5.1.1 The [extinct] backrubs exchange
The new backrubs exchange programme was a list of people from around the globe willing to exchange backrubs. The list used to be posted to the alt.backrubs newsgroup on the first of every month. In January 1996, a WWW version of the list was created (its address is below). There was once another backrubs exchange programme but it disappeared without a trace long ago. Paul Selkirk was the third person to maintain the new list.
There are two files in the archive (see question 5.1.2) about the backrubs exchange programme: the announcement, `exchange.prog', and the most current update, `exchange.update'.
The archive also contains information about other exchanges held in Chicago (`exchange.chicago') and Seattle (`exchange.seattle').
In late 1998 Paul stopped maintaining the list because there was so little interest in it. If anyone wants to start up the list again they should contact Paul. Copies of all of the files and web stuff are available if you want to start it up again.
