What the site is all about:
    Mayfield Senior School is a small (~ 200 students), private, all-girls
    College Prep school in Pasadena, Ca.  We are running on a Pixel 100/AP
    under the Unisoft UNIX port.

    The primary use of this system is Computer Science Education at the 
    secondary level.  To my knowledge, we are the first secondary school to
    join USENET.

Systems with whom news articles are exchanged.
    citcsv - polled hourly and on demand.
    trw-unix - polled nightly.  (Relatively expensive call)
Systems with whom mail is exchanged.
    citcsv - as above.
    cithep - as w/citcsv.
At present we are limited to one modem/phone line and hence we cannot readily
support lots of traffic.  We would love to be polled by others as at present
we are only getting a small fraction of news via citcsv.  We would be willing
to forward *limited* quantities of mail but there are probably more efficient
paths w/out going through us!
