Hello, Stewart ...

You wrote to me on Thursday 18 September 2003
about "My Departure" :

 NH>> For information, I will be ceasing all FidoNet participation on
 NH>> 31OCT03.

 SA> May I ask why ?

Sure, you may ask.  Whether you get an answer or not is another creel of goldfish.


Seriously, and to cut a long story short, after twelve-odd years in Fido,
nine of those running a BBS, and nearly seven as a network co-ordinator and
seeing my net collapse from eighty-odd nodes to just three and the total
number of nodes in the whole country collapse from a thriving community of
hundreds to barely enough to support one net nationwide, I have reached the
point where I feel that "the game isn't worth the candle" any
more.


 SA> You will be missed.

Thank you.  [ Maybe you should adjust your sights 8-) ]

Regards,

        Nicolaas
