Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in

You have reached the RSI Network Newsletter, created and
edited by Caroline Rose with help from Craig O'Donnell.
The RSI Network Newsletter uses a moderated list, and the
list is for distribution only. You cannot post messages.
The Newsletter is for people who suffer from workstation,
mouse, or keyboard-related injuries to the shoulders, neck,
arms, wrists, etc. It comes out every 2 months, direct to your
email address.
By mailing to the automatic "majordomo" program which
is running on The World, you can add or drop yourself
from the RSI Network Newsletter list.
Please contact Craig if you would like to submit something

How to Get RSI Network Newsletter Back Issues
---------------------------------------------
Many subscribers wonder where back issues are kept. Issues are only
available in electronic form. Each Newsletter includes a listing
of current sources. Here are Internet-accessible sites.
RSI-East Archives:
This is a part of the St. John's University Electronic Disability
Resource Center.
Type "gopher sjuvm.stjohns.edu" (without the quotes) at your
unix prompt and browse around.
The World:
Log onto by ftp or gopher. Look in directory:
/pub/rsi.
Both Macintosh and PC-formatted text (ASCII) are available.
Macintosh StuffIt and PC .ZIP files are available.
ZiffNet
For Mac users:
Back issues are gathered in one archive, RSINET.SEA, in the
"Reference" library (GO ZMC:DOWNTECH). The latest Newsletter is
in the same library (for example, Issue 10 is "RSI10.SIT"). Use
keyword "RSI" to locate archives and single issues.
To index, browse, and copy from collected setext documents, use
Easy View, in the "Applications" library (GO ZMC:DOWNTECH) under
filename EASYVW.SEA.
For DOS and Windows users:
Issues 1-10 have been gathered in one summary, RSI.ZIP,
(GO PBSHOM, Library 7). Later Newsletters (ASCII) are in the
same library (for example, Issue 11 is "RSI11.TXT"). Use
keyword "RSI" to locate archives and single issues.
Online Services and BBSes
Back issues are also available to America On Line, GEnie, AppleLink,
eWorld, and Delphi subscribers. The Newsletter is also on Planet
BMUG BBS in Berkeley, BMUG Boston BBS, and other places we don't
know much about.
