I'm looking for the cheapest possible way to gain access to Internet
(telnet specifically) from the Boston metro area. I already have an
account on the Cleveland Freenet, and only need a local dialup number to
allow telnet to Cleveland. Are there any local colleges that would allow
for this for free? I know BU used to be able to do that but they locked
it out.
Thanks,
Steve

	Two years ago I bought a Mirror hard drive which has since suffered a 
severe concussion. ie. it's *very* dead. So, now I'm stuck with a case and power
supply and no drive.
	If anyone has a drive that can replace my original, I would appreciate
hearing from you. The original was a Fujitsu 90MB drive. This particular
model seems to have been taken off the market. One more thing, the SCSI select
assembly has a non-standard connector, so unless your drive is a Fujitsu, I'm
going to have to buy a new assembly. I don't know off-hand how much that would
cost, but whatever.

	Any suggestions about where to find a cheap replacement drive would also
be much appreciated...

	Responses via E-mail only please,

	Thanks a lot,

    I suddenly acquired an adult male cat (*long* story) that I need to
    find a home for.

    Whiskers (the current name the kids have given) is a middle aged cat. 
    He is neutered and his shots are up to date.  He has made a recent
    visit to the vet.

    Whiskers is a 14 pound cat that is smokey gray and white in color. 
    When I got him, he has a few signs that he had a rough life, i.e.
    broken teeth and a couple of scabs.  However, in my house, he is a very
    mellow cat.  He loves to be petted and purrs quite loudly.  He is a
    morning cat in that he will hang out with you then.  He sleeps a lot.
    He tolerates my children hauling him around (no scratching).

    Why do I want to find a new place for this kitty to live?  Because *my*
    cat is stressing.  After four weeks she is still hissing and being very
    aggressive to Whiskers.  Whiskers usually ignores her or runs away (but
    does not hide).  My cat has changed a lot with this addition, and I
    don't like them at all.  

    Whiskers currently lives in Milford, New Hampshire.  My home number is
    603-672-9414.

I want to create an alt group, but I haven't a clue how to do so.
I don't want to go through the RFD etc (I did that once for a different

Can anybody supply the Reader's Digest condensed version of how to

If I find myself in D.C. during the week of the inauguration in January,
how easy or difficult is it for me to attend the ceremony?

Is it general public sit-anywhere-in-the-mall availablity?
Must one acquire tickets for better seating?  How are they acquired?

What time does it start?  What time should one get there to be able
to see decently?

Should I expect _not_ to be able to find decent dwellings because I
was going to be there at that time?

Thanks for any enlightening information...

Steve,

*ALL* BU students have access to a unix machine which would allow one
to telnet anywhere.  You must first get an account (which you already
have since you posted the message) and then you can do what you want.

If you are having problems reaching a specific place, you should send
mail to 'help' on your machine.  

If there are any other questions, feel free to ask.

Hi everyone,  a roomate of mine is moving and I have offered to buy
a computer monitor he let me borrow.

This is an old color Commodore model - the 1702.  It has a composite 
input (front and rear) and I use it exclusively for my VCR.

We can't set a price, however, as neither of us know what is fair.  There
is nothing wrong with it.  The screen puts out a nice image and it
measures 13".

Any ideas on what I should offer?  

Cheers,
