Interesting find. Does anyone know if the Federal Government, or private
sources, have put the other US Censuses on CD Rom format? This would be
such a saving in money and equipment (cf. microfilm and readers). I have
seen references to specific census tracks for specific years that seem
to be on CD Rom and had just started to get curious about this issue
when Mike Polk's message came by. Perhaps only segments of some census
tracks are on CD Rom (?). What about state censuses?
Can anyone help us on this question
