You can access PDQ via the Internet but please make sure you read the version
for the layperson. You simply won't understand the version for physicians.
I  have found PDQ invaluable for my own clinical practice.
Send email to:

cancernet@icicb.nci.nih.gov   with the word HELP in the body of the message

You'll receive a help file with updated list of cancer protocols by area.
Each protocol will have two numbers: one column will be for physicians only
whereas the second column is geared toward the layperson.

Good luck !

The difference between GEnie and CompuServe has NOTHING to do with
what you pay per message. The differences that will ultimately ensure
that GEnie's gateway turns out a failure are:

1. The $9.95 per month fee -- outrageous and unjustifiable (and stupid
   -- are they TRYING to discourage people?);

2. The fact that you STILL can't send mail from the Internet to a
GEnie user unless the poor fool has agreed to get socked for $10 a
month. You may as well not have a gateway at all if there's n way to
tell whether or not your mail will get through.

If they feel a need to charge for the service -- and I understand that
-- then just make it part of the $6/hour services and be done with it.
I said in the GEnie topic that you'd be a fool to sign up for it (and
was sideswiped by a makreting type there fo it) but I stand by the
remark. I cannot think of a more expensive way to get mail access to
the net.

	It has been, and there is - provided they have signed up for the
Internet service on GEnie.

	If they have done so, then:

	user.name@GEnie.geis.com

	(where user.name is their GEnie address) will reach them. If not,
you will receive a bounce from geis.com telling you that they are not
enrolled in the service or something to that effect (the service is a $9.95
/mo option).

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

	To reach AOL just send to auser@aol.com (all lower case using their
user name in place of the auser, of course).

	Neither CI$ nor AOL require special enrollments as does GEnie, so
ALL users may receive/send mail to/from Internet users.

	Prodigy does _not_ have an Internet connection at this time,
although (from what I have been told by members), there are some indications
that they intend to add one.

	Hope it helps.

STN international in Germany is accessable from the internet via the 
DFNCPT X.29-Telnet Protocol Translator. 
	DFN = German Research Network, "Deutsches Forschungsnetz"
        CPT = Cisco Protocol Translator

The DFNCPT is installed at the GMD in Germany and can be reached as
dfncpt.gmd.de or 192.88.108.250.

The DFNCPT also has a "direct dial" number for STN-International (Germany)
so that it is not necessary to connect via DFNCPT to STN by hand. Just 
telnet to 192.88.108.112 which will be converted to a X.29-call of 45050160241.
Press "enter" to get the login prompt. But be sure that you have your terminal
in 7-bit data mode! 

It is possible that the STN account numbers from STN in the USA does
not work at STN-International in Germany. Because I didn't have an
US-account I can't it.

PS: More informations about the DFNCPT are available via anonymous ftp
    from ftp.gmd.de (File: gmd/generic/dfncpt/dfncpt-1.1.ps.Z). This

It is an unrealistic request, and it would not be possible.

First of all, there are more machines on the Internet than can be properly
tracked.  In July 1992, there were at least 992,000 (4/92 - 890,000,
1/92 - 727,000) hosts on the Internet.  There are more than 1000 hosts added
per day and the rate of growth is increasing.  There is no canonical list of
sites and by the time you could generate one it would be out of date.
[see RFC 1296]

Second of all, to try to track down all the user names on all of these hosts
would be even worse.  Most machines on the Internet support more than one
person.  Thus the problem of tracking users is a larger problem than tracking
hosts.  Even tracking users is problematical since many of the machines are
personal computers and do not even have user names.

Finally, even if you could produce a list of all the user names on all the
hosts on the Internet and were able to correctly determine duplicates and
eliminate them, there is the problem of determining the "real name" of the
user.  Many sites do not require the "real name" of the user to be attached
to the user name of the account.  In fact in some cases, it might even be
illegal to release the information on who owns the account unless there are
warrants specifically to gain the information.

The size of the Internet has grown to the point that you cannot get cannonical
lists anymore.  Just as there is no one phone book for most countries, or even
one phone book for most states, there is no "mail book" for the Internet.

	Now would you like to compare the "monthly allowance" on CI$ (for
$7.95/mo.) to what you get on GEnie for $4.95+$9.95 (i.e., _0_ pieces of
email)?

	Arguments that GEnie's Internet connection are anything but a rip
off are absurd. When even CI$ is _significantly_ less expensive (and
services such as MCI mail even more so), those arguments fall rather flat.

	Save them for the newbys on GEnie, Andy, _everyone_ here knows
better!

   Hi.  I'm a CWRUnet fiber-optic technicians and an addicted
user of the Cleveland Freenet.  Here are some answers for you!

   You can reach the busy programming staff of the Cleveland

"go INS" at any "your choice==>" prompt and select option three.  
And there is information available at ftp.cwru.edu, with an

   Good luck with the Cleveland Freenet.

Complains if there are too many sites.  For instance, 
try to find the fictional character Harold Magee at DEC.

Here's a simple shell script I use about once every other

Another way of determining e-mail addresses that I did not notice in

telnet bruno.cs.colorado.edu

You need to have a good idea of the name of the organization where the

Well, I have an active account with the Cleveland Free-Net. One Adminstrator
id is (xx998), and as you can't use the E-mail facility from a guest login
you will need to mail them from your other accounts.

As for printing, you could try and save the stuff in a file in your work
directory (after your account is active), and then use FTP to YOUR account
on the Fee-Net (NOT ANONYMOUS) and ternsfer it over.

Hope this helps,

Ken, yes, most of the people in this  newsgroup surely see it for 
what it is. What you suggest, however is a bit of a waste of time
because most of the responses you will get will be from the
'free-flaggers' that frequent the board. Might I suggest emailing
the newbies who post to that topic?

I've long since abandoned GEnie posts as an effective tool. The syops
get paid based on the amount of use to their BB's. ALSO, the amount
that someone downloads.  

I think a post stating the internet availabilty on OTHER commercial
services and the prices would show the rip off.

Indeed, America Online does "charge" its users based on connect time.
With a number of different pricing plans in use at AOL, your costs
will vary, of course, depending on A: hourly charge, B: small message
sizes, C: monthly hourly usage in excess of pricing plan, and
D: the efficiency of the connection between your computer and AOL.

} Well forget the slandering... I'd just be interested in
} the 2 platforms and Clinton's economic plan for now.

There are some Clinton papers available in:
	world.std.com:/obi/USElection/President
	ftp.uu.net:/doc/literary/obi/USElection/President

There are currently 76 papers, about 600 KB compressed worth.

If anyone knows where similar things for Bush are then let me know and
I'll see they get added to these as well.

This is (yet again) IDS. You have to *pay* to use it.

Please try some of the net's *free* stuff first!

The most tried and tested form of internet cancer treatment is of course
to try and get into the Guiness book of records for having the most 
postcards. Thus far, it has a 100% success rate :-)

Probably the best source of information would be found on one of the medical
databases like MEDLINE. On usenet, the best newsgroup is probably sci.med.
