Subj : File, file; who's got the file To : Lesley-Dee Dylan From : Ross Cassell Date : Fri Aug 31 2001 08:20 am Hello Lesley-Dee! 31 Aug 01 09:47, you wrote to Jack Yates: JY>> Ummm...ERNROUTE wasn't very accurate upon its inception either, JY>> IIRC.

Since your hippy little self doesnt understand 1% of the technical crap, like your own software, how would you know, oh thats right, what you call a brain gets hung up on plus signs.

You are right, the IRN is a piece of crap, you being the founder of that coven of fools who seem to think a route chart puts the sysops that need one into a blind trance. Tell me something Dee, when you linked here and now since you are linked to Dale, how convoluted is your ROUTE.CFG? Tell me another thing, NEC135 (picked randomly) is linked here, he routes *.* to me and I handle it for him how important is the IRN or the other chart too him in his system configuration? I have asked you this several times, you have yet been brave enough to answer, you should be able to answer, since you feel the IRN is the end all and be all of the universe? == Ross http://www.the-estar.com:8080 ross@the-estar.com or rcassell@home.com ICQ = 5305939 --- GoldED/W32 3.0.1 * Origin: The Eastern Star [Mail Hub] - 864.573.7069 (1:18/500) .
