BJ> Probably high school math or possible 4-12 (maybe K-12) special

 BS> Oh okay, do it really require a master degree, in this 
 BS> country people are teaching in "elementary school" 
 BS> (kids with age from 7-16), did only study 4 years in 
 BS> some non-university.

You only need a Bachelor's (B.A.) degree to teach through highschool (thru
17 / 18 years old) in this state.  But those with Master's degrees or
additional classed beyond the bachelor's degree make more money.  Since I
already have both a bachlor's (B.S.) degree and a Master's degree, I should
be able to just spend about 1 year getting a second master's degree....

 BS> Only high school teachers requires a master degree (youths from 16-20).

In this state, as noted above, the additional degree is a monetary
incentive.  Teaching certificates are controlled by each state, not the
federal government, so there can be differences throughout the US.  But,
the (federal) department of Education will have influence on the state
requirements.....

 BJ> Aerospace....  [Spelling is not rocket science..... ]

 BS> Oh okay ;) Then you do know alot about Aerodynamics 
 BS> too? (I allways found it interesting, but I didn't do 
 BS> studying it).

Not aerodynamics, but more on the computer support of that industry.... 
Defense, Space and Aerospace (as well as a few other industries) tend to
have rather formal configuration management and quality assurance
procedures and controls.....  Most software doesn't care similar
requirements....

 BJ> Hmmm....  I know the runbbs.sh script (version 1.1) would re-start

Ok....

 BJ> Understand.  We need MEX, file transfers and Qwk

 BS> Download of QWK packets work, but upload don't because

Interesting that downloads work but uploads don't.  Ah....  We are still
interpreting somethings that causes upload errors.....  Probably need to
turn off some things (TTY or for the handle of the TCP/IP session) to get
uploads working then....

 BS> ?

Maximus/2 has a size limitation on the buffer used to read in the previous
message and used for quoting.  In full screen mode, using
, you don't see the end of the message you are quoting
if that message is too long for the buffer.  The OS/2 buffer is laarger
than the DOS buffer.....  I suspect the Win32 buffer is the same size as
for OS/2.  I am guessing that Maximums / Linux buffer is also the same size
as the OS/2 buffer.

Take care.....
