  What does this mean?

  I thought your idea was to set up an alternate net with you as the
hub... trading internet-type packets so we can either poll you or an
ISP direct for LOCUSER (or maybe AVT-reborn)?

  Is this still your idea? I thought it was a great idea... a way to
dip a toe into the Internet standards without all the crap of www and
home pages and shit.

  I shall be excessively annoyed if you cut me when you go internet. 
I'll need a while to swap software (and write my TinyPoint internet-QWK 
conversion), or move back to the PCUG.

  Where can I get details of the Internet dialog equivalent to the Fido 
Wazoo hello? I'm using Telix to dial up, and I need to know what crap
to send to poll for Internet mail so I can rewrite TinyPoint.

Regards,
Bob
