Perhaps...every experiment with that mode has been a miserable
failure...and I believe it's due to lack of promotion, awareness and the
fact that many new "modem" users are internet based.

With that in mind, I put up a web/telnet based BBS...which hasn't got much
action...and that's primarily due to lack of promotion.

As an aside...I use FNOS to conmnect the system here to one of my ISPs to
transfer echomail via FTP.  I had a support oriented question...and found
that no one at the ISP has a comfortable grasp of DOS, let alone DOS based
applications.
