Hi, Jenny -
 
That's the thing at Carnegie Mellon University I mentioned last week (or
the week before).
 
http://www.umich.edu/~wwwitd/sw-info/gis/gahm.html is the only place
Excite finds it.
 
When I did GAHM, I found the item below the line of ======.  Both of
these suggest to me that it must be available someplace/somehow, but I
don't have a clue how.  CMU doesn't have any readily visible search
engine on its front page.
 
HTH.
