Because in my universe, it's a virtue to delete extra text... it is a very hard
habit to break.

Plus I run a BBS here <shameless plug> at the Bits-N-Bytes BBS
http://bnb.synchro.net |or| bnb.dtdns.net telnet FTP NNTP IRC gopher and mail
servers. 
It's a hobby for me and a few hundred others. I snag this and a couple of other
ngs for inclusion so I can get it all in a QWK packet a few times a day.

Besides the message base, I have several online [TEXT] based games. LORD[1] not
being the least of them. I have a few word puzzle games. I havea about a half
dozen dedicated (mostly) users/regular callers that find some distraction in
playing scrabble or word war.

Did any of you folks ever visit a BBS in the pre-WEB days? Feeling nostalgic?

If you know how to use the telnet app in windows or have telnet in whatever OS
you use. I invite you all to stop in and look around. It's nothing fancy but
it's home to me. Use GUEST to login with or make an NEW account.




[1] LORD = Legend of the RED Dragon. 
I am the only current player and have a ton of points.
