Just some friendly advice: Any board ("newsgroup") with a prefix of internet or netnews (such as "internet.love-hounds", the one you posted to) is distributed across the nation, sometimes the world. Sending things around the world, in public, using other people's resources, just to ask someone who is also at Carnegie-Mellon something that is of interest only to people in Pittsburgh is not wise, and will undoubtedly piss some people off. I suggest you log on to andrew and type "help arpanet" and read the protocols again... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pete Berger || ARPA: Pete.Berger@andrew.cmu.edu Professional Student || BITNET: R746PB1P@CMCCVB Carnegie-Mellon University || NEXUS@DRYCAS Do not attend this college. || UUCP: ...!harvard!andrew.cmu.edu!pb1p ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "If only I could/make a deal with god/and get him to swap our places..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------
