I think I will add some new echos now that I know you are so interested LOL
Find the gutter you crawled out of Lee and enjoy it, please... it's just your
style :)

Luckily, most people understand the echolist is simply a tool for sysops to use
if they care to, it makes their echos more easily available with a good
description of the topic for the echo.  No one has to use it, and not everyone
does :)

One of these days I'll post the number of requests I get from folks in fidonet
asking me what the topic of some unlisted echos are... I can't help them
because these echos are not on the echolist, and I tell them that.
