Nearly every subject indexed, with a propagation delay of about a minute
to share ideas with the brightest minds of other universities. What
better forum can bring together the latest trends and research? Mailing
lists and google searches are great, but I feel nothing matched the

A university without usenet or a library is a university without power.
I'd hate to be in the dark.
