The obvious problem with this, of course, is that cross-country phone
calls are expensive and transferring kilobytes per day, even at 1200
baud will run up a large phone bill which many people are unwilling to
pay, especially if they feel that Usenet is more of a convenience than
a necessity (heaven forbid!).
