PE> During your brief stay on the board tonight,

all manual, too! except for the login. Too lazy to write a script
yet. Keeps me awake, I spose. And of course it was brief: I've got
your reputation as the world's meanest sysop to think of, haven't I?

Not sure what that means, but I've noticed nothing odd in the last
week or two. Downloading of your local areas has been quite normal,
and when I Browse/Current/Yourmail/Pack the Avtech echo, I get what
I expect, ie the bbs remembers where I last looked.

YUK!! Neolithic bbsing!!

I'm quite familiar with yr type of bbs program in full screen mode,
as I use other bbs's this way. The overhead at 14400 is tiny, and I
can use it and recover from problems faster.

When a point goes funny, it does so in a BIG way. I'm happy as is;
it only takes me 100 odd seconds 3 or 4 times a week to get what I
want.
