Be forewarned, you can only do searches from the (203) number, not from the 800 number. The 800 number is only for initial registry. Thus, you have to tack long distance (for most of us) to Connecticut onto the $0.20 per search charge. Also, I have had trouble connecting with the (203) number in any parity/bits setup they give.

The 800 number is only for initial registry. I registered about 6 months ago with my previous address. I really need to change it...anyway, does anyone know how many addresses it actually contains? How fast is it growing? -marvin -- Marvin Raab Arlington, VA 22202 (703) 521-5449 ...uunet!vsedev!grebyn!marv +--------------------------------+ ...mimsy!umd5!grebyn!marv | Formerly: marv@vsedev.VSE.COM | ...marv%grebyn.COM@umd5.UMD.EDU | MFRQC@CUNYVM.BITNET |

Yea, and I got a VMS symbolic stack backtrace (and got logged
off) when adding an address, some kind of resource locking fault.
Great fun, this computer database stuff...
