    Greetings,

    Every now and then something sparks my interest here...  I'm real busy
    these days and I don't have as much free time as I used to have. 
    However, running UUCP on my Rainbow sounds like a wonderful idea.
    Getting the software and get it running sounds fairly straightforward.
    I'll even splurge the $35.00.

    What I want to know is:

        "Where is there a 'public access' Unix system running UUCP that
        could connect to and not have to pay an arm and leg other than
        the long distance call?  How do I go about linking up to a network
        node as a "leaf node" and receiving mail, sending files, etc."

    Thanks in advance, as always...

   Enjoy,
   alan
