(Eye sockets, from watching hash marks rip across the screen at a blistering 1k per minute) :-) :-) I tried yesterday, 8 December, 1988 and found performance to be the same as always. I am able to connect to Berkeley site and get much better response, so I don't think it is the net. BTW, what is the hardware config at Simtel? =============================================================================== ____ ___ () | currier @ romeo.cs.duke.edu | \ | / | () ===| dynamo @ tucc.bitnet | || | |/ |__ () | Robert D.
