 RC>> What if I ran a BBS and wanted to make the Fidonews viewable
 RC>> from the bulletins menu, most BBS's would require me to rename
 RC>> or copy the Fidonews to a filename that the BBS would recognize
 RC>> as a bulletin?

 BF>    How come you guys always have to pick out a small detail
 BF> from a bigger picture,

because the detail(s) are the important parts...

 BF> and then blow that little detail up to unbelievable proportions?

if it takes that to get others to finally see the point, then that's what it
takes...

i can't count the times that i've had to greatly embellish on one detail for
some eternally argumentative folk to finally see it and acknowledge it... it
only takes one detail to blow one's _fill_in_the_blank_ out of the water... and
the size of the detail doesn't matter in many cases... just the fact that it
exists and can be used is all it takes...

 BF>    Can you please back off ten yards and replay the game?
 BF> What's at hand here is 1000+ messages that has constantly
 BF> accused me of violating "international law".

that's only one of the threads that stemmed from the original post about the pi
link on your pages...

there is also the thread on whether or not the link(s) are or were actually
hidden... i've never seen them as hidden as they have always shown up boldly
indicating that they are a link to something...

there was another thread or two but i cannot remember what they were about...
i've skipped some 500+ messages in this echo that arrived in the few days that
i was away... i did, however, answer some few that were directly addressed to
me...
