Hi, Denis!  Recently you wrote in a message to All:   
      
    DM>  Why outside FIDO we have not meet with as?   
      
      
            While the majority of Russians who participate in this echo contact   
   us via Moscow, that does not necessarily mean they live in Moscow.  Over the   
   years we've heard from folks who live in (e.g.) Perm, Simbirsk, and   
   Tashkent....  :-)   
      
            The native speakers of English you see writing in this echo at   
   present live in the United States, in Canada, or in Australia.  Of course I   
   know Dallas Hinton... and I've met Bob Seaborn (1:140/1), who sends mail from   
   Moscow to us. But much as I would like to visit Russia or Australia or the   
   other side of this continent, they are all thousands of kilometres away from   
   where I am.   
      
            I'm in the southwestern corner of Canada, near the Pacific Ocean.  :-)   
      
      
      
    DM>  I'm from Russia.   
      
      
            And I see your message travelled via no less than five Russian   
   Fidonet systems before its arrival on Bob Seaborn's system:

    DM>  Welcome to Moscow city!   
      
      
            Thankyou.  I'm glad to know where you are & I'm glad to know there   
   are so many Russian SysOps helping us make this echo available to other   
   folks.  ;-)
