To the ANS person who is upset at the "bullshit and muckracking..."
If I have errored in any assertion of fact please point out where. You
haven't done that so I must conclude that we disagree over what the issues
are.
Net work communications costs in Russia ARE traffic sensitive and rising
catastrophicly on a weekly basis. I know this because I am just back
from a week of extensive interviews of net people there.
Jack Rickard is in the midst of taking Boardwatch magazine from 22,000
circulation to 72,000 per month...his plate I suspect is somewhat full.
since if i remember correctly the nsf just paid for half the cost of a
direct link for czechoslovakia to the internet, maybe it could do the same
for RELcom, the largest russia net with 60,000 members and nodes in 70
cities?
