  Thanks very much for the recognition, Ted.  We should clarify a couple of
things here, though.  First, we DO have a limited alternative to the premium
SLIP service now, which allows 1 hr/day connection time.  The price is less
than half of the premium service rate. However, at this time, we serve only
one host per SLIP account.  Drop a line to metronet@metronet.com for more
details.
