Your missing the point. NET 229 does not contain the only people capable of 
listing someone in Fidonet, the fact that you all present this impression is 
aside from the point. The same amount of time is expended no matter who helps 
him, the only potential for a travesty here is if he approaches someone and is 
ignored.

This prospect was provided my contact info by 2 other people, I assure you I 
can get him listed alot faster than you can, as far as his desired mail 
service, I can get him referred to one of his choosing equally as fast if not 
service him myself, like I said one stop shopping.

He is in region 18 and that is where he should be, unless the ball is dropped, 
then have at him.

I fully expect your NC to refer him to me or the following NC's:

112, 135 or 361

should the prospect approach him directly or via you, if after doing so, we 
fail, then he is fair game.

Dont go pounding your fists on your desk cussing me, nor shake your fist at 
your monitor, I am very firm about this, we went round and round with your NC 
once before on another Florida node.

Region 18 is not the end all be all of Fidonet Z1, but then again neither is 
NET 229.

Dont lecture me, dont argue either, you know where that will get you.
