use your internet web browser and point to the following URL:
http://bbs.neverending.com
You can use your browser to read the FIDO message areas.  You can even 
download them to use with blue wave in qwk format and then re-upload the 
reply packets.
You don't have to telenet to Ed Koon's BBS where the trash is.... He isn't 
the "only game" around.....
Take care!
