The pproblem that I am facing is that the computer that I am calling is a DEC
machine that is running some strange operating system that I have NO ideas
on how to get around. The operators up there assured me that they cannot change
the modem ports just for little ole me and that the terminal interfacing roblem
was mine to deal with... Oh well...

Any more ideas?
