SUPERGUY
Superguy is a mailing list devoted to interactive adventure fiction,
of both humorous and serious types. It is an open, unmonitored list,
which allows anyone to post anything they wish. However, as our
stated purpose is entertaining fiction, posts not connected with
that fiction or discussing the group itself are frowned on. There
are several different universes, including the Superguy universe,
a superheroic satire. Before posting, one should get a copy of their FAQ. To
subcribe, send the message: "SUBSCRIBE SUPERGUY"
mailto:listserv@ucf1vm.cc.ucf.edu

TRADE SERVICE
Dominique Dumont has set up a comics trade service via computer. The idea
is that buyers and sellers both send buy and sell lists of comics to
a particular machine. A program compares what's for sale with what's wanted
and will notify potential buyers when a match is found.

To get information about this service,
mailto:domi@ss7serv.grenoble.hp.com
with the Subject: comic_market and the body of the message consisting of
:HELP: (include the :s and be sure the Subject: is only comic_market and
nothing else). The details of using the service are a bit long to be
included here.

If there are any problems, Dumont can be contacted at
