	But if you have FTP access, doesn't that pretty much mean you're 
reading this through UseNet [or "rn" or "nn" or another newsreader, to be
precise... rn != UseNet]??

	Isn't Bitnet is another network like Internet, correct? Do bitnet
people have ftp access? I thought (but maybe wrongly) that ftp access was
only available to people on the Internet which usually meant you read
news with rn or nn or whatever...

	Maybe I made to many assumptions..
