Hello world. I would like to turn my IIcx at home into an Internet node.
Please advise, posting to the net. Perhaps you also know how to do
this for an Amiga, a NeXT, or a DOS, in which case, please cross-post
as appropriate. Please do not reply under "Apple sues Xerox" or "What
I would like to see in Amiga in the 00's?" as I will, inadvertently
yet deliberately, miss your advice. Thank you.

Ps. I will not blink if I see net response to the effect: "You
blithering idiot! My Frumious LaST 0.01 can do this 25 times better
than your Stinking Machine ever could hope to!" ...or perhaphs: "You,
blithering idiot! My HAL 90586 not only lets me SL/IP with one
finger, when I use its powerful 60 Minutes Per Word Interface, but I
got the software for free as a receipt for my Volunary United Way
Donation at work!" However, I will blink twice if I read: "My Rear
Vice Admiral 64 did do UUCP in less than 16K and that included
screened calling collect from New Zealand, but I trashed it because
East German hackers were breaking in all the time." Yup, at least twice.
"This PARC is full of idiot petals"
-- poet Sylvia Plath, but I might have
messed up on spelling, etcetera.
"Don't sit under the apple trie with any one
but me"
-- on the back of my "Open me first." folder,
or was it by the enDrew Sys Ters?

Well, alright... Yes, IU does teach Sylvia Plath in
its comperative literature and poetry curricula, but
I assure you this is under appropriate licencing agreements
and does not reflect the reading ability or taste of the
taxpayers and elected or appointed officials of the State
of Indiana or the United States Government and its agents.
