OK, George. Thank you. That is good news. I happen to feel rather
strongly that people should be finding ways to use the web, and I for
one will be proud and happy to see the STC making a presence up there.

I thought I had limited the "outrageous" tag to the Conference
Proceedings purchased from the STC office after a conference. My
apologies if it didn't come across that way. This fee is $60 for
members and $90 for non-members. I didn't say it is unjustified, in
the world of the printing press technology. It does, however, seem to
me that there would be a much cheaper way to get that information out
to members and non-members alike in the world of the web technology.
