That would probably be just as bad or worse.  I sent e-mail to 1:3615/50, 
suspecting the guy setup a PC system on an unassigned node number.  So far,
no response.  It is a foreign system that is likely the culprit, I suspect,
not the one local me.  Of course, I don't have access to the PATH line.

Alert!  Alert!  I am not the one running the systems in question!  I do run
a Fido system, but it is not involved.  If necessary, I can use this to 
advantage to bash some heads I suppose, but would rather avoid it.  OTOH,
if you find it annoying....
Will.
