In answer to Judy Schneider's query, I was at CIL and heard
the second program on OCLC and the LAN. According to my program
book, the speaker would have been Marshall Breeding from
Vanderbilt University. Apparently I missed a previous talk on
the same subject by Corlen Ruschoff from Georgetown University.
The talk made me want to know more, because it seemed almost
too good to be true - a much higher number of PC's with access to
OCLC, and running on fewer ports.
