   I just ran across an intriguing reference in a dissertation from U. Sheffield
   to a grammar by D. Durie, _Greek Grammar: A Concise Grammar of NT Greek_.
   Canberra, Austrailia, privately printed, 1981. I've hunted through the
   catalogs from nearly a dozen universities and can't locate a copy. Is anyone
   familiar with it or have suggestions as to where I might search? How about an
   Austrailian contact/university online adress there maybe?

I gophered around and found some interesting references in the
Australian National University catalog, which is located in Canberra,
ACT, Australia.  You can get there by 

	TELNET LIBRARY.ANU.EDU.AU (IP address:  150.203.84.3)

or via gopher.  The Gopher entry provides the EMail contact address

	<helpdesk@library.anu.edu.au>

Here are the two interesting entries:
