Regarding Charles Ess's search for top-level athletic stress programs:
I assume the "stress" is physical and not psychological.
Brandeis University has one of the strongest all-division
nationally-ranked running programs. If I remember correctly, it was
very similar to that of Keene State University in either Maine or New
Hampshire. Many of the athletes went to Colorado to study in the sports
medicine/training programs at the universit(y/ies) there. The physical
location also benefits from the US Olympic training center. I do not
remember the names of the programs, but one cannot go wrong looking
there.
Other's which might merit some contact are Tufts University Med School,
Harvard U. Med School, and the Massachusetts General Hospital Sports
Medicine program. All there are in the Boston area.

Bob O'Hara asks about biography formats.
The Humanist bios winging their way to the file server even as I type
might provide a nice starting point. There is a formal SGML DTD for
them, and they provide a variety of demographic information as well as
discursive text. Further tagging detail might be desired for a larger
project, for which the TEI guidelines probably provide sufficient
detail. On the other hand, the genealogical software I've dealt with
tends to have support only for pure demographic events (birth, death,
marriage, emigration, etc.), and so would need to be extended (if such
is possible in a given case) for anything discursive.

E-voltaire e-candide.
I would advise you to contact either the ARTFL in Chicago or Nancy's
TLF. They have there more than 30 e-texts written by Voltaire.
Chicago's contact man is Mark Olsen: mark@gide.uchicago.edu
Nancy's contact address is: Service des prestations de l'Inalf
44, avenue de la Liberation
C.O. 3310 54014 Nancy Cedex
FRANCE.
The Inalf has developped a CD-ROM version of part of the 3000 book large
database of the TLF. It can be bought at the same address.

E-address at Liege
Professor Otte works in the same building as the CIPL (LASLA) and
probably share at least part of the same e-address. I would advise you
to retry the address you mentioned in your message but without the "."
in it. Otherwise, try to send a message at CIPL which is one floor
above Otte's department. Our man in Liege is Christian Delcourt:
u017101@bliulg11.bitnet

Romanicist with money to spend...
Why not spend part of your money on the newly-produced hypercard-based
system developped by Etienne Brunet. It is called HYPERBASE. You can feed
it with your own text files and it prepares them to enable the user to
obtain a certain amount of information: stylostatistical information,
frequency lists, concordances and even comparison with statistical data
from the TLF... and much more...
