Someone posted to tor.general a couple of months ago about a
reporter looking for people who "telecommute" (work from home
via modem or whatever). I followed it up, and the result, for
anyone who's interested, is on page 5 of the June 1987 issue of
"Toronto Computes!". I gather this rag (which is free) is given
away at computer stores and the like. (I'd never seen it before.)
Anyway, just in case some of the people I email with want to
know what I do or what a fuzzy photo of me looks like... :-)

Only?! >*sigh.. Well, that one didn't some out quite the way I said it (the rest of the article was surprisingly accurate). First of all, I'd used 1200 up until a few months ago. Secondly, 9600 bps at home isn't like 9600 direct-connect. See <1840@lsuc.UUCP> in comp.dcom.modems for some of the problems. (Incidentally, in case anyone still cares to find it, the cover of Toronto Computes! announces that it's available at all Metro 24-hour Becker's stores.)
