I find when logging into the London POP that this problem only occurs 
when I'm attached to a Finch server. When I'm lucky enough to find a 
ttyc server everything runs smoothly.

Anyone know the difference? BTW I was going to say this happens every

per cent of the time. The plot thickens slightly....
