Dear friends;we are from the Soviet Union and we work on setting
up a computer network in the S.U. which will be called GlasNet and
will be a part of APC. It's a charity non-profit project sponsored
by the International Foundation for the Survival and Development
of Humanity. We really need your help. There are modems in our country 
which are not good for our purposes. And due to the bad conditions
of our economy most organizations are unable to pay for foreign made
modems in hard currency ( rouble is not convertible ). Non-profit
institutions are the poorest. Maybe some of you could suggest some
way of settling it. It could be some kind of joint production of modems
in the U.S.S.R. We are most interested in MNP modems.Also if some of you
got modems which you don't use we would appreciate if you donated them
to GlasNet to make some more Soviets happy members of our community.
Our Email addresses are pn:sergei or pn:alexz.
                               With respect Alex Zaitsev and Sergei
                               Boukhonin, GlasNet staff members.
