   Marc -   
      
   This is Jeff Soper, (Co-Sysop,) The Black Knights BBS. I lost your email to   
   contact you directly. I just like to email you about getting my BBS connected   
   with the internet. I'm getting a static ip address phone line installed soon.   
   So please email me. So    
   we can discuss on how to get my dial-up modem to where it can connect and   
   detect human callers (telnet) from data type of calls. You can email me at   
   jeffs4947 at gmail.com
