[comp.sys.apple] Retrieval from APPLE2-L

Depends on the size of the file IF you can retrieve at all (I gather
you can).  BROWNVM-->YALEVM-->CUNYVM-->UCBVM-->UCBJADE (which IS
Berkeley.edu viewed from the bitnet side).  the Yale to UCB portion
of the path is right down bitnet's Main Street (the backbone), and
anything over 10 or 20K may take a day or two to get across (well
it shouldn't be that bad most of the time, but...).  It could be
worse, you don't have to traverse the notorious CUNYVM-->PSUVM-->OHSTVM
bottleneck.

Patience :-)
