Hey DM

Ha! Yes, it's true, and I am doing that as we speak, but Claude still spits out 
a piece of crap that takes months to trouble shoot. But - I have learnt more 
about BBSing (in particular FTN stuff) in that 3 months through troubleshooting 
than the last 34 years combined. It is an odd combination - using cutting edge 
technology to code something that is based on the opposite.
