ANCIENT NET HISTORY QUESTION!
Okay, fellow old-timer internet folks, @clauclauclaudia and I were talking about ancient USENET stuff and cannot remember if "really early USENET communication between Australia and other places was done via shipping hard drives on Qantas" or not. I know there were times when USENET used shipped hard drives rather than UUCP or whatever, but we couldn't remember if it was standard operating procedure or what.
