Hmm.. I wonder how many sites would depart, only staying bitnet members
because it's cheaper to pay the membership fee than to invest the manpower
in figuring out how to escape?  Figure that if (for example) the membership
fee is $1000/year, if it takes more than a man-week of time to leave, it's
cheaper to just STAY...  But if we reduce it to a man-day......
