   I believe it. A lot of names have high ascii in them. My last name, for   
   example, should have an umlaut "e". I was born and raised in the USofA, but my   
   ancestors all weren't (like most, if not all of us). *shrug* I can see how   
   people would want to be able to use their real name, the way it is spelled. I   
   don't use mine much, that's why I don't make a big deal of it.

   If I remember right DBridge isn't a BBS software, but a combined mail/file   
   tosser with built-in tic processor and a bejeebus amount of other features. But   
   alas, Nick still uses Renegade BBS software.   
      
   Synchronet is pretty difficult when first jumping in. It takes some getting   
   used to, that's for sure.
