I have a friend who works at NDR in Hamburg, and with whom I would like to
exchange information on a personal basis.  I run a USENET site here in
Northern Michigan, and we tried his calling here, but alas the error rate
afforded by satellite interconnect was such that NO COMMUNICATION WAS
POSSIBLE.

Through DATEX-P, the German packet switching network, he can reach MANY USA
networks, like TYMNET and TELENET (others as well).

What I am wondering is, through these domestic networks, is there a way for
him to reach a public acess UNIX system to enable him to write to me?  If
so, what system(s).  I imagine this to be possible, but do not know how to
go about finding out how, except to post here.

If you can help, Please email flash@lopez.UUCP
