    NB>> So enough to possibly share... ;)   
      
    MK> I suppose but it is sharing that got it down so low in the first   
    MK> place.  I doubt it will last to 2020-01-01 sharing or not.  Mind you   
    MK> it is still sitting there untouched since 2019-11-05.    
      
   And only about 40 days to go, now....   
      
    NB>> Guess you learned from that... :)   
      
    MK> Like always.  So far the only thing beyond the basics that has   
    MK> survived is the dynamic cybertoast countdown tagline thingy.  I   
    MK> suspect that it still works on "Little Mikey's Brain" - which is the   
    MK> official Fidonet nodelisted machine - but as of last half dozen months   
    MK> I avoided replying with that setup due to issues beyond my control.    
    MK> Someone on that path is altering messages which given all the years it   
    MK> has been going on it appears to me will never get fixed.    
      
   It might not be anything that the sysop can do anything about, just   
   built in to the bbs software that is being used... Is there a way to   
   change which path your messages would take, like sending through someone   
   else...?    
      
    MK> So far the only 'fix' I have come up with is to avoid using the   
    MK> node which is really, really sad.  Oh well.    
      
   As in, not using "Little Mikey's Brain"...?   
      
    NB>> I certainly was ready to take a break at the end   
      
    MK> Understood.  You need to take a rest from the 'vacation'.   
      
   It wasn't exactly a vacation, for much of the traveling, just places I   
   needed to be....  ;)   
      
    NB>> Right now we are in a really cold snap   
      
    MK> So I've heard.  Up here in the Great White North, Manitoba and Quebec   
    MK> have been ground zero for early winter storms so far.  Out here on the   
    MK> western edge we've gotten below average temps but nothing serious ...   
    MK> yet.  I'm still shell-shocked from last year's storm of the century.    
      
   For about a week there, we had well below average temps, both for highs   
   and lows, and broke a number of records... The next week or so should be   
   better... with highs into the 50sF or at least high 40s, they say...   
   That would be about 10C...   The about a foot of snow we got is pretty   
   much all gone now, except for the piles from plowing/shoveling....   
      
   ttyl       neb   
      
   ... Of course I'm on topic... Which echo is this anyway?
