   You are reading the words of who has stumbled into a maze of twisty
little passages, all enticing. I have more or less stumbled into the net,
and have a few rather advanced questions. First, what net is this: ARPA, UUCP,
some other, or a mixture? About how many computers, and more importantly,
people are there on the net? How do I read the network addresses people leave
at the end of a note, most of which are 3/4 of a line long and jingle around
a dozen exclamation marks? Anything else I should know and you would like to
tell me? Thanks in advance to all the kind souls out there.
