT) at the Academic
   Computer Center, Georgetown University.  A special effort will be
   made to promote an international forum for pedagogical issues
   important to higher education involving teaching with technology, and
   especially with connectivity and networking.

   This is a forum for the discussion of computing and other
   technology that can be used to promote learning.  Topics for
   discussion may involve teaching and training;  collaboration;
   partnerships among learners, faculty or teachers, and other
   interested persons in the educational community;  and research that
   reflect these interests.  The decade of the 1980s was characterized
   by the personal computer, and development of individual productivity.
   The focus of the IPCT-L, as we move toward the 21st century,
   is that interpersonal computing and technology will tie persons
   together throughout the world -- to share ideas and solve problems.

   Besides creating a forum for the topics of interest noted above,
   another interest of the CTT is to publish a scholarly, refereed
   international journal.  To that end, the IPCT-L will develop a
   subscription list and act as a resource to develop the community
   necessary to review articles and recommend editorial policies as
   these publishing goals move forward.

   The JUDGES-L list distributes messages to a panel of judges that
   cancel multiple posts to Network News immediately.  The list is used
   to help judges organize themselves, finalize policy, and set
   procedures to enforce rules.  It is primarily directed to those who
   issue cancels.  Secondarily, to those who survey cancels issued, in
   order to ensure that the cancel facility is not being abused.
   General policy discussion is conducted in the UseNet newsgroup
   news.admin.policy.  A periodic post in that newsgroup gives the
   current policy consensus.

   In is not the intention of the judges to regulate the content of
   articles posted.  The protection of the Network News system from
   overload by posts to multiple groups is the focus of the activity.
   Widespread posting of off topic material and overloads of individual
   newsgroups is a secondary focus of discussion.

   Mechanisms for the control of automatic posting software or automatic

   mechanisms to facilitate the cancellation of abusive posts is also
   within the scope of this distribution list.

  Description:
   The primary purpose of the LOGIC-L list is to provide a forum for the
   exchange of views, experiences, techniques, and professional
   information pertaining to the teaching and study of elementary
   logic. For the purposes of this list, 'elementary logic' means the
   areas of logic customarily taught up through the undergraduate level,
   and including the concerns of both deductive and inductive logic,
   with special emphasis upon the apparatus of first-order predicate
   calculus.

   The intent of the list is to have a strong pedagogical emphasis,
   though this is not to be regarded as exclusive of discussions of a
   theoretical character.

   Topics covered on this list include: developing trends in the
   teaching of logic; comparison of the levels at which elementary logic
   is taught symbolic logic, metatheory, etc.); new developments in the
   teaching of elementary logic (e.g., modallogic, relevance logic,
   speech act theory, etc.); issues in the philosophy of logic,
   epistemology, cognitive science,linguistics, computer science,
   psychology etc. as they bear upon the teaching of logic; logic
   software available as teaching and learning aids; consideration of
   new (and old) textbooks and their merits; successful (and
   unsuccessful) practices in the teaching of logic (e.g., the use of
   puzzles, humor, paradoxes,), differing testing methods, etc.; the
   relations of logic to ordinary language, and the strengths and
   limitations of formalization; the interrelations between logical and
   rhetorical modes of communication; and the history of the teaching of
   logic, and where it seems to be going as we move into the 21st
   Century.

   The list is unmoderated and open to anyone, from any discipline, with
   a serious academic interest in this area of study.  Questions, shared
   research and insight, relevant conference announcements/calls for
   papers, etc.  are welcome and encouraged.

   When you subscribe you automatically receive explanatory information
   both about the group and about the "listserv" mechanisms you will use
   to communicate with the other members of the group.

  Description:
   Lyme Disease is now the fastest growing infectious disease in the
   United States.  In 10 short years, this little known bacterial
   infection has claimed half a million victims and the number of new
   patients continues to spiral upward with no relief in sight.  It is
   estimated that in 1991, 100,000 Americans contracted this dangerous
   disease.  If left untreated, LD can cause permanent nerve,
   musculoskeletal and cardiac damage.

   Unfortunately, many in the medical and political arenas have not
   given this epidemic much thought.  Self appointed experts in the
   academic community have declared that LD can always be cured with
   short courses of simple antibiotics.  However, as the number of cases
   rise, doctors on the front lines are discovering that LD is more
   serious that previously suspected, requiring longer treatment
   therapies and more complex combinations of medicines.  The battle
   lines have been drawn.

   And the battles continue at LD conferences, and in the various State
   legislatures where insurance companies, terrified at the high cost of
   LD, are attempting to short change patients.  Estimates show that the
   average cost of treatment for chronic LD patients ranges from $60,000
   to $100,000 per patient.

   This list provides an avenue to keep up with the latest developments,
   including new treatment protocols, research news and political
   events.  LymeNet, in association with the Lyme Disease Network of New
   Jersey, Inc., provides a periodic newsletter with the latest
   information.

   and "mm" is the month.  To retrieve all archives, send a mail message
   containing the command SEND MACRO32 to [e-mail]. To
   retrieve the archive for a particular month, specify the proper file
   name in the SEND command.  For example, to retrieve the archives for May
   1991 (the first month of MACRO32), the command would be: "SEND
   MACRO32.1991-05".  They are also available via anonymous ftp from
   ftp.spc.edu in directory [.MACRO32.LISTS].

   Marxism is an electronic forum for discussion and experimentation rooted
   in both the work of Karl Marx and, more generally, the tradition(s) that
   work has inspired since.  Thus it has been conceived as a place to explore
   the field oftextual and political production generated by the work of
   Karl Marx (and Friedrich Engels).   This field encompasses a diversity of differing traditions and
   figures, from Lenin and Luxemburg to Williams and West; the complete A to Z
   from Althusser to Zizek, one might say.
   The list is a forum for open engagement and enquiry with all
   aspects of these Marxist traditions--and we hope that this will be an
   interdisciplinary engagement, bringing together historians, economists,
   sociologists, artists, literary critics, philosophers and so on.
    The list gets between 10-15 messages /day.

   The NATLIT-L (Natural Literacy) list is founded for the purpose of
   discussing books and other resource materials (tapes, software, and

   activities.  This can include good books on environmental education,
   environmental law, resource management, meteorology, plant and animal
   identification, and mountaineering, bicycling or backpacking

   Natural Literacy is based on the premise that knowledge about the
   earth will help to save and preserve her.  And learning is fun too!
   If you agree then this mailing list is for you.  Appropriate
   contributions will include: recommendations for good reading;
   recommendations for people requesting information; book reviews--
   professionally or semi-professionally written; announcements of new
   book releases; and discussion of ideas for potential authors of new books.

   This list is dedicated to experimenting with and exploring the way we

   they be implemented?

   For instance: "How is technology changing the way we view
   education?"; "What effects will cooperative/collaborative strategies
   have on teaching and learning?"; "Does the so-called "information
   age" change the way we view our responsibilities as educators?";
   "Artificial intelligence research is changing our view of how we know
   things.  How does this affect education?"; "How can we reduce
   dependency in education and foster independent learning?"

   There are many individuals working in these areas, each with a
   conviction that education will change.  This list attempts to bring
   together every teacher, student, researcher, librarian, multimedia
   expert and information specialist interested in educational change --
   Kindergarten through post-graduate.

   You are encouraged to: submit summaries of or commentary on published
   articles and books which explore the frontiers of teaching and
   learning; submit in-progress papers or abstracts of those papers for
   comment; share the results of your experiments with teaching and
   learning; ask thought-provoking questions about the future of

   NL-KR is open to discussion of any topic related to the natural language
   (both understanding and generation) and knowledge representation, both as
   subfields of AI.  The Moderator's interests are primarily in:
   knowledge representation, natural language understanding, discourse
   understanding, philosophy of language, plan recognition,
   computational linguistics.

   Contributions are also welcome on topics such as: cognitive
   psychology (as related to NL/KR), human perception (same),
   linguistics, machine translation, computer and information science
   (as may be used to implement various NL systems), logic programming
   (same).

   Contributions may be anything from tutorials to speculation. In particular,
   the following are sought: puzzles and unsolved problems; anecdotes,
   jokes, and poems; abstracts; reviews; lab descriptions; research
   overviews; work planned or in progress; half-baked ideas; conference
   announcements; conference reports; bibliographies; history of NL/KR;
   queries and requests; address changes (bindings).

   This list is in some sense a spin-off of the AIList, and as such, a certain
   amount of overlap is expected.  The primary concentration of this list
   should be NL and KR, that is, natural language (be it understanding,
   generation, recognition, parsing, semantics, pragmatics, etc.) and how we
   should represent knowledge (aquisition, access, completeness, etc. are all
   valid issues).  Topics deemed to be outside the general scope of this list
   will be forwarded to AIList (or other more appropriate list) or rejected.
   Readers are warned not to submit any information that is export-controlled

PEIRCE-L
  Subscription Address: [e-mail]
  Owner: Joseph Ransdell <[e-mail]>
  Description:
   This list is open to the discussion of all topics pertaining to the work of the American
   philosopher/logician/scientist Charles Sanders Peirce.
   Since Peirce is especially associated not only with topics in logic
   and the philosophy of science, but also with theory of representation
   and interpretation ("semiotic"), and with the conception of thought
   as essentially communicational and social, the list is highly
   interdisciplinary in membership and discussion content.  But the
   intention is to keep continuing focus on the philosophical basis of
   his thought as well as its special applications, and to encourage
   discussion which is philosophical in content and attitude.  The
   list was begun in August 1993.  The membership of PEIRCE-L, which
   already includes people from some two dozen countries and from a
   remarkable range of disciplines, is not limited to those with academic
   posts or connections, and its members have found no difficulty in
   sustaining discussion at a high level of rigor, a vigorous pace, and
   a geniality of attitude without need for recourse to heavy-handed
   moderation.  There is no standing agenda except the promotion of
   philosophical conversation, and it was founded in the belief that
   a common interest in Peirce's work would turn out to provide an
   unusually good pretext for people getting together on-line to do
   that.

   Observers as well as active participants are welcome: this is a
   public forum.  List-based discussion in the liberal arts is in some
   ways more akin to oral than to written discourse, and its rhythms and
   achievements are perhaps best compared with the kind of communication
   that occurs in public squares in those countries which have managed
   to maintain pre-modern traditions of informal public gathering.
   Yet there is a difference, too, in that all discussion is recorded,
   retrievable, and searchable by textstring with Boolean operators, and
   the responses posted in PEIRCE-L are frequently long enough and well-enough developed conceptually to make the advantage of written
   discourse readily apparent, too.  Facilities for a member-donated
   library of pre-prints, work-in-progress, and other secondary materials,
   and of primary material by Peirce himself in digitized form, are in
   preparation.  The list also serves as an information resource for
   professional activities.

   This list is sponsored by the Department of Philosophy at Texas Tech
   University, and by The Peirce Telecommunity Project/Electronic Peirce
   Consortium.

  Description:
   POLI-SCI is a spinoff from the HUMAN-NETS discussion list.  Shortly after
   the November 1980 election, HUMAN-NETS began to discuss the impact that
   electronic communications had on the election.  As this discussion
   continued, it lost its narrow focus on electronic communications and began
   to consider the election in general, how elections are won and lost, and
   the nature of the electoral college.  The growth of these discussions, and
   their spawning of related discussions, indicated that a separate discussion
   list was merited and POLI-SCI was installed.  Since then POLI-SCI has begun
   to consider other topics including the history of the Carter and Nixon
   presidencies, the Iranian hostage crisis, etc. (with a little less dignity,
   the list might be characterized as a permanent distributed political bull
   session).

POPULATION-BIOLOGY
  Subscription Address: [e-mail]
  Owner: Vincent Bauchau <[e-mail]>
  Description:
   Population Biology is a synthesis of population ecology and population
   genetics, pursuing a unified theory to explain the structure, functioning
   and evolution of populations of living beings.  Such populations are very
   complex systems, exhibiting a variety of phenomena that we stil do not
   master.  Just to quote a famous example, multiannual density cycles (e.g.
   in lemmings) have not received a satisfactory expalnation, despite of
   decades of debated studies and speculations.  Population Biology is a very
   active field, encompassing such diverse approaches as tenacious, harsh
   field work to track long term demographic and genetic fluctuations, or
   sophisticated conversations with a computer about strange attractors
   possibly causing chaos in the density fluctuations.

   Topics that can be discussed include: ecology, population genetics,
   systematics, evolution, morphometry, interspecific competition,
   sociobiology, mathematical modelling, population regulation, pest control,
   speciation, chromosomal evolution, social behaviour, statistical
   methodology in population study, population management of endangered
   species, applications of molecular biology techniques, etc., and, last but
   not least, your own topic.  There is no restriction on the species:
   viruses, protokaryotes, plants, animals (including man), mythic or extinct

  Description:
   The list name stands for Purdue Rhetoric, Professional Writing, and
   Language Discussion Group. It is a scholarly forum for the discussion of
   current issues or "topoi" in the fields of rhetoric and composition,
   professional writing, and language research.  While the list began as a
   list for Purdue only, it became so popular that it has been opened up
   for general subscriptions.

   Previous topics taken up by the group have included: the relationship
   between social construction and ethnographic research in composition;
   the disciplinary relationships between rhetoric, literary criticism,
   and linguistics; the debate between agonistic and rogerian approaches
   to composition; the impact of cultural studies on composition
   pedagogy and research; and the antagonism between post-structuralist
   and cognitivist approaches to historical, theoretical, and empirical
   research methods.

   Members are encouraged to submit works in progress, reviews of recent
   publications, reports or announcements of conferences,
   bibliographies, or questions for group discussion.

   Subscription to the list is by listowners.  Messages sent to the list
   are archived and may be retrieved by list members.  Also, a filelist
   containing help files, bibliographies, and papers of interest is
   available to list members.

   Q-Method is an unmoderated list for the discussion of all aspects of
   Q methodology as innovated and developed by the late William
   Stephenson (1902-1989).  Q methodology is a broad approach to the
   study of subjectivity, and includes issues of theory,
   conceptualization, measurement, and analysis.  Topics for discussion
   may therefore range from the Q-sort technique to Q factor analysis to
   broader concerns about the nature of subjectivity.  Q methodology has
   been applied in psychology, communication, political science,
   advertising, education, law, health and medicine, and many others
   fields.  Discussion may therefore be expected to be diverse with
   respect to illustration while unified with respect to methodological
   principles.  (Q-Method began March 1, 1992 and succeeds QTemp@KentVM,
   which was established as a temporary list on January 14, 1991.)

   Archives of Q-Method back issues (including those previously stored
   under QTemp) can be listed by sending the command INDEX Q-METHOD to

  Description:
   QUALITY is the electronic communications network for
   discussing Total Quality Management (TQM) in the manufacturing and
   service industries. TQM refers to an organization-wide effort to
   achieve quality. It can be described as a philosophy that is intended
   to involve everyone in the organization in a quest for quality, with
   customer satisfaction as the driving force.

   The topics for discussion on QUALITY are grouped into three areas:
     1. Quality Systems: quality control; quality assurance; statistical
        process control; employee involvement; JIT; & others.
     2. Quality Standards: ISO 9000 (European & International); Baldrige
        (USA); Deming (Japanese); and JIS (Japanese).
     3. Case Studies and Research Papers

   In order to prevent "rapid-fire" random e-mail transmissions, all
   messages are relayed to the QUALITY editor for a once or twice
   weekly batch mail release in digest form. In addition, each
   subscriber may disable the automatic QUALITY e-mail transmission
   to their site and download logfiles of each month's e-mail
   traffic.

   Datafiles are available for downloading. The objective is to
   develop a clearinghouse of information on TQM.  To receive the
   current listing of files, send the following to the
   subscription address, with the following: "GET QUALITY FILELIST".

   Specialized information or information which is too large for
   normal e-mail is placed in QUALITY datafiles for downloading by

   contained in the file QUALITY INDEX.

   You may "subscribe" to a datafile (such as QUALITY INDEX) in
   one of two ways: 1) automatic downloading of the entire file to

   SHABBATSHALOM is a mailing list to distribute the Aish Ha'Torah
   Shabbat Shalom Fax on the internet via e-mail.
   The Aish HaTorah Shabbat Shalom Fax goes out each week by fax to over
   3,000 Jews worldwide.  It is geared to Jews from little or no
   background who want a Jewish connection, a spiritual connection.  The
   purpose is to inform, educate and perhaps to entertain a bit.

   The format: Question and Answers about holidays, Jewish practises,
   philosopy and life;  Torah Portion overview for the week;  A Dvar
   Torah, a short word of Torah suitable to share with friends at a
   Shabbat meal, which points out a seeming contradiction or problem in
   the text and presents a solution which teaches us a lesson about life
   (usually drawn from the magnificent works of Rabbi Zelig Pliskin).
   Aish News -- what's happening with Aish HaTorah internationally --
   seminars, publications, new Torah tapes.  Candle lighting times for
   various locals.  And finally, a quote of the week.  Periodically,
   there are Freebies -- offers of free items, catalogs, or other
   opportunities that someone would want.

   Written by Rabbi Kalman Packouz, executive director of Aish HaTorah
   Jerusalem's office in Miami Beach, Florida.  Rabbi Packouz is one of
   the first five students at Aish HaTorah, the founder of the first
   Aish HaTorah branch in St.  Louis, Missouri, one of the pioneers in
   the field of Jewish Computer Dating, and an expert in the field of
   preventing intermarriage having written a book on the topic.  He is

   affiliation with the Society for the History of Authorship, Reading,
   and Publishing, SHARP-L means to give all of us
   who take an interest in this burgeoning field a way of exchanging
   ideas, information, and inquiries with other scholars in all
   disciplines all over the world.  Whether your interest is incunabula
   or 20th-century American periodicals, literacy studies or the
   economics of the book trade, library history or literary theory, this
   is a list, and an organization, that hopes to bring us all together
   and get us acquainted.  SHARP-L can be a way of bridging the
   occupational, disciplinary, and geographical differences among
   students of print culture that have tended to keep us isolated and
   all-too-ignorant of one another's work and interests.

  Description:
   SHOGI-L, the Shogi Discussion List, is a mailing list started on
   May 6, 1990 about the strategic board game of Shogi. The list
   serves as a discussion point for Shogi-related topics and as a source of
   information about Shogi tactics and Shogi events. It also offers to Shogi
   players the possibility to engage in e-mail games in a friendly ladder
   competition.

   Shogi is much like 'western' chess, but has some very interesting
   differences.  One is that almost all pieces can promote to stronger
   pieces once they reach the opposite side of the board. The second very
   important difference is that when a piece is captured, it becomes a
   piece for the capturing side, and can be dropped back onto the board!
   This makes for a very exciting game, with an extremely low percentage
   of draws. Many strong Chess players, such as International Master
   Larry Kaufman in the US (who is the strongest non-Japanese player
   outside Japan), have found Shogi to be a great game to play.

   Although played by millions in Japan, so far it isn't well known outside
   Japan. But surely, there are some net-people out there who would
   like to play or get to know more about it. For Apple Macintosh owners
   we also have a Hypercard Shogi Stack available, which contains
   valuable information for every Shogi novice.

   The Social Theory Network aims to provide a forum for the discussion
   of issues relating to social theory within the social sciences with
   particular reference to the relationship between psychological and
   sociological explanations of the human condition. Special emphasis
   is placed upon issues relating to the relationship between the
   individual and social processes in terms of both empirical
   investigations of this phenomena and related theoretical issues.

   In addition, the network is also intended as a forum for the
   discussion of the following:

   1. Issues pertinent to social-psychology, particularly in terms of the
   theoretical underpinnings of this discipline and its relationship to the
   analysis of social behaviour.

   2. Such issues as relativism in the social sciences, the 'scientific'
   status of the social sciences, postmodern theory and the social
   sciences, social constructionism, discourse theory, and so on.

   3. Thematically based discussions, eg the interdisciplinary analysis of
   mental illness, deviance, etc.

   4. All issues relating to the interdisciplinary study of human activity,
   whether methodological, epistemological or ontological in nature (this
   should be primarily based around psychology and sociology although other
   disciplines are not excluded).

   Topics discussed, since the network was created in 1993, include;
   Deindividuation; Narrative; Agency and narrative; Methodological
   pluralism; Individual and society; Small groups; Chomsky; Chomsky
   and Gergen; Learning disabilities; Tattoos and body modifications;
   Double hermeneutics; Weber and the Frankfurt school; Weber/Marx;

  Description:
   As the electronic communication revolution gathers momentum, it is
   becoming clear that we are in the midst of a global transformation
   that will change human thought and experience at an unprecedented
   rate.  One of the least expected but most important areas of culture
   to be affected by the electronic revolution is religious and spiritual
   life.  From traditional forms of western and eastern religion to
   recent experimental groups and sects, individuals on a spiritual path
   are searching for new methods of communication, including the Internet
   and related techologies.

   This list is for the exploration of the implications of
   technospirituality.  Key questions include, but are by no means
   limited to, the following: What new spiritual possibilities does
   cybertechnology create?  How how are individuals and groups using
   computers and the media to deliver their spiritual message, whatever
   it might be?  How does the technology affect their message?  What
   kinds of spiritual experiments are taking place on the Net right now,
   and where will they lead?

   Within this broad framework, no subject is out of bounds.  We want to
   know what is already going on, what you think should be going on, and
   what you fear might be going on.

   TOOLB-L is a list to provide an unmoderated environment where

   applications.  The discussions of TOOLB-L will be archived and

   hypercard stacks.  As is the case on all unmoderated lists, the
   discussion and topics are only limited by the participation and
   interest of its subscribers.  Subscribers are welcome to take an
   active role by posting to TOOLB-L or an inactive role by monitoring
   the list.

   TRDEV-L provides a forum for the exchange of information on the
   training and the development of human resources.  Training is
   designed to improved human work performance on the job, and
   development prepares employees to adjust and grow with the
   organization.  Training and development plays a strategic role in
   organization performance, and human resource professionals have a
   responsibility to explore their field and to expand their knowledge
   base.  Participation in activities such as TRDEV-L assist in
   accomplishing this task.

   The primary focus of this list is to stimulate research collaboration
   and assistance in training and development for the academic and
   professional communities.  We invite the discussion of policy and
   practice issues, the posting of position announcements,
   pre-publication drafts of manuscripts, and news and reports of
   conferences.

   Because of rapid changes in technology, traditional sources of this
   type of information are no longer adequate.  With this in mind, the
   Institute for Research in Training and Development at Penn State
   University in cooperation with The University Research Council in
   Human Resource Development initiated this network for the ongoing and
   timely exchange of information in this field.  This discussion group,
   managed by the Training and Development Society Graduate Student
   Organization at Penn State, was developed and field-tested through a
   grant from the Technical Foundation of America.

   Contributions sent to this list are automatically archived.  You can
   obtain a list of the available archive files by sending an "INDEX
   TRDEV-L" command to the subscription address.  These files can then be

   TRNSPLNT is a discussion list for organ transplant recipients and
   anyone else intested in the issues, experiences and realities of
   living with an organ trasplant.  Over the last 30 years, the number
   of transplants performed each year has grown steadily in both
   absolute numbers and type of organs transplanted.

   Though there are hospital, clinical and pharmaceutical
   industry-sponsored newsletters, there are few, if any, completely
   independent discussion forums for those who have experienced this
   oftentimes dramaticaly effective therapy.

   There are many life issues for the transplant patient that are simply
   not covered in medical literature or by medical personnel.  TRNSPLNT
   will provide a way for members to share information on such things as
   as travel, both domestic and abroad, how to deal with a compromised
   immune system, stories about transplant experiences, and anything
   that the members feel is worth discussing.

   Archives of TRNSPLNT postings can be listed by sending an "INDEX
   TRNSPLNT" command to [e-mail].

   NOTE: This is NOT a medical forum!  Though advice may be offered, you
   should, as with any medical issue, check with your physician before
   you accept anything said in this forum as a basis for doing anything
   that might affect your physical condition!

  Description:
   TV2NITE-L is the mailing list which is used to distribute a daily guide
   to America's favorite pastime: watching prime time network and cable
   television. It was been designed for those of us who don't get complete
   cable listings in their newspaper (or don't get a newspaper), and/or
   don't want to shell out $40 a year for TV Guide.  It's also for people
   who just like the idea of having their evening's entertainment choices
   pop up on their computer screen every day when they log in.

   Every morning, you'll get a new e-mail which summarizes the evening's
   best viewing, followed by a complete programming guide for all major
   broadcast and cable networks.  This will include cable stations that
   many major newspapers don't have the space to list, such as Comedy
   Central, the Science Fiction channel, MTV, etc.  It will also let you
   know who's scheduled to appear on the evening's late night talk shows.

   Of course, even those of us blessed with 70 channels sometimes
   experience an evening where there isn't a thing on the tube we have any
   desire to see.  So the list editors will also let you know when new
   videos are released, on the day they're due to hit the stores.

   One cautionary note: listings are not provided for local stations so you
   won't see listings for syndicated shows like the "Star Trek" series, or
   for your local PBS station.

  Description:
   The purpose of this mailing list is to discuss and promote self-sufficiency
   in everyday life in many forms.  This includes but is not limited to basic
   needs such as food, shelter, health, and safety.  A unique aspect of this
   list, however, unlike many others, is that we will concentrate on the city
   and urban/semi-urbs applications of traditional self-sufficiency
   technology.  Thus, discussions on raising fish in a small backyard pool or
   in a large aquarium instead of in cage-culture rafts on a farm pond;
   raising veggies and some small-tree fruits in containers on the patio or
   under grow-lights at work (a ready source of fluorescent fixtures for most
   of us!) instead of in a 20 x 40 garden plot "out back".

   Certainly folks in a more suburban setting (lucky them!) will find much of
   the "urbanites" content useful, but the list is here first and foremost for
   those of us out here in the Concrete Jungle, for whatever reason.  Some of
   us, like myself, are here using the city's resources to learn before
   setting off for the country or the 'burbs, some are stuck in pay-our-debts
   jobs here, and some just like the active city environment of places like
   Harvard Square or Pike's Place.  But even though we rent our dwellings and
   have a postage-stamp size yard, or none at all, we can still get into doing
   for ourselves in some of the ways our bucolic buddies do.

   Send requests to be added directly to the subscription address
   and include  "urbanites-request" in your subject line.

  Description:
   Mailing list for discussion of Amdahl's UTS/580 implementation of Unix and
   for software running in the UTS environment.  Some potential topics for
   discussion: porting software, integrating with bitnet, internet, and
   servers, requests for help, using UTS-specific features, hardware issues,
   and anything else that's UTS-related.  Discussion should be limited to the
   UTS environment (under VM or native), so this list does not replace
   info-unix, unix-wiz, aix-l, or any other mailing list.  Postings not
   specific to UTS should be posted to one of those lists, instead.
   The list is gatewayed to the newsgroup bit.listserv.uts-l.

   The discussion is not presently moderated, although if message traffic
   warrants, it may be in the future.  All are free to post to the list.  To
   help keep the noise down to a reasonable level, we would appreciate if you
   would contact your site's UTS system administrator (aka "unix guru") for
   help on your question, before you send it out to everyone.

   A monthly notebook of all discussions will be kept online, in files named
   UTS-L LOGYYMM (UTS-L LOG9001, for example) on the Listserv.  To retrieve a
   notebook, send e-mail or an interactive message to Listserv with a message
   text/body of GET UTS-L LOGYYMM.  Listserv database services are also
   available - send INFO DATABASE to the list-server for more information.

   UUs-L is a global meeting place for Unitarian Universalists and

   structural innovations we can make in our organizations and world.

   Electronic conferencing, mail, and the paradigms they encourage are
   something that most members of this list have a growing familiarity
   with.  These are tools which are already having an impact more
   profound than the other major influence on human religion and
   politics;  the printing press.  The effects these tools can have on
   an organization are manyfold;  better, cheaper, more effective
   communications;  improved dynamics for far-flung groups;  and insight
   into the processes that make up even non-electronic communications.

   Virus-L is a forum specifically for the discussion of computer virus
   experiences, protection software, and other virus related topics.  The list
   is currently open to the public and is a non-digest format list.  Readers
   who prefer digest format lists should periodically read the public back
   logs of submissions, available from the submission address.

   Archives are available, as is a file called DIRTY DOZEN which lists a
   number of viruses, trojan horses, and pirated programs for the IBM PC.  All
   submissions to VIRUS-L are stored in weekly log files which can be
   downloaded by any user on (or off) the mailing list.  There is also a small
   archive of some of the public anti-virus programs which are currently
   available.  This archive, too, can be accessed by any user.  All of this is
   handled automatically by the LISTSERV.

   To find out what files are available on the LISTSERV, send mail to
   the subscription address saying "INDEX VIRUS-L".
   Note that filenames/extensions are separated by a space, and not by a
   period.  Once you've decided which file(s) you want, send mail to LISTSERV
   saying "GET filename filetype".
   For example, GET VIRUS-L LOG8804 would get the file called VIRUS-L LOG8804
   (which happens to be the monthly log of all messages sent to VIRUS-L during
   April, 1988).  Note that, starting June 6, 1988, the logs are weekly.  The
   new file format is VIRUS-L LOGyymmx where yy is the year (88, 89, etc.), mm
   is the month, and x is the week (A, B, etc.).  Readers who prefer digest
   format lists should read the weekly logs and sign off of the list itself.

   MMytacist MManufacture - the Weird List.

   This is a moderated mailing list for weird writing, mostly fiction or
   poetry. Disturbing submissions are encouraged, "funny" ones and gag
   endings are not. Newspaper articles or material which is not original
   with the submitter will not be published except under extenuating
   circumstances.  Saying "I once ate my nose" is not appropriate, but a
   story about it might be.  Some may find the material on Weird-l to be
   offensive; consider yourself warned.  The list is very low-bandwidth:
   at most one or two messages per week, with a high signal-to-noise
   ratio because there is no discussion and very rarely administrivia.

  Description:
   The WELSH-L bulletin board aims to foster the amicable discussion of
   questions of the Welsh language, Welsh culture, history, and
   politics, and to offer a forum for speakers and learners of the Welsh
   language.  Both Welsh and English may be used.

   Users are encouraged to exchange their opinions in Welsh, if they
   can, and special consideration may be given to Welsh learners
   expressing themselves in Welsh.

   The emphasis is on Welsh as a living language, and Welsh culture
   as actually lived out in Wales at the present day.  Discussions of
   Celtic myth in general, the relationship between Celtic paganism and
   Anglo-Saxon Wicca, etc.  will probably find a more ready audience on
   the CELTIC-L bulletin board at IRLEARN.UCD.IE.

   If there is an interest in expanding the range of topics to include
   discussion in and about the language and culture of Welsh's close
   sister languages, Breton and Cornish, WELSH-L will be able to serve
   as a forum for that as well.

   Archives of WELSH-L and related files are stored in the WELSH-L
   FILELIST To receive a list of files send the command INDEX WELSH-L to
   the subscription address.
