EDITOR's NOTE. See below.----------
From: naiman@socrates.Berkeley.EDUI'm trying to put the finishing touches on an article on Pnin and
realize I don't know how to refer to Nabokv-L. What is it? "An
electronic server"? I'm also wondering if you recall any discussions on
how to cite Nabokv-L (and other beasts in its species).
thanks,
Eric

December 1997.
