I think the bibliographies being posted to the net are great. I'd like to follow up on some of the references, but I don't know where to obtain copies for many of them. Is there some standard protocol and contact point for requesting copies of technical reports from universities? Is there a service company somewhere from which one could order such publications with limited distribution? Curiously, Fred Yankowski Bell Labs Rm 6B-216 Naperville, IL ihnp4!ihuxo!fcy

Bizarrely enough, MIT and Stanford AI memos were recently issued by some company on MICROFILM (!) for some exorbitant price. This price supposedly gives you all of them plus an introduction by Marvin Minsky. They advertised in Scientific American a few months ago. I guess this is a good deal for large institutions like Bell, but smaller places are unlikely to have a microfilm (or was it fiche) reader. MIT AI TR's and memos can be obtained from Publications, MIT AI Lab, 8th floor, 545 Technology Square, Cambridge, MA 02139.
