I've done this. It's not hard once you know how. There are only
a few steps to go through to set up UUCP over TCP (ideal for dialup
dynamic IP sites). Last time I did this, I made it more interesting
by making it run over an encrypted SSH tunnel :-)
Sounds like 'UUCP to your home' could be a useful LAID talk. I'll
volunteer.
