Hi Hailey, Jay, hope you are having a nice day

>>I've seen this happen before.  Yahoo being the quality service that it is.
HJ>yup-yup
HJ>And worth every damned cent we pay for it.
HJ>Point of order - Garry have you considered hitting up VYger.net to see if 
HJ>they could host TCR and how much that might cost?  Just curious.

 Garry could also send an email to Dale Ross, the guy who handles the
gateway system, and ask him to setup the mailinglist function on the
bbs program he uses that does the gateway. From what I understand
BBBS will do both mailinglist and newsgroup functions right along
w/ regular bbs and gateway duties.

 And his system is down a lot less than yahoogroups seems to be, plus
even if it did go down there's a mess of other systems where you can
get the echos by email, newsgroup, mailinglist, and web browser(http)
right along w/ the old fashioned methods of telnet or dialup.

 And if you still liked using things like qwk, bluewave, silver express
you can get those packets too using the internet in whatever way
you prefer.
