Congratulations Amy for Conch-L's new web interface and archive !!! Great
great work!!

Just as a test I tried to search the word "Helmut" and almost crashed the
UGA computer. First it refused the search with a message "Give me a break!",
second it said that the search would take three days since there were too
many entries for this word, and then it sent me a page that said that there
were 1253 messages (up to 6:35PM Brazilian Time...) and guess what?

The first message is asking for shell donations; the second a test; the
third also asking for donations!! Gee!!

Coming back for a serious matter, this is a very powerful tool we have in
our hands. For example: may be I'll go to Isla Margarita to attend an
OAS/CITEL meeting (isn't it a nice place for a meeting) next month. A search
tells me that there are 9 entries. I'll search them and I won't bother you
about where to shell there unless there is something else I need to know.

One more time, MANY THANKS Amy.

Cheers,

Eduardo Moreira

Assunto: NEW web interface and archive for conch-l


I want to announce a new web interface for UGA lists (including conch-l):
        http://www.listserv.uga.edu/archives/conch-l.html
You can subscribe, unsubscribe, post and best of all you can SEARCH the
archived files.
This web interface been set up by the UGA computer support listserv staff -
particularly Jean Snow.
I will be updating the list's messages and web site to point to this new
web service.  You can still use the email commands - however you may find
you like the web pages more.
Enjoy
Amy
