Zip + 4 data from the post office takes up something like 30 2400 foot 1600bpi tapes, or something in excess of 1.3G of data. I don't know of any archive site for it, and given the size I doubt there is one. The post office is perfectly willing to sell the data, it costs something like $1500/year, with either monthly or quarterly updates. (With logic only the Post Office could use, the cost is the same whether you get the monthly or the quarterly updates.) If you are interested, call the customer service rep at your local post office. They will refer you to their addressing systems group in Memphis. (There is a toll-free number for that office, but I don't have it handy. Sorry.) Michael Nolan nolan@helios.unl.edu

Or, you could just wait for Lotus to put it out on CD-ROM! :-) :-) Andy ==-- -====--- Andreas Meyer, N2FYE ahm@rick.att.com --==---- AT&T Computer System Technical Services ..!att!rick!ahm ----
