The Dolphin FAQ

(the FAQ for the alt.animals.dolphins newsgroup)

This page provides access to the original FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions list) for the alt.animal.dolphins newsgroup. (If your Internet Service Provider does not carry the alt.animals.dolphins newsgroup, check the newsgroup archive on Deja.com). This FAQ is posted on the newsgroup every 30 days. The FAQ is also cross-posted to the general information newsgroups news.answers and alt.answers. If you have any questions for or about the FAQ, mail me.
