BITNET is not a dialup network. I actually used a BITNET machine in Israel once; you can talk to the USA in real time from there (you have mail, file transfer and talk capabilities); it's just that the protocols are different from the Internet. BTW, I realize that this is not the place to discuss all this, but it was brought up here. -- Stuart Freedman {genrad|ihnp4|ima}!wjh12!talcott!sesame!stuart Data General Corp. {cbosgd|harvard}!talcott!sesame!stuart Westboro, MA or mit-eddie!futura!stuart I'm too busy reading other people's cute quotes to think of any of my own.
