    Oh, no worries mate, I will not.  8-)

that
 AI> becomes necessary. That is the fidonet way. It's even written in policy.

   A policy written by a handful of Z1RCs as can clearly be seen:

   1. RCs does not, unlike a ZC or an NC, route netmail.

   2. The RCs select the ZCs *and* appoint the NCs.

   3. Only the RCs can change our policy.

   4. RCs has node numbers that are not logical from a technical POV.

   How's that for the perfect dictatorship? The generals are running the
fidonet world -- controlling both presidents/PMs and LEAs.
