U.S. GOVERNMENT, STATE, AND CITY BULLETIN BOARDS
BY MAX LENT
At present, there is no one government agency responsible for
providing information about U.S. government, state, or local
electronic bulletin boards. The bulletin boards listed here were
found by calling known bulletin boards and obtaining numbers of
others listed there. Although these numbers have been called for
verification, they may change at any time. The bulletin boards
listed here may or may not be operating by the time you read
this. If a listed number does not answer or answers with a
recording, call the voice number (if one is listed) to verify
that the bulletin board is operational. If you know of U.S.
government, state, or local bulletin boards not listed here,
please share that information by sending e-mail to Max Lent (72145,125).
