   Amen to that.

   During all my three decades as *C I've managed to assist many new BBS
operators into being connected to the fidonet BBS network.

   So I cannot other than agree with you Alan.

   Unfortunately only a few nodelisted systems are operated by real BBS sysops,
so unless you are really fortunate and happen to get in contact with a true BBS
sysop, all you can hope for is help to get a one-man nodelisting. Previously
known as a point system.
