MAP-EXTRA: POP QUIZ #2


     "The Golden Age of the Net was last year. The Golden Age
      of the Net was *ALWAYS* last year!!" -- Rev. Bob "Bob" Crispen


This is going to be fun! This quiz only has four questions, but the
questions require you to use the Internet to find the answers >:)

Again, do not send your answers to me. This exam is self-graded, and
the answers will be posted on FRIDAY (I want to give you plenty of
time to complete this exam).


     1. There are literally THOUSANDS of files available through FTP
        that have the .TXT file extension. Tell me the exact location
        of just one of these files (hint: see MAP17).










     2. Rick Gates has a monthly competition called "The Internet Hunt."
        The Hunt asks ten of the most contrived questions you have ever
        seen, and the Hunt's participants have to find the answers using
        nothing but the Internet (and they also have to show where they
        found the answers).

        Come to think of it, the Internet Hunt is a lot like this pop
        quiz ... hmmmm ....

        I have heard that Rick places the Hunt results on the CICNET Gopher
        server (gopher.cic.net) in Michigan (U.S.)

        I am interested in the Hunt results. In particular, I am interested
        in May, 1994 results.

        Who won the May 1994 Internet Hunt in the individual category? :)
        (Note: you may want to bookmark the main Internet Hunt menu --
        it is a WONDERFUL Internet training resource).










     3. I just tried a Veronica search and I got an "Empty Menu" error
        for a file that I *KNOW* exists. I should call my local Internet
        service provider and complain, right? Explain your answer :)










     4. I want to subscribe to a LISTSERV list. The list's address is
        NAVIGATE@UBVM

        Tell me what I need to do.









     BONUS: What *IS* Clifford Stoll's next book going to be about?
     (One of the questions above gives you enough information to find
     the answer).
