The WELL has UUCP connections to the following sites:

	aci		apple
	dual		forum1
	hplabs		island
	micropro	netisun
	ptsfa		triton1

At present we have no autodialer, so mail will be passed on when
these sites call us.

Willingness (or lack thereof) to connect to new sites that
want to join usenet.  If you run uucp, tell if new sites can
call you, if you will poll them, what your policy is.
If on the arpanet, are you willing to forward news on to new
sites by establishing an arpanet usenet connection?

Please call the contact person for information.
We're not on the arpanet (much as we might wish otherwise).

If you want to publish your uucp phone number, login, and password,
include that info.

We're happy to get new UUCP connections, so if you want one,
call the contact person.
