I know no offense was meant so none taken. :)

The FidoNews has been dead for decades and the FG was crapped on by several
zone 2 sysops who are xenophobic and have an intense hatred of Americans
(and yes, I can name names!  not here tho) so it's no surprise.

Don't waste your time on Fidonet.  Go where you are wanted.  I've run my own
FTN network, Micronet, for 24 years now and the Fido Z1C and several RCs and
Z2ers hang out there as I do not suffer fools.

If you run into issues with the TBBS newsletter software, don't hesitate to
contact me.

Please don't take my seemingly being overly curt in my messages as an
insult; I am in poor health and have been having a lot of issues lately and
I come across as sounding angry when I'm not.

Best of luck with your newsletter!

P.S. I've been informed that the FIDOGAZETTE echo is still being used as a
flame echo even though I took it off the backbone and have the echo as a
placeholder in the Elist.  I'd avoid it and all the FIDO* echoes for
sysops...they're all cesspools.

P.S.S.  If you want to check if someone is still in Fidonet, check the
nodelist. :)
