Calling all oldheads who worked with UUCP. I was flipping through an old O'Reilly book of mine and found this. Being younger, I never used UUCP, so forgive me if I understand poorly, but basically UUNET, as an ISP, had publicly accessible UUCP servers that they treated like FTP, correct?

That's cool and all, but what I wanna know is if there's any more such services available these days. I'm fascinated by UUCP and need an excuse to try it.

Interviewing someone today who has #UUNet on their resume and wow, that really takes me back.
