     Exactly!  That is the problem.  Turning off the "high-bit ASCII"
does more than just turn off IBM box graphics, it also turns off half of
the international character set in a lot of cases.  The Sysop has to
realize this, or you have to point it out to him or her when you post a
message.  American BBS software often assumes IBMPC as a default.  When
the software is set to block an ANSI art, it also blocks international
posts.  With the 'GR' page in the character set turned off, many
international messages can not be written.  The "world BBS" is a
relatively new phenomenon.  Most BBSes used to be simple "metro BBSes"
for the most part, until the advent of ISP's and subscriber broadband.
