   yeah... things were planned but then RL and the 'net came along and derailed a   
   lot of projects...   
      
    ON> PS. What was the answer to the origin of Tear?   
      
   tear lines were originally used to indicate the end of the message text...   
   they are used like the ones in news and email... everything below them could   
   be cut off... back in the day when bbses were run off of floppies, systems   
   stripped everything out of the messages they could so they could store more   
   messages... eventually, they were just used to indicate the end of the message   
   body... of course, also stripping out some control data lead to not being able   
   to respond in some ways... for example, you could not respond privately via   
   netmail to an echomail message...

   Do you manage your own servers? If you are not running an IDS/IPS yer doin' it
