Hey, what's up with those "Network MCI" commercials?  Are they part
MCI's attempt to take over the world? 

Or are you guys at VaporWare really behind all of it?  You can tell
us....  :)

Bob,
MCI is too late.  Microsoft, AT&T, and Apple got together in a garage
in Klamath Falls, Oregon last Wednesday and conquered the world.
After they divided the spoils, Microsoft ended up with everything
North of San Francisco, AT&T had everything South of San Diego, and
those shrewd negotiators from Apple ended up with Toledo.  Luther
Lecks, who kindly provided the forms and the refreshments for the
negotiations, somehow ended up with the rest of the United States,
Europe, Asia, and Africa.  The RAH staff didn't even get a raise.

Dave,  
In my hunger for the latest issue of RAH, instead of waiting for my
local BBS to post it, I thought, what the hell - call the Puffy Nest
and get it my self. *WRONG*  After several calls (probably around
eight bucks in long distance charges) I flat out gave up. Tried
several protocols - nothing happened.  System locked up on me and
forced a hang up to get me out of it.  Live and learn, only I didn't
learn anything.  Any ideas about why I couldn't d/l the file???

Jim,
I'm not sure what to tell you.  There have been no problems reported
by any TPN users lately, and I haven't personally seen anything
weird.  Perhaps if you could give me more details (or at least spell
the name of the BBS correctly).  Another thing, it is better to
address BBS tech support questions to Dave Bealer, rather than to
Lettuce.  I may not get around to reading Lettuce messages until days
or weeks later, when the next issue of RAH is being assembled.  Sorry
for any inconvenience. 
Dave
