They certainly exist by site and by company. here we have set of wat. groups distributed among all campus sites, and we will be setting up ont. groups for sites in ontario. I know there are btl. groups as well. I don't think we want them forwarded out of your local state though. As far as the Arctic Circle is concerned, (although no doubt you said it in jest) Waterloo's latitude of 43 degrees puts it on the same level as many USA sites, and even south of a few, I suspect. And yes, we get all the American TV networks, in addition to all our own.. ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
