Reliability: If you depend on access at a scheduled time, such as during a university class meeting, photograph, copy or download this list of alternative URLs. (You may not be able to access this page from a bookmark should the bookmarked site be down.) You may use any of the servers listed below.
  1. http://firstglance.jmol.org   ← RECOMMENDED URL but in case it is out, keep a photo, copy, or download of this page!
    http://firstglance.jmol.org?mol=4dog
    (NOT https!). Easy to remember but occasionally down beyond our control. Created in 2005.
    This URL redirects to the recommended "primary" physical server, either #2 or #3 below, whichever is performing best at a given time.
    Thanks to Jmol.org, especially Miguel Howard.
