TOURBUS en Espanol
------------------
Each TOURBUS posting will be translated in Spanish and made available
on the web at this address:
http://www.tourbus.com/espanol
Over time, the archived postings from 1996 and 1997 will be translated
and made available too. We're also planning a German language version
of TOURBUS real soon, and possibly other languages too.
You won't be able to subscribe to the translated versions, but the URL
Minder service at http://www.netmind.com/URL-minder will tell you when
a new posting is available. Visit the URL Minder and plug in the address
of the TOURBUS in Spanish page (http://www.tourbus.com/espanol) and
you're all set to keep up to date with TOURBUS en Espanol!
Vicarious Web Surfing
---------------------
If you don't have direct access to the Net, you can still explore the
wonders of the Web. Get my free guide "Accessing The Internet By E-Mail"
and learn how to access almost anything on the Net even if you have only
e-mail at your disposal.
Yes, you really can get web pages by e-mail. You can even grab files
from FTP sites, participate in Usenet, play games by e-mail and order
a virtual pizza. Version 6.5 of the "Accessing" guide is available in
over 30 languages. To get the latest edition (and a list of translations)
send e-mail to: "mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu" and enter this command in the
BODY of the note:
send usenet/news.answers/internet-services/access-via-email
If you have friends with just e-mail access, grab a copy and send it to
them - they will thank you! You can also find the "Accessing" guide
(and the Dr. Bob Quintuplets) via my home page at:

Geek Toy Giveaway
-----------------
To celebrate the announcement of the Spanish version of TOURBUS, I have
a freebie to give away. It's a "Spanish/English Translator and Deluxe
12-digit Calculator With Metric Converter" from Seiko Instruments.
I kid you not - this thing does exist, and it's right here on my desk,
waiting for one of you to give it a loving home. All you have to do
is convince three friends to sign up for TOURBUS, then send an e-mail
to BOBRANKIN@MHV.NET with a Subject line reading: CONTEST
That's it - just get your friends on the Bus and you could be a winner.
Oh, and make sure to put just the word CONTEST in the Subject line of
your message. My mailbot will respond with a confirmation.
