If the topic is of interest to anyone, they can definitely chime in right here, too! Unless you're referring to spam/cross posting our conversation to multiple echos to see if anyone bites? Though, I'm not really interested in chasing our not-so-very imporatant conversation around Fidonet, either. > THAT is the way to build "ones that there's actual conversation > in" too. ;) If we did that, this echo would end up empty, then. I don't think it matters where we have our conversation. If people want in, they'll join no matter where the conversation is taking place. At the rate of decline of this network, we should be happy we have any conversation at all, to be honest. At this point, there's more robot postings in Fidonet than actual conversation. :) Regards, Nick ....
