   There are some quite interesting and useful
   things there. For example the World Fact Book (or similar name) which has
   reasonably up to date information (c. 1991) which I have previously found
   difficult to track down from home.

Available via anonymous FTP from ftphost.vuw.ac.nz (kauri.vuw.ac.nz for
the CNAME-challenged) as both
	/pub/etext/Literature/Gutenberg/etext91/world.txt.Z
and	/pub/etext/Literature/Gutenberg/etext92/world91b.zip

Archie finds several copies by searching for
	^cia
and finds our copy by searching for
	^world

(the "^"s are essentual, otherwise archie will give thousands of
matches for things like "special.c").
