Willingness (or lack thereof) to connect to new sites that want to join usenet. If you run uucp, tell if new sites can call you, if you will poll them, what your policy is. Again, no qualms about polling in both directions, depending on where you are. Palo Alto and Mountain View areas prefered. (But heck, if you wanna call US...)
