dark-shadows
    Contact: shadows-request@sunee.waterloo.ca (Bernie Roehl)

    Purpose: Dark Shadows was a daily soap opera that ran on ABC in
    the late sixties (ending in 1971).  It had a Gothic feel to it,
    and featured storylines involving witchcraft, vampires, werewolves
    and the supernatural.  It was (appropriately enough) "brought back
    from the dead" by NBC for a single season last year. It also
    spawned two feature films, a series of paperback novels, and lots
    more; the series is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year.
    There are a number of international fan clubs for the series, but
    so far there has been no newsgroup or (electronic) mailling list
    devoted to it.  Now there is.

    Littleton's New Economy Project works primarily  with small, 
    innovative companies trying to give them the sophisticated tools 
    they need to compete in the new global environment. Instead of 
    "hunting" for far away companies and offering incentives to try 
    to get them to locate in Littleton, we concentrate on adding value 
    to existing local companies, or "gardening". Services include using 
    commercial databases to provide a variety of strategic information.

    We are also actively interested in systems thinking, chaos, and 
    complexity as they apply to economics. We look forward to hearing 
    from those of you out there who use information, and who are 
    involved with businesses.
