    ml> ok, i've not seen either one here...   
      
   I got a response on the netmail I sent to the link and it turns out for   
   whatever reason 1:153/7001 got dropped from all the areas it was connected to.   
      
    ml> making sure you are connected to the area   
      
   Great guess as it turns out.  However it is unneeded as I now have the answer.   
      
   I respectfully apologize for any grief this issue may have caused.   
      
    ml> send them over in a plain zip file   
      
   Heh, heh.  I haven't created a zip file in AGES.  If I am not mistaken it was   
   around 1998-ish when the local Fidonet (Nanaimo) network died.   
      
   Life is good,

   ... Don't cry for me I have vi.
