TD>On (03 Feb 97) TOM ANDERSON was mumbling to TIM DILL...
TD> TA> You are kidding about this aren't you?  Moderator Emeritus?
TD> No I am not, Rich Ward is the "Official" Moderator Emeritus
TD> here, however according to his host, Sysop Gene G. Rich
TD> has not polled for mail since last August (96) so I may
TD> have resigned the post of "Asst" in July (96) I believe
TD> that ONE of the former Mods should have the password.
The reason I questioned the Moderator Emeritus is because I looked it up
in the dictionary and found. "Discharged from duty with honor on account
of infirmity, age, or long service."  Having met Father Rich at San
Diego, I can understand the title. Anyone else claiming it would seem
kind of pretentious. Your logic is sound, your claim to the title....
But, that is of little consequence. Has anyone tried to get ahold of
Rich? I know his health may be in question.
TD> Since Rich is offline (perhaps permanently) that leaves
TD> me.
No that doesn't leave you Tim, that does include you.
TD> The reason I believe that the former mod should be listed
TD> is so the echo NEVER falls off the elist as it is NOW...
Actually, the logic used in dropping echos is quite sound. If no one
wants the job, the echo goes. If it's meant to be, it will be picked up
by the new kids on the block.
TD> We have until the 1st of March to put this back on the elist
TD> so we DO NOT fall off of "fidonet.na" or the backbone...
TD> This area after all is the oldest BBONED recovery echo, I think
TD> we should save it.
Just like sobriety, if you don't care about it. You don't deserve to
reap the benefits of it.  You seem to really care about it Tim. Why
don't you hang on to it. The echo that is. Well sobriety too. (G) I'm
digging a hole here... (Grin)   You read the echo, there isn't a big
rowdy crowd here. (discounting me of course (G))  The elist thing is
really only a file that you can upload as needed.  What could be
simpler?
I would do it myself, but I may not be around in awhile. My ticker isn't
getting better.
I, for one, would just as soon have you watch over it for us users. If
you don't want the job. Others will take up the banner.  This IS only a
hobby. :-)
