FIgured, but might have a look.  Just saw something that might be quite
topical to this bbs the other day that was a qwk network.

I remember years ago a few of us wanting to carry the Musiclink which was a
qwk network.  I used to call CHicago, then BOnnie Lambert out in California
kludged together a way to play gateway to fido format, so long as those of
us who were members promised not to provide it to those who hadn't paid
their money. I was mail only at the time she first started doing this so it
didn't really apply.  SHe had some bugs in her kludge though and she quit
doing it.  I called Chicago a few times after I started doing the hub thing
in eastern IOWa then gave up on it myself.

THIs was circa 1994-95 iirc.
