as someone who was once close to the action, i can report that the
btl-mh site really did work for about a week.  then it was learned
that csnet would want big bags of money annually for the service
(which, if i may aside editorially, sucks), so interest quickly waned.
(it is **not** true that coincident to this revelation a conspiracy was
hatched within btl to destroy csnet by providing better services to
universities for free through frequent, costly, and unaccounted uucp
polls by major btl sites.) the people originally involved (who shall
remain nameless to protect their loss of innocence), have now lost all
interest.  chalk one up to mean and lean.
