The bucky news service has two new features, BIBLIO and UPDATE.

Welcome to bucky, a weekly list of the latest titles on C-60 and 
related fullerenes, fullerites, and molecular/solid state derivatives.
The list is distributed to subscribers by electronic mail. 
You may subscribe, unsubscribe, and contribute or update entries to the list. 
Each week the latest 50 titles, or the last week's title list 
(whichever is larger) is electronically mailed to subscribers.
Titles are listed in reverse order of submission, with date appended.
You may also request Rick Smalley's annotated bibliography which is 
significantly larger (attribution back to 1500 BC).


All electronic mail to the bucky service should be sent to 
	      
******	   bucky@sol1.lrsm.upenn.edu        *****************

which is located on Internet in the United States.

There are six services available, and you must send a separate 
e-mail message for each, using capital letters to specify the service
on the first line of the message (not on the "Subject" line 
of the message):


1.) Presumably you have received this introduction by sending electronic
    mail to the above address with the text of the one-line 
    message as follows (note the use of capitals):

INTRO



2.) To subscribe to the weekly list (and receive an immediate copy), send mail
    to the above address with the text of the one-line message as follows:

SUBSCRIBE



    You may also send the SUBSCRIBE message whenever you want to get
    a quick update of the title list. This will not cause you to receive
    multiple copies of the weekly mailing.

3.) To unsubscribe to the weekly list, send mail to the above address 
    with the text of the one-line message as follows:

UNSUBSCRIBE



4.) To submit an entry (title, author and institution, contact person for 
    requesting more info or a hard copy), send mail to the above address 
    using the word "SUBMISSION" alone on the first line, followed by up
    to 10 lines.  The most useful contact address for readers will be an 
    Internet or BITNET e-mail address, to which they can apply for copies.
    Your title will be automatically be given a submission number to which
    you may refer if you wish to update it.
    Below is a sample. Any submission with more than ten lines will 
    be truncated by the system, but see the note below on spurious information.

SUBMISSION
Excitation of the the C-60 Breather Mode
John Gaines and Friends, Wherever National Laboratory
gaines@clone.wnl.gov



5.) To receive a current bucky bibliography (it's about 2600 lines), send mail
    to the above address with the text of the one-line message as follows:


BIBLIO



6.) To update or change one of your previous submissions which has been 
    accepted by a journal or has changed in some way, send mail
    to the above address with the text of the updated entry similar to the
    example below. The update will not occur immediately, and unlike the rest
    of the bucky service, you can update multiple titles in one mail message.
    N.B. You must include the original submission number (e.g. @#47).
    Example:


UPDATE
@#47
Excitation of the the C-60 Breather Mode
John Gaines and Friends, Wherever National Laboratory
Accepted by and will appear in Phys. Rev. B., July, 1991

****************************************************************************

Your communications to this service should be sent to the above
address. Your communications from the service will come from a different
address.

Note that bucky is not a Bulletin Board; the hope (perhaps naive) is
that bucky's "keepers" will not have to spend inordinate amounts of
time filtering spurious information.  Also please remember that you will 
be sending mail to a PROGRAM, not a person, and the program will not
understand much except as formatted above.  It is also our expectation
that subscribers will be forthcoming with their own new titles, and not
just use bucky to get a jump on the competition.

Once a mailing list is established, bucky will be available to rapidly
disseminate other information, by request of any subscriber but at the
discretion of the "keepers".

Problems or questions should be addressed to mark@sol1.lrsm.upenn.edu   .
