Check the "Nixpub" postings that pop up monthly in the comp.misc newsgroup. There is also a 1-900 number where you can hook up, and are literally charged by the minute! -- asylvain@felix.UUCP (Alvin "the Chipmunk" Sylvain) =========== Opinions are Mine, Typos belong to /usr/ucb/vi =========== "We're sorry, but the reality you have dialed is no longer in service.

I believe he is asking about "PC Pursuit", a service that goes through telenet (an 800 or local call) and gives modemers a flat rate fee for long distance calls (to most cities in the US). All I know about PC Pursuit is that it is limited to most MAJOR cities in the US, and that their flat rate fee keeps going up. I believe you can call 1-800-TEL-ENET for info on it. NOTE: I do not subscribe to PC Pursuit, and cannot vouch for the service. _____________________________________________________________________________ | | | "NUKE THE UNBORN GAY WHALES!" | Jeff Miller | | - graffiti | millerje@handel.CS.ColoState.Edu | |_____________________________________________________________________________|
