First, before I get to my latest comments.  Thanks to everyone who shipped
me a piece of working $GETUAI code.  I found the bug I was having with my own
piece of code, and some of the stuff that was shipped was better than what I
was trying to do.

*Flame On*

With regards to the "Voluminous Viewer Mail" from INFO-VAX, I don't see anything
wrong with it.  I save 2 or 3 pieces a day, sometimes more...  often on a 
subject that I never even thought about previously...  As long as the volume
is quality stuff, keep it up.

My comment is that if you are going to submit something, please attach a valid
address to it.  Don't depend on the mailer program(s) your mail passes through
to do it for you, it doesn't always work.  Internet addresses are best, since
(almost) everyone knows how to reach the Internet.  If you don't know
your Internet address, then at least mention your local network address and what
network you are on.  I would recognize that $JJM@CLVM is a Bitnet address,
but not everyone else will...

*Flame Off*

Now finally, my question...  I am trying to compile a list of known gateways
out of the two wide area DECnets named SPAN (Nasa Space Physics Analysis
Network) and HEPNET (High Energy Physics Network).  I already know of the
well documented ones (Like VLSI.JPL.NASA.GOV) but I am trying to locate all
of them.  If you have any info, I would apprecaite it if you could send me a
copy....

Regards,
^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v
