    discussable are curricula, graduate programs, and jobs in the field.

    HOW TO USE THE LIST

    Please follow these examples exactly, so that my software works.

    To SUBSCRIBE, send mail like this:

        To: [e-mail]
    Subject: cogneuro: subscribe

    To UNSUBSCRIBE, send mail like this:

     To: [e-mail]
    Subject: cogneuro: unsubscribe

    You don't need to put anything in the body of the message.  There
    will be no automatic confirmation, but you might get a note from me.

    To CHANGE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS (also very polite to do if you know
    that your MACHINE WILL GO DOWN for a while, or in case you LEAVE
    THE NET) simply unsubscribe from your old address and resubscribe
    from your new address.  This prevents error messages and prevents
    me from having to verify your address manually.

    To POST (send a message to everybody on the list), send mail to
    [e-mail], or followup to an existing message.

    e.g.
    To: [e-mail]
    Subject: corpus callsosum

    To ask a METAQUESTION, send it to [e-mail].
    nasa.gov.  Suggestions for improving this announcement or the
    list are welcome.

    GUIDELINES

    The language of the list is English.

    The list is meant to be low in volume and high in s/n ratio.

    Controversy and speculation are welcome, as are lack of
    controversy and rigor.  Since the emphasis is scientific and
    academic, participants are expected to be extremely tolerant of
    other participants' opinions and choice of words.  Since cogneuro
    is such a huge field, submission shsouldn't be too off-topic or
    otherwise not essentially scientific or academic.

    The list is initally open to anybody who is interested.  Although
    I don't expect ever to need to exercise it, I reserve the right
    to remove anybody from the list if there are problems.  I want to
    keep a spirit of free exchange of cognitive neuroscience.

    Other than this, the list is moderated and informal.

    organizations, in most Western European countries.

    more; the series is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year.

    so far there has been no newsgroup or (electronic) mailling list
    devoted to it.  Now there is.
