Greetings!

I am a new reader here.  Could anybody out there point me where I could
ftp the archives of this group? and is there FAQ for this group? 

I am working in Robotics field, but we are doing traditional research,
now I am trying to look for the new approach for the simulation. seems
VR is the direction. However, I know nothing about VR. Could anyone point
me where to start? is there any book or paper to introduce the beginner
in VR field?  Thanks.....
