Yes!

I have 0 areas in my area configuration. That is kind of the whole point of
importing from backbone.na (or areas.bbs, or any other for that matter). To
create the areas and add their descriptions.

Is the original intent just meant to import the descriptions to said areas
that were already entered manually? If so, I digress. 30 years is a long time
for nobody to complain about that one.

Nick
