Sigh.

Anyway, I bet my site wouldn't support it even then! 

I'll live with 9600bps. It's still quick, it's just not very reliable IMAO.

I just sent groo@chsdip.UUCP, dac@prolix.ccadfa.oz.au, and donp@blkhole.UUCP
each a copy of the UUCP G protocol document written by Greg Chesson (the
author of the protocol).  If a sufficient number (i.e. > 10) people ask
me for it, I will post it, else mail it to those who request it.
