   yup... the problem, as noted previously, is that some sysops build their   
   message bases from the backbone.na list but there is no way for their software   
   to update their areas from a new copy of the file... once built, updating the   
   titles and descriptions is a manual thing and there's no notification of   
   differences between the new file and the old one...   
      
    ml>>>> your sysop used an old list when they created the areas on their   
    ml>>>> bbs... your sysop needs to rename the echo on their system so they   
    ml>>>> have the proper name on it... your sysop is the one that needs to

   i sent my netmail direct and then followed up with a li'l "have you?" note in   
   the test echo where he had recently posted... he did respond to both but   
   apparently found the netmail after he read my post in the test echo... his   
   response to me was that on his next day off, he would fix the title of the   
   BAMA area on his system to use the new title and description...
