Life and death situations...

Once upon a time in the deep dark reaches of the past there was a conference
machine called ALAN@NCSUVM, run by the one and only Alan Clegg. That was
a long time ago, maybe even six months, a long long time when you are talking
about the lives of conference machines.  It seems that some poor misinformed
souls still think that it is a chat.  Alas, it is not. North Carolina State
has it's own Relay machine now, and the conference machine ALAN is dead as
a doornail.  Mr. Clegg is alive and well and wishes to compute with his
userid, but must find it very difficult when people send him messages like
/HELP.  Enough said?

Incidentally, my userid is not a file server or conference machine. I had
a great laugh the other day when someone sent me a /HELP message and I
replied with something like INVALID COMMAND: TRY HELLO.

Well, it was funny at the time.

The same Alan told me that RELAY@BITNIC will be shut down during the
day due to the massive traffic going through the PSUVM --> CUNYVM
link.  This means that the Relay network will be split in half
during the day.

For the next few weeks MAS@CORNELLA, the Relay that was reported dead
last week, will rise from the dead on weekends from 6:00pm EST on
Fridays until Mondays at 6:00am.

The Relay USER701@CLVM (Clarkson University) will now be known as
plain old RELAY@CLVM. We can thank Jonathan Goodman for the information.

Thanks to Randy Fleer for passing on the sad news that RELAY@UNLVM
will no longer be operating.  The reason for it's demise, like so
many others, is money, as in a budget axe poised over the
University of Nebraska.

There is another NETSERV up and running at the Rutherford Appleton
Laboratory near Oxford, UK (that's England for you unsophisticated types).
It is NETSERV@UKACRL. Thanks to Bert Pasch for that bit of info.

Now the really good news: Guy Sirton has told me that NYSHARE@WEIZMANN is
once again open to all of BITNET on a test basis.  Please don't go
crazy and ask for 30 files in five minutes.  That would only result in
it being closed up again.

*  H   A   P   P   Y      T   H   A   N   K   S   G   I   V   I   N   G  *

Which reminds me... I will be at home on Friday, recovering from Thursday,
so next weeks BITLIST will be either late (Sunday) or nonexistent.  I
will probobly opt for late.

By the way, this is the 25th issue of the BITLIST.  We should have a
party!
