A CD couldn't be free just like the hardbound books are not free. And
I may be off-base since I caught very few of the discussions the past
two years at the Board Mtgs. referring to this subject _but_ I thought
even the on-line info would eventually be subscription. Paid? I would
pay for it.

I also have all the decade checklists and the '99 utilizes a bigger
font and much more readable typeface and is very user-friendly. So,
whether or not they are "a lot more introductions in the past ten
years" is a question for Keith Keppel. The '79 is bigger than the '89
checklist. I did a real fast comparison of the numbers of cvs. per
page and found that the '99 had an avg. of 18 - 20 per page and the
'89 had an avg. of 23 - 26 per page. A guesstimate would be more in
'99 probably around a few hundred which would be significant.
