The Eye Bank net is still on.  Whether they still serve the same purpose or
not I cannot say.

Very interesting, Phil.

This is a good example of the importance of the public service work that

Tom,

As I recall, the guy who had K9DOG was a net control many years ago, in the
sixties, that was called that Eye Bank Net.  They located, through doctors
and hospitals, Corneas to be shipped via air to needed patients.
