If you can PC Persuit, you can reach us (and lots of others).

We don't mind public-access users.... but it's not a "free for all".  We do
require a donation of sorts (it's not much) for shell/email/normal Netnews

Or you could call one of the other Chicago-area systems; there are several.
Once you have the Pc Persuit, that is.... (if you can stand GTE Telenet!)
