I suspect that these items are people looking for Freshman room-
mates that they haven't seen in ten years. If you have some idea
where the person is, you are usually better off calling the
organization. For example, if you call any Bell Labs location and
request John Doe's number they can give it to you even if he works
at a different location. If you must try the net, use newsgroup
soc.net-people *NOT* misc.misc or misc.wanted. Also, you can try
the "whois" command (see item #3). There is a periodic posting
in the news.newusers.questions and news.answers newsgroups that
gives information on other ways to locate people.
