   Hello Matthew!   
      
   ** On Thursday 28.08.25 - 20:08, you wrote to me:

   I dug up some old echomails where I mentioned it.  It was the     
   one operated by the fellow behind rocksolidbbs.com   
      
   It had a pretty good webby solution too.  It was styled     
   differently than echicken's webv4 for sbbs systems. Rocksolid's     
   solution incoporated a message S)earch, and offered taking a     
   peek at viewing the header info (kludges), and presented a     
   pretty good threading pre-view.  I really like the threading-    
   at-a-glance feature. It was even doable on my 3x3" Blackberry     
   screen!  The colour choices for background and text were     
   practically perfect.

   The AI written part scares me.
