Yes, thank goodness .

Sadly, we seem to have no control over that sort of thing.. at least until
the source of the gate is found.. This fellow seems to be working with the
people who originate usenet though, and he seems to be looking for
information about a number of Z2 groups, including: (fido.belg.3dstudio    
        Fidonet: 3DSTUDIO.B conference.
fido.belg.allfix.support        Fidonet: ALLFIX_SUP.B conference.
fido.belg.amiga                 Fidonet: AMIGA.B conference.
fido.belg.babel                 Fidonet: BABEL.B conference.
fido.belg.bbsadv                Fidonet: BBSADV.B conference.
fido.belg.boeken                Fidonet: BOEKEN.B conference.
fido.belg.cdrom                 Fidonet: CDROM.B conference.
fido.belg.clipper               Fidonet: CLIPPER.B conference.
fido.belg.clubs                 Fidonet: CLUBS.B conference.
fido.belg.contact               Fidonet: KONTAKT.B conference.)

Take care,
Janis
