That was a word of advice, not any type of moderatoring.. It's been said
more than once that no one in international echos particulary cares about
Zone 1 discussions.  Sure, you've brought Ward into this discussion, but
not in an accurate sense.

> fingers, and the area is not even in private distribution.

Sorry, it IS in private distribution.  Malcolm has R/W access as IC with my
permission.  A Zone 2 node has R/W access since he asked us all if we
minded if he posted there. Another one or two of my downlinks has read
access. Carol has Read access since she'll most likely be coming back to
Zone 1 eventually. Other than that, all _other_ readers and posters are
Zone 1 sysops.

You just finished telling me you thought it was an open echo :) :) :)

Look, you are the one who said you'll never post in there again.  If you
are not going to contribute, and if you are going to post digests that are
not accurate, then I have to wonder why you even carry it?

In general, no I don't find this discussion entertaining at all... I do
find your suggestion of taking the discussion to FN_SYSOP entertaining
though 

Btw,  you did post quite a bit in Z1C when were were discussing changing
the nodelist entries for IONs in Zone 1, using the # symbol in the location
field. Was that were you got bashed? I surely don't remember that
happening.

Take care,
Janis
