I've been involved in a project producing public domain programs
for the PC about different environmental topics.  We've just
loaded the software on to a Gopher where people can FTP the files.
If you have any questions, please respond to me at the address below.
 
                                *** ANNOUNCEMENT ***
 
          The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 5 and Purdue
          University have created 28 interactive environmental software
          programs for PCs which are now accessible on the Great Lakes
          National Program Office (GLNPO) gopher.  These public domain
          programs contain numerous color graphics; many are hypertext
          based and are accessible to a wide variety of audiences.
          -----------------------------------------------------------
          Point your gopher server to glnpogis2.r05.epa.gov and look under
          Education.  The gopher can also be located via the Great Lakes
          Information Network (GLIN) gopher at gopher.great-lakes.net.
