The first edition, which recently came out, does not yet include USENET addresses, despite there being about eight Boeing computers which are USENET nodes. This may be because there is as yet no connection between USENET and the other EMAIL networks in the company. Out in the vast wilds of personal computers, there are many computer buellitin boards which carry lists of other bulletin boards numbering in the hundreds of entries. Perhaps this qualifies as a network of sorts. Dani Eder/Boeing/Space Station Program
