Gee, maybe you two should get together and see if the Callan can talk to
the Unix PC! :-)

But seriously, I have seen this sort of thing before.  For example, at Callan,
we once were going to get a newsfeed from SDC.  However, we could not get our
UUCP to talk to their UUCP.  However, we have had absolutely no trouble with
machines at Bunker Ramo or Dual.  We never did find out what was wrong.

Maybe someone who has access to a lot of machines should put together a list
of what UUCPs can talk to which other UUCPs and post it somewhere.  Any
volunteers?
