Reply to Paul Clegg's commentary on BBS's in general... I'll agree with your comments on BBS's. ANSI overkill really ticks me right off! I don't want to log into a system and wait for a bunch on ANSI garbage to come spewing into my screen. I would perfer a system that takes you right to the main menu prompt and then you can decide if you want to view those great ANSI pictures someone spent hours putting together. If the board is too bad alot of the time I'll go into set up and turn the ANSI screen codes off, then using the board becomes more realistic and less time consuming. -Mike- Michael Jensen, University of Regina, Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada JENSENM@MEENA.CC.UREGINA.CA -or- JENSENMI@MAX.CC.UREGINA.CA
