Indeed we do frown upon adding new connections.  Just because we frown doesn't
mean it won't happen.

If I recall your request correctly, there was absolutely nothing identifying
you as an EDUCATIONAL site.  My understanding of your request was that you
wanted to connect your home machine.  I also don't recall you suggesting that
there might be cost recovery available to the department for the resources you
would use.  It certainly sounded like a freebie to me.  If this has changed,
perhaps we should speak again.

UNBC is only a temporary connection.  Once they have a reliable BCNet
connection in place, the UUCP connection will be discontinued.
