HES SUBSCRIBER REPORT, Dec'97                                   Paul Wendt 
-----------------------------                                    14 Dec 97 
1 Suppl: Geographic Distribution 
 
 
HES email list has 450 subscribers on 1 Dec 97.  (That counts persons, not 
addresses, and omits 8 students leftover from one Spring'97 course.) 
 
Eight quarterly snapshots cover the 21 months since HES joined eh.net, 
based at Miami University, Ohio USA.  The current snapshot appears in the 
first column of numbers at left, with quarterlies beginning March 1996 at 
right; thus the first two columns show our 21-month growth at eh.net.

========================== 
SUBSCRIBERS BY INSTITUTION  
========================== 
 
"Institution" is generally indicated by one or two components of an email 
address preceding the last component or "country".  Some institutions may 
be overlooked here, because of their addressing conventions or because 
some affiliated persons subscribe from an outside address.   
  
HES has four or more subscribers at a handful of institutions: 
 
    6   U Amsterdam 
    5   Duke U  
    4   U Notre Dame  
    4   U Paris 1  
    4   Go"teborg U 
    4   U Quebec a Montreal 
    4   U California at Berkeley 
 
 
=============== 
TECHNICAL NOTES  
=============== 
 
 -  Each person is counted once, at current residence (or so I guess) for 
    those with subscriptions from two different countries.  
  
 -  "US America" counts all persons with addresses ending {.org .com .net 
    .edu .us .gov .mil} EXCEPT where I know that person is based 
    elsewhere, which depends on my memory, efforts, and good fortune.

    including "USAmerica" as defined here; also including Ireland and 
    South Africa, not Israel or India.
