Just wondering:  What are some of the things it could mean?

When I try, I get an immediate error message from netscape, so it's not
that there's a router down between here and there.  I can ping
cs.stanford.edu.  Lynx also gives an immediate error.  So there's a
problem with their server, right?  I don't know what else it could be.

You could write to EMAIL:PROTECTED in case they don't already
know about it, but I'll bet they know about it.
