8.2 Where can I go on the Internet to learn more about "ER"?
There is a newsgroup devoted to discussion of the show,
<alt.tv.er>. There is also a newsgroup especially for British
"ER" fans, called <uk.media.tv.er>, and one for Italian fans,
<it.fan.er>.
On April 30, 1998, a new group was born: <alt.tv.er.creative>,
which was developed for the posting and discussion of "ER"-related
fanfiction (see 8.5 for more information on fanfic).
*And on October 5, 1998, Yet Another Bastid Chyld was added to the
"ER" Newsgroups Family: <alt.binaries.tv.er>, for the "posting of images,
sound and video files concerned with ER and the actors from ER" (from the
control message sent by Tom Coates).
If you can't find these newsgroups, bug the people in charge at
your site until they carry it; alternatively, you can also use DejaNews
<http://www.dejanews.com> to browse Usenet newsgroups.
You can also subscribe to an "ER" mailing list, for the purpose
of discussing the show. Send an e-mail message to:
listserv@psuvm.psu.edu
with the text:
subscribe ER-L [YourReal Name]
in the body of the message.
There are a number of World Wide Web sites devoted to "ER", and
more every day. Here's a partial list:

This page includes links to ER Fan pages, Fanfiction, and the Internet
Movie Database (source for all kinds of info on the cast and crew). If
you have a ER-based URL you'd like to be added to The Alt.TV.ER Links
page, please send it to me <mailto:erfaq@digiserve.com>
