            This system is intended to contain  information  related  to
            technology  transfer activities in the mid-continent region.
            The states of Arkansas, Colorado,  Iowa,  Kansas,  Missouri,
            Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South
            Dakota, Texas,  Utah,  and  Wyoming  make  up  this  region.
            National and international topics are included as well.  The
            BBS provides an  automatic  pass-through  service  to  other
            resources. Some that are now supported are the Texas Innova-
            tion Network (TINS), NASA Spacelink BBS, the NSF STIS, and a
            local  Wide Area Information Server (WAIS) interface. Others
            will be added in the future.

            The mission of this technology transfer center is  to  serve
            the  national interest by providing scientific, engineering,
            business, information,  and  educational  services  for  the
            mid-continent  region.   This will enable public and private
            enterprises to acquire and apply technologies  developed  by
            NASA,  federal laboratories, and other sources, thus expand-
            ing the use of technology and improving competitiveness.
