I have a vague recollection that my choice of name may have been inspired by a UUCP hostname in a Usenet post, so maybe it was this particular VMS machine.

- dhosek 6y agoPossibly, but I suspect it would have been someone else's yggdrasil. The unix system, owned by the bio/cs department (in those days they had one guy who did bio full time, one guy who did cs full-time and one guy who did both) was on uucp, but all the VMS machines were exclusively BITnet until the BITnet protocol and UUCP protocols fell by the wayside with the unification of BITnet/UUCP/Arpanet as the internet.
