The article is more than half page long. To save my time, instead of making a summery, I am posting a part of JBH Online news. By the way, for those who do not subscribe to NYT, and can not find it in a library (!), I recommend subscribing to the JBH online mailing list. For people on BITNET, type: IBM/VM: TELL LISTSERV AT IRISHVM SUB ONLINE-L your name VAX/VMS: SEND LISTSERV@IRISHVM SUB ONLINE-L your name For non-BITNET people, send email with text: SUB ONLINE-L your name to: listserv@irishvm.bitnet ------------------------------------------------------- Date: Sun, 19 Feb 89 14:28 EST To: JBH Online subscribers <ONLINE@IRISHMVS> From: NYT Listing from JBH Online <NYTLSTG@IRISHMVS.BITNET> Subject: NYT Sun, 19 Feb 1989 Status: R &&&&&&&&&&&& Welcome to the NYT Listing from JBH Online &&&&&&&&&&&& Sunday, 19 February 1989 The following items included in this morning's National Edition of the New York Times caught my eye: > the San Francisco/Moscow Teleport, a direct computer link between the US and USSR (already familiar to recipients of several electronic mail discussion lists, including Disarm-L) (sec. 1, pp. 1 & 20); (about 100 lines deleted) --------------------------------------------------------------------- I hope regular netters of comp.misc can help summarize the part about Usenet debate. -- Zhenqin Li (607) 255-0556 (O) | "All hope carry annotations."
