Hello comp.bbs,

I was thinking about offering a news service on my BBS (Dow Jones, AP, USA Today,
etc...).

I have seen files on BBSes for USA Today and AP but when I try to follow up 
the info in the files I either get a "number disconnected" message, or a
constant busy signal -- over a three hour period in one case!!!!

Do any of you currently offer news on your BBSes?  If so, please pass on any,
and all the info you can spare!  Thanks in advance...

Cheers,
Howie  ( howie@fnma.COM )
