		Lisa,




	I'll bet you a doughnut that you have Usenet on the machine you use
to dial in.  If you can get to a UNIX prompt, just type "nn" and see what
happens.  If not, try going to Netscape on the web, and looking for their
newsgroups section.  If still no success, try going to www.yahoo.com, and
conducting a search using the word "usenet" (or "Usenet" or "USENET").  



	Are you at a college?  Do they have geeks there?  If you don't
know where the geeks are offhand, go into the basement of the math
department, find a soda machine where all the Diet Coke is sold out, and
follow the cans and candy wrappers to their lair.  If you approach
quietly, you should be able to get a good look at them.  When you come
upon them, understand that they are not used to the sight of human
females (except in JPG format) and may panic. 



	If you can't find a geek lair, go to the computer lab.  If the
person at the door tells you that it is for CompSci only, tell him that
you are just delivering a message.  Ask where the X-terminals are.  Once
you find the x-terms, look for a screen with a Japanese animation still
featuring a semi-nude female character as background and four windows
open.  Approach the geek directly and ask him specific questions,
Understand that specific answers will not be forthcoming.  Ask for basic
steps and have the geek demonstrate. They love to demonstrate.  Glean what
you can. 



	peace
