As you may be aware, I have been promoting a National Clearinghouse for
Machine Readable Texts for some time and thus had great pleasure in
reading Bob Hollander's posting in HUMANIST today. I have already sent
him a message requesting a subscription and offering encouragement and
discussion. He and Marianne Gaunt are to be congratulated on this
posting and encouraged in the pursuit of Machine Readable Text concept
which has definitely reached its time. I will include the posting in
the materials going out this week to the informally named "Machine Readable
Text" listserv group. I am sure from the description in the posting that
a great mutual benefit will be derived from these groups and others.
