Hi all --- I have about three points to make that probably have nothing to do with each other, but here goes: 1.) I really dislike having whole articles reposted with a reply. I can usually remember a thread without seeing the initial article. If people absolutely MUST repost articles, maybe they can post the pertinent parts instead of the whole thing. While I have the soapbox, I might also make the following rule. If your signature file is longer than your message, please either shorten the signature or dont bother posting the message. 2.) I have a fairly good reason to feel strongly about not wasting huge amounts of bandwidth. The Museum of Paleontology gopher now has an archive and index of all Museum-l postings from January thru April 1994 and will continue to archive postings throughout the year at the end of every month. Take a look by gophering to ucmp1.berkeley.edu and looking for the top menu item called Museum Listserver Archive. Let me know what you think. 3.) Finally, we hope to have the archive up on our Web server in the near future. And speaking of Web servers... I only know two or three other museum servers besides ours and the Exploratoriums. One is the Krannert Art Museum in Illinois and the another is Louvre in, well you know where the Louvre is. If people are interested, I can post some URL's (Universal Resource Locators) which have compiled "virtual museum" locations on the Internet.
