Thanks to all of you who responded so quickly. Many sent specific company
recomendations, while several people sent me EXACTLY what I needed: The Public
Dialup Internet Access List (PDIAL). UNFORTUNATELY, there is no company which
offers an Omaha local phone number (yet, MIDnet is in the process of
establishing dialup connections), but there are several companies with 800
access and access via a Public Data Network (PDN) (for example, the local
Compuserve number). Unfortunately, there is a per hour charge for 800 or
PDN use.
Anyhow, the PDIAL list is to LARGE for sun-managers, but those of you who
want to get the PDIAL list, here are the instructions (from the list itself):
+----------------------------+----------------------------+

| 1408 Fort Crook Road South | (402) 291-2503 (Fax) |
| Bellevue, NE 68005 | |
+----------------------------+----------------------------+
P.S. I will be glad to mail the PDIAL list out to anyone who requests it.
