Anyone else out there tried the Isaac bulletinboard in
Washington.   It is an IBM board for faculty and staff.

Isaac has an 800 number and provides a specially arranged version
of kermit to access their board.  I gather from its documentation
that it will lock up some times.  I suspect that my speech program
is somethow the problem, but it locks up on me within a couple of
screens.   Makes the system next to inaccessible.

I wonder if anyone else has tried it.  If so, did you have this
trouble?  If so, did you find a way to lick it?
