Would it be possible to feed the SPACE Digest with any NASA press releases or
reports, if they are available at some stage in their preparation in an
electronic form, related to current activities? We have seen the regular
media neglect the spece missions more and more (this is inevitable as
they become more common, and actually, I suppose, desirable, as we make
space-based activities a normal and ordinary part of human actions). I
would think that NASA would still be preparing info or reports about the
results of shuttle missions and other space activities, and such could
be "narrowcasted" to those of us interested in the subject via this
electronic medium. If they exist in an on-line form on a machine
connected into the Internet in some way, could it be made a standard
practice to release these via electronic mail to this list at the same
time as they are released on paper through more traditional channels?

Any NASA types out there -- please pass this on to your PR people.
(Send it in as a suggestion and make a few bucks! That's fine with me!)
