   I had called Ma Bell to disconnect the second line due to cost reasons     
   Instead they made me an offer Icouldnt refuse.  No charge for second line     
   If and when it starts to be charged for again, it will disappear.   
      
   I use Taurus, because it is 32 bit, and I needed a 32 bit front end to enable a   
   pots to telnet utiltiy.  The call is received by the bbs as a telnet   
   connection.
