I'll start with what I know, I'm connected to a host on the DDN MILNET which
is a part of the ARPANET.  In reading the digests I come across USENET, BITNET,
CSNet, UUCP, BIX, etc.  I have no idea what all these nets are, who controls
them, how I can connect to them, what they are.  There are many references to
UH-INFO at UHUPVM1 ATARINET.  Is this another net? Is it on one of the nets
mentioned above?  Can I get to it from ARPANET?

I've noticed at least a dozen questions from other newcomers subsumed in the
questions above but have not yet seen any answers.  Will someone plese send
me a message telling me how some(all) the pieces fit together and what paths
exist from hither to yon.

Thanks for any help, I'm lost.
