Okay, how do we find out where the nodes are, and how we can get them
interconnected again?

==> I posted a listing of the nodes and their telephone numbers here two or
three months ago.  Give me a chance and I'll do so again ( as soon as I get off
this telephone line and back on FrEdMail so that I can copy it off of the
directory).  The nodes will be listed by state, city, school / school district,
and phone number.

	When I demoed the system at the Apple II club in the next county meeting a few
months ago, I, not wanting to hear the college whine about anything showing up
on their phone bill, simply called up the local node.  It was only two or three
miles away!
