I believe your assertion is false.  Although the ARPANET is "soley for
the conduct of, or in support of, official U.S. government business",
if you had around $100,000.000 (in U.S. Federal Reserve Notes) you
could buy onto CSNET, and do lotsa nifty things.

Now, back to graphics!  Does anyone have a bibliography for anything
close to "computer generated art"?  If so, I'd be interested in hearing
from you in e-mail!
