BITNET nodes database.  Updated to VERS9210, so it's some number of
months newer than the previous version of this file.  The format is
somewhat less ugly than it was previously, please send me suggestions
as to how it might be improved.

The current database can be found on the host vm.utdallas.edu in the
BITNET directory.

This is probably available by a message to listserv@bitnic.educom.edu,
but I don't have the exact syntax handy.  (And you can probably
search it to by sending some JCL but I forget how to do that.)
