Nick,

You've overreacted and taken the "One zone to rule.." far to seriously. If you
look at the original post, it was meant be light + smilely.

Further, the intial discussion was about why the success of othernets using one
zone number and why not fidonet do the same. MEANWHILE, some other technical
aspects have come to light.  But there was no need bring ancient politics and
spew vitriol into the mix.

It is 1,2,3, and 4, for now (primarily it seems because of some mysteries and
fears about A MX CNAME etc.. on the internet side) that the most experienced
here don't seem to know how to fix.  Most people "get" that. Let's move on.
Expend your energy towards getting that internet thing solved.
