On September 4th, we opened a GOPHER server on the Internet to provide public access to our work on futures research. We hope that this server will eventually serve as a hub to other internal EPA servers. The total cost was well below $1000. Presently, 1-5 people are logging on every minute. We can be found in GOPHER space under Washington, DC. Our server also provides pointers to all other Federal Gopher Servers and to a wide variety of environmental gophers. Within the coming month, we will be putting up a mirror-image WAIS server and hook to the World Wide Web to provide eventual multimedia access using MOSAIC software. We will also open 7-8 interactive conference lines to allow asychronous collaboration and public dialogue in the following areas: Population, Critical technologies, Energy, Agriculture, Industry/Commerce, Environmental justice, Environmental Security, and Ecology/habitat issues. Please let people know. See you in cyberspace! Dave Rejeski Head, Future Studies Unit EPA 202-260-6523
