Old habits are hard tobreak.       Ed       --- SBBSecho 3.28-Linux        * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (1:2320/105)       SEEN-BY: 105/81 106/201 128/187 129/14 305 153/7715 154/110 218/700       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/110 112 275 300 307 317 426 428 470 664       SEEN-BY: 229/700 705 291/111 292/854 320/219 322/757 396/45 460/58       SEEN-BY: 633/280 712/848 902/26 2320/0 105 195 304 5020/400 5075/35       PATH: 2320/105 229/426           |
