        As we have been told NUMEROUS times, there is currently NO
SLIP/PPP access from the school.  There is a place in Hamilton(?) that
offers dialup SLIP connections for $35 a month if I remember correctly,

might get a mail gate going, if you had SLIP, or you could just download
your messages and upload replys.  Might want to move this to mu.unix...
