Does Northern Lights BBS support anonymous uucp connections?
Your sig suggests that it may.

Since getting a V32bis modem, I've discovered that I now prefer
(normally) to snarf files/pass mail via anonymous uucp or default
uucp connections.  Waffle sysops should give it some thought.

Don't have the delay in delivery of the files nor the pasting the
uuencoded pieces together then decoding.  And long distance is
surprizingly cheap at the 60% off rate for uucp due to the
automatated login/tranfer sequences.

I'm currently playing with all the 5 digit long distance service
company codes to try to find the cheapest rates for various
locations around the country.  Mostly using remote.halcyon's
anonymous connection as a base.  I'll list the findings here as I
get my monthly telco bills.
