Greetings. I am looking for archives of Usenet groups. As part of a bibliometric study, I need a large number of articles for analysis (ie, in excess of 5000 -- preferably more). Since some of the newsgroup ascesion numbers are in the tens of thousands, these are ideal for my study. If you know how to access archives, and where they are, please let me know. -- Greg Newby gbnewby@rodan.acs.syr.edu gbnewby@sunrise.bitnet

Since news.lists indicates that traffic is >25000 articles a week, you can get this from any site which keeps at least two days worth of news around. I'm a little surprised that your site doesn't have this mush, they must run a daily expire or something. -- bill davidsen (davidsen@crdos1.crd.GE.COM -or- uunet!crdgw1!crdos1!davidsen) "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward" -me
