After searching through all this, I'm finding myself also in agreement
with Roger and Michael.  I also agree that the Internet never seems
to believe that any of Bitnet services are worthwhile, and yet seems
to be growing number of USERS on the Internet that want connections
to Bitnet.  (Heaven forbid servicing the users).  I find more and more
subscribers from the internet that are subscribing to lists on Bitnet
listservs that are simply redistributions of internet lists.  When I've
asked some of them in the past, it was because they found it easier
and more accurate.  Several also commented on the two big items
mentioned here in the past, interactive messages and sender initiated
file transfer.
  I'm also getting a little tired of the internet biased people
just drop Bitnet and go to internet without discussing these
other issues.  The NJE bashing is not appropriate, and I have
found less productive than the VM-MVS wars that occasionally
get started.  At least with that, I usually learn something from
Leonard that I can apply to my job.

Well, we all have our bad days.
