	 EthInves is a shareware "database" that provides background
	 reference material on socially responsible investing.  This
	 information is provided to help spread the word about ethical
	 investment choices.  EthInves is an electronically published
	 almanac for ethical investors, progressive activists,
	 organizations, researchers, journalists and others.
	 
	 EthInves provides information about newsletters and books on
	 ethical investing, background on socially conscious mutual
	 funds, money market funds and other investment vehicles. 
	 You'll also find information that will help you investigate
	 and evaluate  potential investments including utilities that
	 own nuclear power  plants, the top 100 Dept. of Defense
	 contractors, all the Strategic  Defense Initiative (Star
	 Wars) contractors, companies that still  do business in South
	 Africa, a copy of the Sullivan Principles and  the companies
	 that have signed them.
	 
	 EthInves is shareware and distributed as ASCII text-only
	 files on MS-DOS disks and as MacWrite files on Macintosh
	 disks.  It is also distributed in an archived form to make
	 uploading and downloading both faster and cheaper.  ARCE.COM
	 (MS-DOS) and PackIt III (Macintosh) are distributed with
	 EthInves to allow you to unpack the files.  You can print all
	 or part of it out or use it as a handy on-disk reference when
	 you need a specific piece of information.
	 
	 To obtain your copy of EthInves, send $10 (check or money
	 order) to the address below.  EthInves is available for
	 inspection on the following bulletin boards: PeaceNet, The
	 WELL, CompuServe, MacNet and others. I ask two things of you:
	 that you distribute all of the EthInves files in total
	 without changing the contents and that it not be sold for
	 more than the cost of reproduction and distrubtion.  
	 Registered owners will be sent the next update of EthInves. 
	 I update EthInves every 4-6 months. 
	 
	 Please tell me where you heard about EthInves.  Many thanks
	 to all of you who have helped me compile and distribute this
	 material.
