	It seems like no discussion of Operating Systems can occur
	without someone mentioning Multics and how gracefully it
	solved problems which still plague other OS's twenty five
	years later.  From what I have heard, it certainly sounds
	like an interesting system, and one that I should learn
	more about.  Can anyone point me towards a source for
	Multics documentation?  And perhaps more importantly,
	is there anyone out there who has a internet-accessible
	Multics system who would be willing to give me a guest
	account?

Thanks in advance,
	Dan
