I went back into my saved messages, and saw that the last of a real
discussion was a message from me dated 31 January, subject Support. 
Then you popped in briefly in early April with a tease about crazy
stories to be told... and then disappeared from sight again...  :)

If need be, I probably could extract out old messages from me and
re-send...

 DAG>> Regardless, I am quite glad to be back here in one of the FIDONet

 NB> We try, anyway...  :)

 DAG> Nope.  You succeed.  :)

Thank you for the vote of confidence... :)

 NB>> Good to see you back.  :)

 DAG> Thank you.  I'm glad to be back in the area where good discussion,
 DAG> and good people, reign.  Too many of those landmine and air sortie

The landmine etc places I don't even look at, with the one exception of
one that I merely lurk in, mostly for reasons of my own (some of which I
question when things get too nasty even for lurking...[g])  I much
prefer the civil areas... those, to me, characterize FidoNet much better
than the others... 

 DAG> I'm looking forward to more good discussion again.  :)
 DAG> ttys

Hopefully...  :)
