Now that our system has undergone some major over-hauls, I'd just like to tell the UseNet community about it for a second here... We have 3 numbers to call in to the system, with two lines (one of them is forwarded from Etobicoke to one of our Thornhill lines, for callers which would otherwise have to pay long-distance bills for a connection). The 2400 serves (416) 731-3468, and (416) 237-0308 [forwarded to the 731 number]. Our high speed modem (GVC v32/v42bis/MNP5) is running on (416) 731-9867. We're getting quite a large feed now, and are offering Unix accounts with no fee or anything of the sort. We try to get all the Unix software people are used to, but sometimes it's a bit tough without proper sources. So if you want a Unix account to read/send mail and news with, or do whatever, give us a call at any of the above telephone numbers and login as "apply", and we'll give you an account! Anyone seeking a UUCP connection can contact me and we'll talk about it. -- Marek Pawlowski - marekp@terranet.cts.com marekp@generic.uucp A genuine inquisitive computer enthusiast.
