Wot's this about no Aussies?  I'm here, but on the net, not GEnie.
 I tried to figure out how to access GEnie some time ago, but to no avail.

How can I use OTC (Overseas Telecommunications Commission) and their Data
Access service to get into GEnie via telenet or Tymnet or some other sneaky
standard way?    

Ronn   I'm here. . .
