FIDO lack of usage and deployment I'll accept, however UUCP remains in
wide deployment and usage to this day, and is even aggressively growing
in a number of areas.  Much of the third world (Africa in particular)
hangs off UUCP links, as do large stretches of Scandinavia (Norway and
Finland in particular).
