In my previous article, I forgot to supply a mailing address for tapes.

To repeat:

Archive access is NOT automated, but to retrieve one or two files, I am willing
to send the file out via uucp mail.  If multiple modules are requested, then
I usually request a 9 track tape along with a self-addressed stamped mailer,
(along with a note explaining which sources are being requested) and I will
put the sources onto the tape in 1600bpi "tar" format.  Access is also
available via a uucp login if you are willing to dial in (contact me via
uucp mail for more details).

Note that I sometimes get backlogged, but if you send mail to me, and don't
get a reply in a reasonable time (two weeks?) then you can assume that either
I never recieved your note, or your reply got eaten.  (uucp mail is notoriously
unreliable!)  Also, if you expect a reply via uucp mail, PLEASE include a
return address starting at some well known site - especially if you are on
some local network that uses unusual addressing conventions.  More than once
I have not been able to reply (and the apparent source sitename was not
in the uucp map!)
