Hi Stas,

That's a really bad query! You mostly get nodes that have their host name after the IBN: flag or in the system name field. For instance:

,105,Renegade_BBS_Support,New_Derry_PA,T.J._McMillen,-Unpublished-,300,CM,IBN:ttb.rgbbs.info
,1,bbsdev.net,Lake_Forest_CA,Stephen_Hurd,-Unpublished-,300,CM,XW,IBN
