<>  Last year I wrote an article about USENET for "The Event",
the quarterly newsletter of the Tri-State Metro Naturists.  Last
month I sent a copy of it to Lee Baxandall, national coordinator
for The Naturist Society.  He replied with a short letter indicating
that he had already known about "net.rec.nude" and that, indeed,
it was being used in advertising.  He included a copy of an ad
for the "World Guide to Nude Beaches and Recreation" which starts:

           Skinnydipper Computerists 
           NET.REC.NUDE   [in big "computer" type]
           is a familiar command for our members and readers...

  That particular ad format is used in the Lupin Naturist Resort
magazine.
  Now the question: Lee asked for suggestions as to where else
that ad format would be appropriate.  Any suggestions?  (BYTE?
COMPUTE?...statistics show that a large percentage of naturists
are people who work in the computer field).
