I thought you might be pleased to learn that the 1992-1995 issues of the
_Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society_ are available online at
the Mathematics ArXiv. It includes interesting contributions such as the
controversial article by Jaffe and Quinn on "_Theoretical mathematics_:
Toward a Cultural Synthesis of Mathematics and Theoretical Physics", which
has been quoted here on [HM]. You can get a list of all 142 Bulletin
articles (1992-1995) searching the arXiv at:

It goes without saying that this kind gesture from professional societies
is most welcome. Congratulations! ... And I expect much more in the near
future. Many thanks.
