Software for review

 Subject:  Computer Software for Review
      As the Software Review Editor for the ACS Journal of
 Chemical Information and Computer Science (JCICS) I often get
 software for review in the journal.  I now have some packages  in
 hand (see below) and I am looking for people who are willing to
 review the software.  In return for the review you get to keep
 the software.  The review should be completed in 1-2 months.  The
 length of the review is 4-10 double spaced typed pages.  Sample
 reviews can be found in most of the recent issues of JCICS.
      I have tried this approach with some software for review in
 the past few months and it is working reasonably well. (For those
 who haven't finished your reviews of software sent a few months
 ago, this last sentence does not apply to you!)  As a result, I
 am continuing this new method to find reviewers using this e-
 mail/user group system.  I hope it continues to work.  I reserve
 the right to abandon this if it is a problem, or inappropriate.
 I will not notify people if I have found a reviewer.  If you
 don't hear from me I have chosen someone else to review the
 particular package.
      As I get many, many, (too many) replies to this message,
 please do not respond after 28 April, as I am sure the software
 will be gone by then.
      I can be reached on INTERNET (SRHELLER { *at * } ASRR.ARSUSDA.GOV),
 or if necessary, by phone at 301-504-6055 or FAX at 301-946-2704.
      PLEASE BE SURE TO INCLUDE AN STREET ADDRESS, PHONE and FAX
 NUMBER!!!  (I send the software by Federal Express.)

 The packages I now have are:
 1. LabAdvisor - IBM PC Regulatory Information database from the
 ACS.  This is the complete LabADVISOR package with all modules.
 This helps you keep track of regulatory requirements for
 chemicals in the lab.
 2. Ami-Pro 3.0 for windows.
