"Yousa no worry.  Meesa fix," Jar-Jar said to Jedi Knights George Pope
and Todd Sullivan, who looked at each other in resignation.

 GP> But, of course, a fido echo is already PUBLIC!!!

Opps.  I'd forgotten that.

No, actually Fido isn't as public as implied.  The Internet is certainly
public; you have to go through more to get into Fido.

 GP> Anyway, what can be done about this porting of echoes onto the net
 GP> (including posting of archives)?

Most sysops will honor requests not to port/gate echos, either directly or
when posted in the rules.
