In a       slow pace, but steady, we were able to add 10 systems to Argentina, Brazil and       Panama in the last 5 years.                It's been a while since Z5 and Z6 are gone...

Nothing changed.              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 2021/12/25 (macOS/64)        * Origin: Saturn's Orbit BBS - Private System (4:801/188)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 4/0 15/0 80/1 88/0 90/0 1 105/81 106/201 120/340 123/131       SEEN-BY: 129/305 330 331 153/7715 218/700 226/30 227/114 229/110 206       SEEN-BY: 229/317 400 424 426 428 452 664 700 240/5832 266/512 282/1038       SEEN-BY: 301/1 317/3 320/219 322/757 342/200 396/45 633/280 712/848       SEEN-BY: 801/161 188 189 194 197 900/0 100 102 106 108 902/0 6 7 19       SEEN-BY: 902/25 26 27 100       PATH: 801/188 80/1 90/1 229/426           |
