 BL> Not really... all I have to do is call you a fuckwit in UUCP
 BL> and see if you call me a fuckwit back. That system is almost as
 BL> good as two-way communication and a hell of a lot more
 BL> reliable. 

 PE> Yeah, and what about all the messages you want to post about
 PE> your blood pressure etc? 

  Like this...

  I went to the doctor PAUL EDWARDS IS A FUCKWIT the other day and he
said PAUL EDWARDS IS A FUCKWIT and my blood pressure had levelled off
but PAUL EDWARDS IS A FUCKWIT.

  Rod Speed writes everything with three macros and PAUL EDWARDS IS A
FUCKWIT, so why cant I? And PAUL EDWARDS IS A FUCKWIT

 PE> And anyway, the fuckwitfuckwit thing will only work when you
 PE> get it 100% right, as opposed to at the moment where you can
 PE> see that you are 50% right. 

  9/10 is good enough for me. If I get one anwer I can write lots more.

 PE> I am waiting on you and Dieter to get alternative methods for
 PE> sending mail, and that is either you have to move to John T's
 PE> board or get your internet stuff working or live without the
 PE> ability to send messages (which is a ludicrous option). 

  That ludicrous option is my preferred option. I got 20 messages
this morning so I have to cut back anyway... It's the story of my
life; I either go whole-hog or not at all.

 PE> Basically I do not have the technology to run my system as
 PE> partly fidonet at this stage, and wish to go 100% UUCP. 

 BL> Intentionally? Because that is not *my* intention.

 PE> I've got no idea what you're talking about Bob.

  I thohght you meant that you inteded to cut all links to Fido, but
you have since made that clear. Your link is through John/Jeff and
will remain so until you change your mind.

 PE> But I want to go 24 hours UUCP ASAP. I could attempt to do
 PE> fidonet from 8-9pm, but I'd likely forget all the time, and
 PE> don't have the ability to make the line engaged when I forget.

  I know all that, and I have told you, DO IT! Cut me off. I'll make
my own arrangements.

Regards,
Bob
