Hello Maurice!

"dated"?

I am forcing a shorter than usual line-length with OpenXP.

123456789+123456789+123456789+123456789+123456789+123456789+123 
456789+

There should be a CR after char 63 above.

I do this because then my own messages look nicer (not  
haphazardly wrapped) when I look at them with Telegram on my  
Blackberry!  ;)

I also find it easier to read line-lengths that closer resemble  
the width of a printed page or newspaper column than the  
totally free-flowed paragraphs that sometimes arrive here.

Even using the Telegram and Fido link-up just to get  
notifications when a message has appeared in an echo is amusing  
and handy. It permits taking a quick survey of the new arrival  
to see if it needs a reply or not.
