   The seven-bit restriction   
   03 Feb 14 16:45:00   
   
   Just out of curiosity: why in Heavens Name are you keeping the seven-bit   
   restriction in the program?   
      
      Already in 1999 when I hacked the EXE-file and made it Y2K compliant, I   
   removed that restriction. Those of you who have used my patch from then no   
   longer have a robot that changes hi-ASCII characters to a "?".   
      
      So why, why, why? Why does this "new" version have this restriction?   
      
      Check out the listing of 2:203/6 to see what little progress we have made   
   for soon to be 15 years. I've had that listing, properly spelled, for many   
   years now, and I'm still just Bj?rn in the nodelist there... :(
