UUCPNET Access

Thanks to dataforge to rebooting their UUCP tier 1 nodes. VCC is getting provisioned access to UUCPNET. We'll use this for the pdp-11(sys-v) instances on the communitygrid for mail, news, listserv, fidonet, and basic/pascal/fortran programs. This will also be used to interact with the computer museum in Seattle (sdf!) and as part of a whitepaper the committee will be publishing in 2600 on darknets.

   As a committee we have been in contact with a few ANSI artests to display thier work in the museum. As such we'll be setting up a few large monitors on the wall to display the art.
   Project thread
 * Hack this payphone
   For a fun project we've been working on getting a payphone operational. The mounting bracket has came in and we're needing to get this on the wall. Once mounted users will be able to bluebox/redbox the 
   phone, dial out to other bbs's and even make calls.
