   A state legislative inquiry into the propriety of University
   support to "outside" computer systems has compelled the Universitiy

   connections and Usenet news feeds.

Ouch!  Let's hope this doesn't become a trend.

   As far as I can tell, this only affects a handful of uucp sites in
   Honolulu, most of which have alternative uucp mail paths to North
   America.

Good luck to all of you!
