[descriptions of physhare, phys-l, tap-l, chemed-l, Spacelink, SpaceMet,
Newton deleted for brevity]

Thanks, Dave!

...maybe it is a trivial task to assemble an annotated bibliography on such
resources via email (if you will permit me the bandwidth).  I would LOVE to
edit together and repost/redistribute such an annotated bibliography if others
are willing to provide material for it.

***HERE IS THE PUNCHLINE***

If YOU have or know of a Physics education related resource available via
the internet or bitnet (such as textfiles, databases, BBS, listserv, news-
groups, telnet sites etc), please send its name, complete access/joining info
and a short (1-3 line) description to me.  (see examples appended)

I will assemble a 2 or 3 page catalogue and repost it.  After it has
settled somewhat, I will determine some method of achiving it so it is
accessible to all Bitnet and Internet users, and I will update it periodic-
ally with new information as it is made available to me.   I can cope with
being an archivist in the interest of remaining current on the topic of
physics education/the internet.
