Is there a discussion group on chaos - mathmatical approaches and graphic representations especially. If not, how does one start a new news group? CHARLES REZAC * bitnet: REZAC@UKANVAX internet: rezac@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu

If not, how does one start a new news group? There are a number of avenues. First, there's the groups comp.theory.dynamic-sys, comp.theory.neural-nets, and comp.theory.self-org-sys. They are all relatively dormant, and your site might not carry them. Post something to get them started. Then there's sci.math for the more mathematical aspects. Also, there's a mailing list on fractals, FRAC-L@GITVM1.BITNET, which is especially interested in graphics. Also, let me plug my own list on Systems Theory and Cybernetics, CYBSYS-L@BINGVMB.BITNET. A lot of our readers are very interested in chaos. A note about these LISTSERV mailing lists, because these are different from news. They generally run on the "parallel world" of VM/CMS IBM operating systems and BITNET only nodes. These poor souls labor without News! The LISTSERV functions at a site are divided between the server functions and the list functions proper. Consider a list FOO-L@BAR.BITNET. To subscribe, send a mail message to LISTSERV@BAR.BITNET containing only the message 'SUB FOO Joe Blow'. You can also get help by sending the message 'HELP' to the same address. Once your are subscribed, mail to the list itself at the address FOO-L@BAR.BITNET. -- O----------------------------------------------------------------------> | Cliff Joslyn, Cybernetician at Large | Systems Science, SUNY Binghamton, cjoslyn@bingvaxu.cc.binghamton.edu V All the world is biscuit shaped. . .

I haven't looked deeply into sci.physics to see if there's any active choas discussions, but that's where I'd look, and possibly sci.math. If you want to create a new newsgroup, the instructions are to be found in news.announce.newusers, where one of the threads is specifically devoted to the ins and outs of creating newsgroups. Basically works under a house vote. -- Avery Ray Colter avery@well.sf.ca.us 71067.606@compuserve.com {apple,lamc,lll-winken,cogsci,hplabs,pacbell}!well!avery "....Fat-Bottomed Girls, You Make the Rockin` World Go ROUND!" -Queen
