Dear Vicki,
I can't use the link you provided to get to the directory. I get the
following message (using Firefox 1.5.0 on a Windows XP computer):
The connection has timed out
The server at directory.nih.gov is taking too long to respond.
* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again
in a few
moments.
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy,
make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
When I go from the NIH home page and click on Telephone and Service
Directory (bottom of the page), I get to <http://teledirectory.nih.gov/>,
which seems to have the same functionality as what you're looking for.
Maybe the address has changed?
