Zoo News Digest 14 Jul 1998 (Zoo News 6)

Dear Colleague,

Sorry it is a couple of weeks since the last mailing but I have been
snowed under with other projects. The trouble with news is that it becomes
stale so fast...but at least with the sites below you can just choose to
go to what interests you. Once again many thanks for your kind comments
and clips to include. Please remember to include the site address with any
news.


A few new faces appearing on ZooChat this week.
