    ================================================================



    Welcome back to those Fidonet members that were affected by
    Hurricane Florence...  Hurricane Florence's effects are still
    being felt in some areas as possibly another Hurricane may form
    shortly..  Nov.  30 is the eh...  end of Hurricane season in
    these parts :(

    Outside of Hurricanes, there are still members 'out' as far as
    their connection to Fidonet goes, like Bill McGarrity.  In
    Bill's case, it wasn't the Hurricane that blew away his internet
    lines...  IIRC, a road crew plowed through an internet cable
    over that way...  and sometimes, it is even more amazing to me
    that after all of these various and sundry reasons to 'not
    connect' that we still pull together as a group or 'family'
    called Fidonet to connect with each other every day :)

    For a interesting perspective of BBSing and BBS's please also
    see Rob Swindell's article, "Why BBS?", in this issue.  Thank
    you again Rob, for sending this in.
