They count as "US America" and "English" in this report. SUBSCRIBERS BY INSTITUTION E-mail "institutions" are defined by one or two parts of an e-mail address before the final part or "country", so some institutions may be missed because of their addressing conventions and some colleagues may be missed because they choose to subscribe from another address. University of Amsterdam (.uva.nl) is our longtime leader. Currently we have four or more subscribers at handful of e-mail institutions, and three subscribers at many more. 5 U Amsterdam U Notre Dame Duke U Harvard U (two visitors, one from Amsterdam) 4 U Paris 1 Bowling Green State U U Miami, Ohio (muohio.edu, where Eh.Net lives) TECHNICAL NOTES Each person is counted once, at current residence for those with subscriptions in two different countries. "US America" means subscription from one of the e-mail codes associated with the USA; .org .com .net .us .edu .gov are represented here. The first three, at least, may include users outside the USA. "English" means subscription from any English-speaking country including US America as defined here. ---- Paul Wendt, Watertown MA HES e-subscriptions manager and asst.editor ================ FOOTER TO HES POSTING================
