I've added a new feature to the ASA site that many of you may find useful.
I've not created links to it yet, so it's only accessible direct with this
URL.

It is based on Paul Arveson's database of the Journal ASA/PSCF (v. 1-46).
Paul labeled each article according to its discipline(s) and keywords. He
then created a list of those disciplines so users would know for what areas
a database search would find articles. I've taken Paul's discipline list,
created a HTML table for it, and linked each term automatically to the
on-line database search engine available from the PSCF page.

Now, if you click on one of the terms in the discipline list, an on-the-fly
search of the database will be performed and you will be returned a list of
all articles that include that term either in its title, keyword list, or
discipline list.

The URL is

http://mcgraytx.calvin.edu/ASA/disciplines.html

Try it out and let me know what you think. As always on the web, these
documents are always under construction, so if you have suggestions, please
let me know about them. Feel free to communicate this page to colleagues
who might find it useful.

I plan to create a similar page for Paul's keyword list at some point.
