A friend of mine lives in Hamilton and would like to know if there are any sites within his local calling area that would allow him to take a feed of mail and news. He plans to use an IBM PC, possibly with uupc. If there are any sites that would offer him a feed, he can be reached at becker!comspec!doug. He would also be satisfied with an interactive account on any public access system which participates in Usenet and uucp mail.

We are willing to supply a news feed into a cluster of single user machines as long as one machine acts as a gateway for others. -- Dan Trottier dan@maccs.McMaster.CA Dept of Computer Science ...!uunet!utai!utgpu!maccs!dan McMaster University (416) 525-9140 x3444
