        Its like pushing rocks uphill.  corporations care less
        about bbses.  There might be one computer shop in
        500 that know of the BBS world and MAY tell about it.
        But they aren't dumb.  They'lls eel their high speed
        modems and software for the 'net.  Not many shops
        are willing ot help us like they did back in the '80s
        when they published bbs lists and such.
