The machine is cert.sei.cmu.edu (128.237.253.5) and the file name is pub/virus-l/docs/gao_rpt. Anyone interested in an electronic copy may get it from there by anonymous ftp. The part about confirmation of receipt of the report is explained in the following excerpt from above file: ************************************************************** * This is the first GAO report to be made available over * * the Internet. GAO wants to know how many people * * acquire the report this way. If you are reading this, * * please send mail to me and I'll keep * * count for them. Your name will not be saved or used. * ************************************************************** Would those of you who received the report from me via email (or who got a copy from someone who did) please email to swolff@nsf.gov. I want to encourage the government to do more of this kind of thing. P.S. Thanks again Ken :-) - -- Dave Dittrich Dept. of Chemistry BG-10, University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98195 dittrich@u.washington.edu ...!uw-beaver!u.washington.edu!dittrich "Teachers are the only profession that teach our children."
