With all due respect, Bj”rn, unless FidoWeb were able to do reverse time
travel, it would not have made any difference whatsoever; it would have *still*
arrived past 20hrs UTC. Without internet service FidoWeb wouldn't have worked
either.  :)  And in reality, 9 minutes transit time to destination via 3 or 4
systems isn't really horrible IMHO. 

Best regards,
Marc
