Mike,

I was going to right you a nice cheery letter beginning:
	"Fortunately for both of you, I come across all sorts of obscure 
information in this job.  :-)   IBM runs a nationwide system of Guided
Learning Centers, which furnish self-instruction materials on obscure
subjects up to and including System 36;  costs generally run $60-65 per
half-day..."

Then I checked your system name in uuhosts.  I had no idea whether IBM's
"nationwide" system of Guided Learning Centers is available in Stockholm,
or indeed anywhere outside US borders!  So I called IBM here in Chicago,
and got a woman who tried to tell me about their centers in such foreign
countries as Alaska (!) and Guam.

I finally got it through her head that EUROPEAN information would be
appreciated, and she referred me to the Atlanta Guided Learning Center:

	Sara Coggins	(404) 847-7069
	Peg Johnson	(404) 847-6075

These two should be able to give you information on System 36 courses in
Stockholm.  Good luck!
