Useful Training pages on the Web

You are absolutely correct and I better post this to all four listservs to
be on the safe side.  I once listed a URL from a research group at UCLA on
a resource page and got back quite a nasty note from them for using their
URL as a link without asking.  I try to  notify links now and  do a Web
Credits section.  Graphics should, as you say, be included.  We aim for
generic clip art whenever possible.

Thanks for keeping us on the  straight and narrow!
