    box scores, team status, and transaction reports.

    sharks-chat: San Jose Sharks collectibles and merchandise information.
    Please don't try to buy or sell stuff on the list, though. It's not a
    classified ad or a swap meet.  Road Trips and group get-togethers. A
    way for out-of-towners to find out what's happening when they visit,
    and for the locals to meet their like-minded on-line fans.  Anything
    else of interest about the Sharks.

    sharks-tickets: Tickets for sale (and wanted). Scalping is not allowed,
    however.

    hockey-chat: Anything hockey-related, unless the list mom's say to stop.
    (we're serious about the r.s.h without the flames and idiots bit.  You
    can chat about anything, but abuse, flames, excessive whining and
    twit-headedness won't be tolerated. If we WANT a cess-pool like r.s.h,
    we'd go there. This is for people who want something like that, but also
    want people who can say "shut up" and not be laughed at.).

    roller-hockey-intl: same as hockey-chat, but specifically aimed at RHI.

    To subscribe, send it a message "subscribe <list> <your name>"
    To unsubscribe, use "unsubscribe <list>"

    of your message)

    Archives: The sharks mailing list is stored in the listproc server. You
    can get the index with the listproc command "INDEX <listname>". All
    messages sent to the list are stored in the archive, plus other useful
    data. Messages sent prior to our conversion to listproc are in the
    old.messages sub-archive, while messages since are in the digests
    sub-archive. Please see the quick-start for information on how to access
    files.

    For information on other features, use "help". A quick-start guide
    to using listproc is appended to this message. Please read it for

siblings
    Contact: [e-mail]

    Purpose: Siblings is a mailing list for fans of Canadian
    singer/songwriter Jane Siberry.  Like Jane herself, many listmembers
    have a wry sense of humor, and love to tease, but the atmosphere is
    generally relaxed and friendly.  The list is small as yet (about 100
    members) but Jane's recent contributions to soundtracks -- "Calling
    All Angels" (a duet with k.d. lang) for _Until the End of the World_,
    "It Can't Rain All the Time" for _The Crow_ -- have attracted a fair
    amount of attention.

    The list is unmoderated, and you will be automatically subscribed
    if you send a message to the contact address with just the words
    "subscribe siblings".
    No subject line is needed, and please don't include your name or
    e-mail address; it's not necessary.

siege
    Contact: [e-mail]

    Purpose: The siege mailing list is intended for the dicussion of
    pre-black powder methods of attack and defence of fortified
    positions.  While the discussion of the downfall of the great
    siege engines caused by the advent of portable, and powerful
    cannons is important, I would like this to be somewhat minimized.

    Topics appropriate for discussion include physics, mechanics,
    materials, construction, transportation, terminology, historic
    evidence of use, historical reconstruction, common myths and
    misconceptions and so on.

    To subscribe, send mail to [e-mail] and
    include a single line saying: subscribe siege <your name here>.

Sierra Club
    Contact:  [e-mail] (Eddie Rowe)

    Purpose: SII [Serbian Information Initiative] is unmoderated
    network for distribution of news and discussions about the current
    events in ex-Yu, centered around those involving or affecting
    Serbs. SII also originates public actions related to these events,
    both at home and abroad, and regularly maintains private e-mail
    connection between Internet and nodes in Serbia and Montenegro.
    Both English and Serbo-Croatian language are used. Civility in
    discussions is enforced.

SKEPTIC
    Contact: [e-mail]

    Purpose: SKEPTIC is a mailing list devoted to critical discussion of
    extraordinary claims.  Among the paranormal topics that are commonly
    examined are parapsychology and psychic claims, creationism, cult
    archaeology, UFO's, cryptozoology, reincarnation/survival, quackery,
    the occult and divination; but the discussion is not limited to any
    predetermined set of magical beliefs or alleged pseudosciences.

    In connection with paranormal claims, issues involving science
    and philosophy in general are often raised.  There is no policy of
    excluding any topic from consideration.  While the common point of
    view expressed is skepticism about claims that go against current
    scientific pictures, critical approaches to science itself are also
    encouraged.

    To subscribe send a mail message to
    [e-mail] with the one-line message:
       SUBSCRIBE SKEPTIC your-full-name

SkillsBank
    Contact: sun!kass!richard  (Richard Karasik)

    Purpose: I'd like to get people together on a mailing list who are
    willing to share their skills with others - not just the computist
    ones, althogh that's handy to know, but some of the oddball ones
    that we all seem to have aquired.

    Ground rules: the list is not going to be publicly available but
    requests to the list for specific skills will be passed on to the
    people that have them, and they can decide about the level of
    participation they want to have.  The only public piece that will
    be mailed around is the new skills that have been added, and the
    new requests for assistance.

    I am open to any other suggestions for how to make this work.

Software Agents Mailing List
    Contact: [e-mail]

    Purpose: This mailing list is devoted to the issues of Software Agents.
    The term Agent is ill-defined and because of this the scope of this
    mailing list will also be somewhat ill-defined.  However, it should be
    restricted to software agents as opposed to hardware (robots) and human
    agents.  (However, the interface from software agents to other agents
    is fair game.)

    To join the mailing list send a message to [e-mail]
    with "subscribe agents <FirstName> <LastName>" in the body of the
    of the message.  Replace <FirstName> & <LastName> with your actual
    first and last name.

SOMWPS
    Contact: [e-mail]

    Purpose: SOMWPS is a mailing list for people interested in the
    technical aspects of IBM's System Object Model and associated
    object technologies like CORBA and the OS/2 WorkPlace Shell.  It
    is primarily aimed at developers, but it may be interesting for
    technically advanced users as well.

    IBM's System Object Model is a language neutral framework for object
    oriented programming.  The first implementation is part of IBM's
    OS/2 operating system.  SOM is compliant with the Object Management
    Group's (OMG) Common Object Request Broker Architecture.  There are
    also extensions to SOM for distributed object oriented design, DSOM.

    The OS/2 WorkPlace Shell is the most famous application of SOM. As
    such, we will be discusing its technical underpinnings, as well as
    discussing WPS programming techniques.

    For the most part, if it is related to SOM, we are interested in
    discussing it.
