     I recently subscribed to your list.  I was surprised to find that
I didn't receive any mail in the first week.  I now know why.  It appears
that law students don't use computers or at least mainframe computers that
access Bitnet.  I for one use computers and would like to be part of a list
that discusses law student problems, questions etc.  Additionally, I think
your list should cover topics related to Computer Law since subscribers
who bother to converse over your list probably are computer "people" who
aspire to go to law school and possibly practice law in the Computer Law,
Intellectual Property, or Patent Law area.
     I move ("legalese for suggest") that we open up this list to discuss
the above mentioned topics so that this list will grow.  Attorneys and law
students who own computers and have access to mainframes probably are
very interested in discussing current events regarding Computer Law,
Intellectual Property and Patent Law.
     To get things rolling, I suggest that any attorney who subscribed to
this list (as few as there may be on Bitnet) and law school professors
(who probably are in greater numbers) throw up some current topics related
to law school, or computer law et al. so this list can be a useful and
entertaining medium.
     What do you think!

     Very Truly Yours,
