kristoff@GENBANK.BIO.NET (Dave Kristofferson) (06/02/90)
Nine days after posting my requests to readers to acknowledge their presence on the net, I have received 467 responses. While this is far better than any survey on other topics that I have done previously (and a not unrespectable audience size for a new fangled scientific forum), I have a hunch that this is still short of the mark (I will, for example, eventually calculate a % response based on our own local mailing lists from which I know that many people still have not responded). Please be sure that your vote is counted (but only reply once!!). If you have not yet answered my request to make us aware of your readership of BIONEWS/bionet.general, please send a message (it can be blank, I only need your mail header) to the Internet address survey@genbank.bio.net or to one of the following addresses if they are more readily accessible. I will continue to collect data for several more weeks.

Internet/BITNET My thanks to all of those who have responded and thanks in advance to those who do so in the coming days.
