Oh no, don't do it! You will see a lot of wrong grammar - especially
awfully wrong punctuation - and poor phrasing. Much better would be to read
a good German newspaper, which had the additional advantage to inform you
about what is going on in Germany. (Well, at least about those things the
editors consider important.)

Does anyone know if access to MEDLINE (Lockheed's medical database)
is possible via the internet. I assume that one has to be a registered
'user' before access is possible.

Thanks.

Actually, there is information and internet access available
for cancer. Unfortunately, I'm in the process of moving and
cannot, at this time, post the information.  Try calling
1-800-4-cancer     This is the National Cancer Institute. They
should be able to give you information on the cancer
itself and on the internet access.  I'm sorry I can't
give more detailed information...   the internet access
is new and was announced a few weeks ago.

Also, someone mentioned MEDLINE...  CANCERLINE is
produced by the same people (National Library of
Medicine), but is a database of NCI's.

No. If you are on the "basic plan" CI$ connect time for mail is free and
you pay $7.95/month. Internet mail carries some extra charges:

Send mail (per message):
first 7500 chars	$.15
additional 2500 chars	$.05

Read/download Internet messages:
(same)

And you get $9/month "credit" on your email.

If you are on the "alternative pricing plan" (like me) you only pay for
connect time. It costs the following if you connect to a CIS node:
 300 bps	$ 6.30/hr
1200, 2400 bps	$12.80/hr
9600 bps	$22.80/hr

And there are a lot of programs and scripts that will let you 
essentially send and receive your mail as a batch transaction. 
I use CIM 2.x on my XT and in takes a minute or two most days.

Oh yes, outgoing mail is limited to 50k max, text only. 
Incoming mail bigger than 50k becomes a "file" message (those are 
limited to 500k).

     Hello everyone,
 
     Where could I connect to a German dictionary internet site like UBC's.
What I would be expecting to do is something like the following:
 
     DEFINE MENSCH
 
     Mensch meinst eine Person.  Ein Human.
 

     DEFINE LAND
 
     Ein Land ist ein Staat, zum Beispiel Deutschland ist ein Land.  Es gibt
viele Laender in der Welt, wie Kanada, die Vereinigten Staaten, usw.
 
 
 
     The purpose of such a site is that I am wanting to brush up on my 
advanced German skills so that I can travel to Germany and Austria next year.
 
     Mit vielen Dank,
         Lyle

I posted this suggestion myself, but it does not satisfy the
specification I gave above, because Netfind requires the person's name
AND at least a partial name of the place where he or she has the
account.  If you don't know the latter information, or you have
misspelled it, you are out of luck.

So Netfind is not an Internet-wide White Pages, which I still think 
would be a useful service.

Also, as someone pointed out, in practice Netfind is not very
effective when directed at commercial organizations.  This has been my
experience also; in general searches of universities succeed and
searches of companies fail.

This is good as long as the hosts are on Internet but most commercial
sites just have a MX set to a main machine disallowing any SMTP
probing of their domain. Some such sites have registered in the X.500 
service or support whois or ph queries etc. 

Can anyone explain how exactly a X.500 query works? I have come across
a UK machine which allows querying interactively. Is the query done on
that machine or does it contact other machines for it? I would be more
comfortable with doing a query (similar to ph or whois) than opening
up a interactive session across the atlantic and waiting for it to
resolve the query. In short, is there a X.500 client available?

Thanks for any info.

May I respectfully point out that Compuserve does "charge" for reading
or writing Internet mail.  Once you have exceeded your monthly allowance
of ($9? Sam Neely should know) you get charged per message and/or per
hour, depending on your pricing plan option.

Unfortunately, placement of local nodes is a difficult issue.
GEnie has announced that they will be adding alternative network

I am the first to admit that GEnie doesn't always have the best
solution for everyone in the world... but I think (personal opinion,
and yes I admit bias) they have done a really terrific job for
most people.  And I know, through personal conversations, that
everyone at GEnie wishes they WOULD be the best solution for
everyone in the world.

So far this thread has developed into an alt.GEnie.services type discussion
not an alt.internet.services.

Suffice it to say that GEnie has a gateway with costs to the GEnie subscriber.

The fact that there are GEnie users who have other internet connections
(or vice versa) doesn't automatically thread the two subjects together.

	While I'm not absolutely positive, I sincerely doubt that you'll find
such a file.  There are millions of addresses accessible through internet.
Any such file would be impossible to maintain not to mention it's size.

Yup.  And the proper forum for that is not here in alt.internet.services,
but on GEnie - to FEEDBACK via private electronic mail, and as articles in
the correct topics (I can give you a list, but you've already been posting
there :-).  Since you are concerned about the "Computing RT Sysops", then
a letter to Kent Fillmore, email address DRACO, is also appropriate.  He
manages the entire Computing On GEnie area and I feel sure would enjoy
reading how his areas will suffer by this Internet gateway.

My "defense" here was purely to state factual information, not opinion or
diatribe.  My "defense" on GEnie is to support those who =have= signed up
for the Internet product (and by the way, the help file from FTPMAIL is
now online:), and to answer technical questions ("how to" and "can I do
this") for anyone who cares to ask.

There is a protocol for managing this type of information:  X.500.
Unfortunately, I cannot add any real information on the subject, but

Um, doesn't he need to do something with chmod as well to make it world readable
or is automatically that way if it is .sig or in his root directory? Another
question: Does it make a difference what directory the .sig file is in?

I *think* that if you have a password to BRS, you can login through the MERIT
gateway. Telnet  hermes.merit.edu   and at the prompt type "?" Go to the
SERVICES menu and follow instructions. BRS *should* be one of the choices.

Actually, the same 100 journals, the Year Book series, and the 20 or so
medical textbooks that are online in BRS are also available in the
Comprehensive Core Medical Library in EPIC which is accessible via OCLC.ORG.

=	To reach CI$ just send to 77###.###@compuserve.com (using their
=number on CI$ and replacing the usual "," with a ".").

Make that: "send to 7####.###@compuserve.com..."

Not all CIS numbers begin with 77.
