Hello Ed Vance!

I can't prove it, but I think you have popped in here before,  
years ago.

Don't worry about it. We tend to remember only what's important  
to us.

That is so true. But fidonet echoes are quite public too, even  
to the casual non-BBS member. Early in the game, echomail was  
restricted within the bbs community and often sysops would only  
allow reading an echo if you were a registered user of their  
BBS. But now, many BBS echo bases are fully viewable and  
searchable via internet.

I would have preferred a non-google-scrapable fidonet. But the  
cat is long out of the bag so to speak.
