        Yep.  I love how TG does the EMSI stuff for that can allow
        you just to hit one key log in..get mail...leave and
        bam done with just one key and get mail.

        I only have had 2 or 3 QWKers most were BWavers.  I still
        have one node in Canada that does only QWK but being ld
        don't blame him :)
