Hello,
I have been reading the list for a little while, but have never posted
anything.  I have always enjoyed the obscure references.  I found an odd
"ferret" today while teaching a Netscape class - take a look at this address
for the census bureau.  They have a page with a Federal Electronic Research
and Review Extraction Tool (FERRET).  Sorry if this is a repeat!
