What were you trying to do?

Contact other libraries besides Barton using the info in OLC stock
answers.

What's wrong:

olc answers: 16 -> 7 -> 2 gives this:

} To access library information (from any machine except an RS/6000
} workstation), you can type:
} 
}         add library
}         library
} 
} to get to various card catalogs.  Note that this service is unsupported and
} experimental only.  There are at least 30 educational institutions whose
} libraries are accessible over the internet.  A few of these also have useful
} databases:
} 
} - Boston Library Consortium periodical catalog (UCalifornia)
} - faculty funding opportunities (PennState)
} - faculty research interests (for RPI,UNewMex,UPenn)
} - Latin America newsletter (UNewMex)
} 
} These can be accessed directly (telnet infotrac.rpi.edu), or by using a
} gnuemacs Info file which shows information, and creates telnet connections to
} the libraries (but only under XWindows).

but that's wrong.  when I do it, all I get is access (or non-access) to
Barton.  The old menu that listed the other libraries is gone, and I'm
connected directly to the Barton "Press F6 to begin, F5 to exit." stuff.

What should have happened:
