Speaking of memory problems.  We want to add 4 MB more to Clout.
I'm donating 2 spare SIMMs, and if we can get someone to donate
2 more, we'll install them.  Anyone?

Yeah, there does seem to be problem.  I hit it a couple time while
using a USR V.32bis modem.  I hit the return key about 10 times
and it finally spit out the cc-tip> prompt.

>Find that modem and put it out of its misery!

I wish we could!
