- Having SCI on the network would be nice, but I don't see it happening
- anytime soon because:
-
- 1. Why should they? They know you are going to make a toll call to get
- stuff from them anyway
-
- 2. It would cost them to do it.
-
- 3. Art Allen is a person somewhat lacking in clues who will send you
- a form letter to the effect of:
-
- Dear &Name
-
- Thank you for the la la la la la
-
- ...
-
- Though we understand that this enhancement would fulfill particular
- needs at your site, not enough customers would benefit from this
- enhancement to justify the development, testing, and documentation
- time it would take to integerate it into....
-
- etc etc
-
- Very truly yours
-
- Art Allen

- I would settle for them just being on the internet through a mail
- gateway. That shouldn't cost them too heavily and we could mail them
- with problems and they could mail us back stuff.
-
- If you decide to follow up on this, get a track number and post it,
- I'll call and add my name to the list.
