   JK> hehe.. I think so :)  Well, glad we've got this one, thanks again.    
      
   YEah, maybe some of what's been generated with FIdonews will get people   
   thinking, and ideas coming forward elsewhere,   
   such as here.   
   Speaking of which, I'm glad to see some guys like Roger   
   thinking about how backbone ops work, and even though he's   
   not one for letting automation do the posting and dropping a rules and info in   
   the echo at least he forwarded his echo's   
   public msgs from the echolist bot into the relevant echoes   
   he tends.  Doghouse mightn't have been at risk if Ross did a purge, because   
   there are still a couple of regulars posting   
   there, but ABLED might have fallen into the crosshairs.  I   
   just did a search of my echomail processor logs since first   
   of the year, and the last post there before his of OCtober   
   was back in July .

   I'm the opposite, I've got the hypoglycemia thing going on   
   and just getting Kathy to where I could let her sit on the   
   stool while we took apart a piece of equipment to look   
   inside it for which I needed her eyes I had to move heaven   
   and earth.  so, needless to say, mine was definitely heading south at a rapid   
   rate.  Pizza and cold beer fixed that right up though, and we'll do the beans   
   with a batch of cornbread   
   for lunch.

   INdeed it is.  IN fact, it's funny, now that we ran one of   
   the worst trolls out of one of my favorite USenet fora   
   traffic has decreased markedly, but the snr has sure   
   improved.   
      
   JK> Nice to see some interesting discussions there as well :)
