According to jim@lsuc.on.ca (Jim Mercer):
>USENET (uucpNET) is made up of a group of uucp hosts.

Sorry, but that's incorrect.  To quote from "What Is Usenet?"...

 7. Usenet is not the Internet.

    The Internet is a wide-ranging network, parts of which are
    subsidized by various governments.  The Internet carries many
    kinds of traffic; Usenet is only one of them.  And the Internet is
    only one of the various networks carrying Usenet traffic.

 8. Usenet is not a UUCP network.

    UUCP is a protocol (some might say "protocol suite," but that's a
    technical point) for sending data over point-to-point connections,
    typically using dialup modems.  Usenet is only one of the various
    kinds of traffic carried via UUCP, and UUCP is only one of the
    various transports carrying Usenet traffic.

 9. Usenet is not a UNIX network, nor even an ASCII network.

    Don't assume that everyone is using "rn" on a UNIX machine.  There
    are Vaxen running VMS, IBM mainframes, Amigas, and MS-DOS PCs
    reading and posting to Usenet.  And, yes, some of them use
    (shudder) EBCDIC.  Ignore them if you like, but they're out there.

If you want to be understood, get your terminology straight.
