Well, at the momment you can access Compu$erve via the Internet by
telneting to hermes.merit.edu and entering compuserve as the host.

Also, I was just umm, errr...  Experimenting and found that CIS is
infact connecting to the Internet.  At the momment they are beta
testing the thing.  (It requires an unknown password.)

If anyone does know the password, why not e-mail me.  When I find 
that the thing is off beta-testing I will most certainly release
the easily enough found address - but just for my accesses' sake,
I'd rather not.

Cheers
