Today's MOTD was that they have new dial-up numbers, effective immediately, because their phone company has become highly unreliable. We're all promised individual email about this, which makes sense, so we'll have the information in a more permanent form and because not everyone dials in to the shell regularly. (I don't, come to think of it.) The message ends by thanking us for using Panix, "a reliable Internet company for unreliable times."
That's not why I'm pleased. I'm pleased because the Web page listing the dialup numbers has, under New York City, headings for each borough (Manhattanites get to pick any of the four); ISDN; and low-speed modems. I don't have a 300-baud acoustic-coupled connection, but Panix supports them. I'm not managing to connect via the dialup to the new numbers right now, but I have confidence in Alexis and Mara that it'll be sorted soon enough.
