I read in a newspaper article recently that The Cable News Network (CNN) had computerized its newswire services, and they were saying how it enabled them to collect breaking stories, and bring them to the attention of the proper persons, etc. Interestingly, the computers they used were Onyx C8002's under Unix. Now don't laugh, those beasties can compute reasonably well, given the chance. I know 'cause we have one here that we load up with as many users as we can connect to it. What I was wondering is: Is CNN listening to USENET? If you know, I'd like to hear from you. Erik E. Fair ucbvax!fair fair@Berkeley
