To All Greetings,

     As you all know, we are rather new.  The BBS network has been around
for over a year, but the internet endeavors are very new.  Consequently,
in the act of having everything routed through my peronal box for the
purpose of moderation some messages from you (good ones BTW)
have been lost in the process of moving them from my box to the active
network for distribution.
     If any of you have posted to the newsgroup or listserv and your messages
have never shown up later, it likely got lost due to the learning curve and
the growing pains mentioned above.  It was not deliberate.
     If your posts contained questions you wanted answered please re-post
them.  I admit, this is a lot to ask, but mostly I am asking your indugences
in a time of rapid growth.  The BBS that is home of the network is, itself,
 growing
as well.  So we have a BBS that is getting a new satelite uplink to the
 Internet,
A newsgroup and a listserv that went online within 30 days of each other
a BBS network, a FIDO and a PODS connection and all of these endeavors
must be carefully cross-posted in such a way as to get mail out to you as
timely as possible without getting them so cross-posted as to create
duplication of posts.  This has already happened, but only in a very small
way (thankfully).
     Perhaps one day we will be perfect.  But then......it wouldn't be fun would
 it?
