   What's the problem with Ohio State?

Nothing at all, as far as I can see.

   Is this just a difficulty for British
   sites or do people the other side of the pond find it just as inaccessible?
   (I've tried both through UUCP and the Arpanet).

Since Tuesday morning 5am, when the current syslog was initialized, 6
pieces of UK-origin mail have arrived at our main gateway system.  The
total is 16 since Friday 5am.  The world looks like a quite happy and
marvelous place to me.  Personally, I get ~200 pieces of mail every
day, about a quarter or a third of which comes from off-campus.  I
know of no connectivity troubles, either via UUCP or Internet.
