A few weeks ago there was a post which referred to an IH listserver.
I don't recall seeing a public post as to where or how to subscribe
to an IH list server.
Below is a FAQ from
http://www.dcn.davis.ca.us/~ebartosh/CAC/ih-list.htm which tells how
to subscribe to the AIHA General Interest Industrial Hygiene ListServ
(IH-list).
