There are numerous means of obtaining information about
the NIST.

The easiest of course is to explore the NIST Gopher:

	gopher gopher-server.nist.gov

There's also a mail_list.  Send a note requesting a subscription
and include the usual information, full name, internet address,
what you do (student, reseacher, prof, business, journalist, etc):

	<media@micf.nist.gov>

If you have additional information to share about this service,
or first-hand experience with any of the programs of the NIST
which you'd like to share with the e-club, please send me
a note, and include something about yourself,
