Shakespeare Electronic Conference, Vol. 3, No. 58. Wednesday, 11 Mar 1992. [Ed. Note: Michael Hart forwarded the following announcement to SHAKSPER. Hardy Cook is currently investigating the feasibility of mounting the complete corpus on the SHAKSPER Fileserver for retrieval by SHAKSPEReans, but those too curious or impatient to wait may want to pursue this offer directly. (We can neither endorse nor disparage the texts or their sources, sight unseen.) -- k.s.] Date: Tue, 10 Mar 1992 07:00:14 -0500 From: friedman@gnu.ai.mit.edu (Noah Friedman) To: Michael S.
