I tried to ftp them , but I failed.
Tried Result
================ ============================================
ftp uunet.uu.edu Refused to connect!
ftp j.cc.purdue.edu In which directory ??
ftp haunama.staford.edu No such a node!
ftp haunama.stanford.edu No such a node!
=============== ============================================
So I think maybe something wrong with the post. Maybe the auther forget
to check the spelling of his article ? :-)
Also , can I use any of these checkers in VAX/VMS ?
