information professionals around the world.  Companies pursuing
European markets will need the business, legal, scientific, and
technical information necessary to support new business ventures.
Special librarians from a variety of settings will need to be
aware of E.C. legislation affecting data flow and be able to
employ a variety of strategies to access information from member
nations effectively.

Speakers include:  Nigel Oxbrow, Task Force Pro Libra; Peter
Doyle & Barbara Sloan of the Delegation of the Commission of the
European Community; Barry Mahon, European Association on
Information Services (EUSIDIC); and Peggy Slye, International
Telecommunications Satellite Organization (INTELSAT).

Fees:  $375-SLA Members, $475-nonmembers
Fees include preconference readings and Institute handout
materials.  Continental breakfasts (2), lunches (2), and a
cocktail reception are also included in the registration fee.
Confirmation will be sent upon receipt of registration.

Location:  The Institute will be held at the Washington Marriott
Hotel located at 1221 22nd Street, NW, Washington, DC.  A block
of rooms has been set aside at the Marriott specifically for
Institute registrants.  Rates are $120 for a single or double.
Reservations may be made by calling the Washington Marriott at
(202) 872-1500.  The Marriott is located within walking distance
from Dupont Circle and Foggy Bottom Metro (subway) and is
convenient to Washington's National Airport.

Those *are* finding aids - but only good if you have Magazine Collection
and/or Business Collection, which are full-text articles on microfilm
cassette. That's probably why they won't remove them. How about posting a

We have an Okidata 320 at each of our 7 Medline workstations, Okidatas at
each of our 8 terminals and XTs connected to Vax mainframe (maybe 7), and
for each of 7 opac terminals (switch allows 2 terminals to a printer).  We
all know how to quickly fix paper jams, load paper, and coax a recalcitrant
printer back into operation.  People can download, but very few do.  People
begin looking for journals/articles as soon as they've printed their search
results.  Downloading would add an extra step to that process.
        Most of our patrons appear to be conscious of the need to conserve
trees/paper.  We also show people how to format their printing so they
print only needed information.  Also, people recognize that printing also
takes time and try to avoid printing reams of citations they will not likely
need.  People also seem to avoid getting new ribbons unless the print is
completely unreadable.  I'm usually the one that "tells" a patron "this printer
needs a new ribbon."
        My bias is that there be a printer available for each library and pc
terminal.  Downloading adds another step, decreases the time saved by searching
the CD ROM db in the first place, and places an unfair burden on the poor --
usually the student.

The mail-l list you are on is a Listserv list. Listserv is an automatic
process. To be removed from a list a Listserv program runs (Listserv
runs on many VM computers on Bitnet) you need to send a command to the
Listserv running that particular list.

I suggest that you send an item of mail with just the following line
as the first and line in the mail message:

UNSUB MAIL-L



You should send this to LISTSERV@BITNIC (a BITNET address), rather than
to MAIL-L. Items sent to MAIL-L go to all of the other folks on that mailing
list, but probably to no one who can get you off the list. Be sure to send
the message from the account to which you are getting the MAIL-L mail.
(GENNINGS@VCUVAX via BITNET).

If you have trouble, there should be someone at your site who can help you
out.

Good luck.

=======================  Forwarded  Message  ===========================

The Nation Tues Sept 29

ARMY chief Gen Wimol Wongwanit said yesterday that he wants his soldiers to be
progressive mind, a quality he said is helpful for the development of the
armed force.

  Wimol was speaking to about 230 commanders from Army units throughout the
  country at the Army Auditorium.

  Wimol said Army personnel should regularly monitor the world's up-to-date
  situations as well as economics and cultural ones to catch up with all kinds
  of changes.

  ``These will make our personnel progressive-minded which will be useful to
  the development of the Army,'' Wimol said.

  Many Army officers were severely criticized as being too conservative
  following the May bloodshed. Some of them came out to defend the use of
  forces to crush anti-Suchinda demonstrators.

  During a political discussion at the Army Auditorium early this month,
  politicians from the parties which took part in the anti-Suchinda rallies
  received boos and jeers from the soldiers.

  Wimol told the commanders that the Army had to try every means possible to
  restore the public faith toward it. The May bloodshed, in which at least 52
  people were killed and hundreds others injured, caused many middle-classed
  people to hate soldiers.

  The Army chief, who has repeatedly said he would distance himself from
  politics and who always appeared cautious when asked to comment on politics,
  said he was pleased that so far none of his sub-ordinates had involved
  themselves in politics.

  Wimol thanked the commanders for having seen to it that their sub-ordinates
  exercised their voting-right in Sept 13's election with no negative reports
  against the Army.

  The Army chief also told the commanders that he thought that the Chuan
  Government would run the country smoothly.

  Wimol asked the the commanders to understand the press when they approached
  him for comments on politics. He said the press was just attempting to make
  their reports comprehensive and not trying to involve the Army in politics.

    I think that the United States should accept all Vietnamese refugees who
apply for assylum in the US.  I also think that other Western countries should
accept more Vietnamese too, especially France and Australia.  France owes a
terrible debt to the Vietnamese people for 150 years of colonial brutality,
and Australia has a population shortage.
    As far as the US is concerned, there are a few hundred thousand Vietnamese
refugees in camps right now.  The United States would be more than capable of
absorbing them.  There is no reason why Vietnamese should have to languish in
those wretched camps.

    No aid should go to Vietnam, however, until the Communist regime in Hanoi
has been overthrown.  Any aid given before Hanoi falls will do nothing to help
the people, instead, it will strengthen the Hanoi regime; in short, aid now
would be worse than useless.  Once Vietnam has a democratic government, I
feel that the West should give prompt and significant aid to help Vietnam
recover from her Communist nightmare.

CAMBODIANS BEGIN VOTER REGISTRATION FOR NEXT YEAR'S ELECTION

PHNOM PENH (OCT. 5) DPA - Cambodians began arriving at pagodas, factories and
U.N. offices in the capital on Monday as voter rgeistrtation for next year's
elections got under way.

''We had problems... but it worked,'' said a U.N. volunteer helping supervise
Cambodian electoral officers at the 22 registration centres opened in the
capital.

At the end of the day the U.N. electoral component had registered just 2,509
people, she added.

Seven parties have provisionally registered to contest next year's elections to
a 120-seat constituent assembly, but the leftist Khmer Rouge faction is
currently boycotting the peace pact it signed a year ago with three other
parties.

French bikers begin Harley rally in Vietnam

    HO CHI MINH CITY, VIETNAM, Sept 30, Reuter - French motorcyclists roared
out of Ho Chi Minh City on Wednesday on an unusual journey to Hanoi, driving
Harley Davidson motorcycles that belonged decades ago to South Vietnam's
presidential motorcade.
    Hundreds of Vietnamese cheered and clapped, while others set off
firecrackers, as the 11 motorcycles left the People's Committee, a refurbished
French colonial building, and headed down Nguyen Hue Street.
    Twenty-six French men and women were making the trip, some driving Harleys,
while others followed in cars and vans.
    The bikers, including French singer Florent Pagny and business people, were
scheduled to donate medicine to hospitals on the 2,000-km (1,250-miles) journey
to Hanoi.
    "We're discovering a country. We're taking the time to do it in a way that
is original," Daniel Roussel, a former journalist who organised the rally, told
Reuters.
    He said he had found the Harleys rusting in a garage in Ho Chi Minh City in
1990. They were made in the United States in 1957 and comprised the police
motorcade for former South Vietnamese President Nguyen Van Thieu before the
Vietnam War ended in 1975 and Saigon became Ho Chi Minh City.
    Roussel, who now runs a small television production company, arranged to
rent the motorcycles from the Ho Chi Minh City police and have their 900-cc
motors rebuilt for the trip.
    Vietnamese police riding new Japanese motorbikes with screaming sirens
cleared the street on Wednesday for Roussel's group. The bikers included the
two Toure brothers, lead singers in a Paris-based Senegalese group, Toure
Kunda.
    The group planned to drive through Nha Trang, Danang and Hue on a journey
organisers called "the Mandarin route" before reaching Hanoi on October 10.
    Roussel said other foreigners eager to see Vietnam had applied to join the
rally, but he had been unable to import more Harley Davidsons from the United
States because of a trade embargo Washington imposed on Hanoi in 1964.

Well, this isn't all that current, but I guess it's news from
Malaysia: (someone sent it to me.)

Straits Times (Singapore) Weekly Overseas Edition
August 29, 1992

GOVERNMENT WARNS OF ISA AGAINST THOSE WHO  INSTIGATE  MUSLIMS  TO
RENOUNCE ISLAM

Kuala Lumpur -- The Malaysian government would  not  hesitate  to
invoke  the  Internal  Security  Act [1] to detain individuals or
leaders of political parties if they instigated Muslim believers,
including  new  converts, to renounce Islam, the Malaysian Berita
Harian [2] reported on Tuesday.

Deputy Home Minister Datuk [3] Megat Junid Megat Ayob,  who  dis-
closed  this in Kuantan on Monday, said that the government would
first determine the true intentions of their actions.

"If they truly had bad intentions, that is, to instigate the pub-
lic,  including  new  Muslim  converts,  the government would not
hesitate to take harsh measures by detaining them under the ISA,"
the Malay-language newspaper quoted him as saying.

"The government would take  those  measures  because  instigating
Muslims and new Muslim converts into leaving Islam is a sensitive
matter and could spark conflict among the people."

He was commenting on a statement made by the Deputy  Minister  in
the  Prime  Minister's  Department, Datuk Dr. Abdul Hamid Othman,
that the Attorney-General was  considering  taking  legal  action
against  political  leaders who instigated Muslim converts to re-
nounce Islam and to return to their original religion.

Datuk Megat Junid said the government viewed the actions of these
leaders  seriously  and would keep a close watch on their actions
and movements.

Asked about a report that an association  in  Mentakab,  Pahahng,
had offered M$200,000 (US$80,000) to a Muslim convert to renounce
Islam, he said such actions could threaten racial harmony in  the
country.

Datuk Dr. Abdul Hamid said last week that anyone found to be  in-
stigating  Muslim  converts  to  renounce  Islam could be charged
under state laws, which forbade the propagation of any  religious
doctrine among Muslims.

He said that according to the law, it was an offence to persuade,
influence or instigate Muslims into renouncing their faith to em-
brace another religion.
