This would be for people who are not at a university, etc. The only such site that I know of is "sugarland unix", in Texas. Are there any other such sites, preferably ones which run unix? I am discounting Compuserve and Genie because they aren't quite what I'm looking for, which is simply a site which I can use for mail and news. If you know of any, I would greatly appreciate getting some info info about such services, or some pointer on how I could get some information. Or, if you know of some other way of getting to usenet, I'd appreciate hearing about that. Thanks in advance, -ravi ravi@mcnc.org mcnc!ravi@uunet.UU.NET ps: I've heard people mention names like "Unix Connection" and "Well", but I don't know anything about them. Again, I'd appreciate some info. Thanks, ravi
