	I've been trying to reach Mike for three weeks now without
reply. Either he doesn't have access to the system or he is ignoring
us. It is not that the address doesn't work, as I've reached John
Harrison over it. From what I've been told by Commodore, the details
of the ASOCC program are not yet completed. When I know, I'll post it
here (if I'm not beaten to it 8). Also, the distinct impression I'm
getting is that, although Commodore is putting a lot of effort into
higher education, that effort (including the related money) is all
going to the schools which have Amigas in use academically. Here at
Columbia I have a friendly dialog going on with J.H., however we are
not getting any substantive support, at least not after I heard what
CBM's doing for Ohio State! I do understand, and so am not bitter.
However, we are considering going after a local dealer and working
with them.
