   Gould also makes all of it's SPR's available to the public by dialup.
They have put all of their SPR's in a HyperSearch infobase which is
accessible by anyone with a modem. HyperSearch allows you to search the
infobase by any word in the document.

   How's that for exposing yourself?

   For Doug, please send me some information on the "gouldbugs" mailing
list?
