BigSix archive (fwd)

Hello LM_NET Colleagues,

   For those LM_NET members who are not involved in the new discussion
group formed to focus on the Big Six Skills for Information Problem
Solving, you may want to check out the archives, which are along side the
LM_NET archives, at AskERIC. (See Mike's message below.) I've been
lurking, and find the discussion quite stimulating and useful.

  BigSix is the name of the listserv group.

FINDING THE LM_NET ARCHIVES AND RELATED INFORMATION

             This is an update of previously posted
     instructions for locating the LM_NET Archives. (3-94)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

THE LM_NET ARCHIVES, ETC. ARE AVAILABLE BY GOPHER

   The LM_NET Archives and other interesting related information is
   now available at the AskERIC Gopher site.

   One quick way to find it is to use your telnet to go directly there,
   and then, by going through a series of menus, you will reach the
   LM_NET Archives.  (Of course, you can Gopher there as well, port 70.)

   For example: Telnet to the AskERIC Gopher:
   1. Telnet to> ericir.syr.edu
   2. At the login prompt, type: gopher
   3. At the TERM=(vt100) prompt, press: return key (or enter your terminal
      type), and then enter your name at the request.  You will then be
      given the following menu:
