HAS ONE! From dcn00046@chip.ucdavis.edu Sat Feb 12 19:47:34 1994 Subject: Legislature "unknown gopher" I found the following in the "unknown name" section of the gopher list on peg.cwis.uci.edu: gopher.sen.ca.gov Although experimental, it's the gopher site for the California Senate. Another place where ftp is *not* required is through the Colorado SuperNet "search specific ftp site" entry on their FTP line on the second menu. Just key in "leginfo.ca.gov" and "California Gov Online" stuff is retrievable through another gopher. -R. Alexander [I've not checked the sen.ca.gov nor the Colorado SuperNet site.
