FWIW: here's the last elist entry, from Sep 2015, for this area...

note that yes, it was dropped from the elist and never relisted or renewed...
while it is still listed as being "carried on the backbone" (by virtue of
being listed in backbone.na), this may not remain true and the area may be
moved to a non-backbone distribution group by carrying systems or they may
elect to drop the area altogether... we'll just have to see what the next
backbone.na and backstat files bring us...

it should be noted that the above FTN address no longer exists, frank is not
listed in the fidonet nodelist with any other address, and scinet seems to be
another dead/defunct FTN othernet...
