I'm also in need of a _large_ word list, but have no  access  to  the  ARPA
net.  I know there's a project in work to put the Oxford English Dictionary
into machine readable form.  Does anyone know if the people working  on  it
have  a  net  address?  I only need the word list, not all the definitions,
etc.  A magtape would probably be the best way to transport it.

Replies to me will be summarized.
