Sorry to post this to the entire net, but my individual replies to PAWKA at brl
keep getting returned with an "unknown user name" message.  PAWKA at brl wanted
to know how to reach decwrl in order to enter the Obfuscated C Contest.  The
answer to the question is that you can reach the usenet from the arpanet
through a gateway such as seismo that is on both the arpanet and the usenet.
Since decwrl and seismo are both usenet backbone sites, decwrl can probably be
reached from seismo without any other additional path information.  You would
just send to: seismo!decwrl!<contest address>@seismo.  If you need a full path,
one would be: seismo!hao!hplabs!tektronix!decvax!decwrl.

Cheers--
