Ärende: Location field
======================
Hello mark,

On Monday August 13 2012 13:40, you wrote to me:

 ml>> the point is that it should be in the location field...

 MvdV>> There is no need for that. The host entry will tell you what
 MvdV>> the country is.

 ml> you don't always HAVE that luxury...

Tough luck. Can't win them all.

 MvdV>> ,37,Circle_Of_Protection_BBS,Bergen,Torbjorn_Mohn,47-55961259,9
 MvdV>> 60 0,V32B,

 MvdV>> Go two lines up and there it is:

 ml> go two lines up in what? the nodelist, sure...

Of course. We were discussing how the location is represted in the nodeist
weren't we?

 ml> but what about in your editor?

What about it?

 ml> tht option isn't there in all editors...

What option? In ALL editors? Are you sure about it?

 ml> the ones i use do have the ability to display the nodelist data for
 ml> the originating system of the message currently being read

I vaguley recall that Golded can do that too. I don't know the key combination,
I never use it. I never feel the need to know where someone exactly is when
answering messages. Hmmm let me consult the on-line help... yes it is there:
F10 and shift F10.

 ml>  but that's it... there is nothing else...

Tough luck. My Golded allows me to scroll though the entire nodelist. 1:3634/0
is two lines above 1:3634/12. But it does not really tell me more then I
already know. I know that you are in the USA. The location field of your
nodelist entries all say: Central NC USA.

This may come as a shock to you, but to the vast majority of the Fidonet
community, this is meaningless. The two letter codes for states are not used in
the rest of the world. My guess is that "NC" stands for North Carolina. But it
is just a guess. To be sure I need additional information that can not be
gleened from the nodelist. Plus of course that even if my guess is correct.
"Central" is rather vague. Actually I'd say that the information in your
location field is pretty useless.

Anyway, this started with "which net covers Montana?". Any nodelist lookup
function in a message editor is useless for that. One has to start a text
editor or some other utility that can do seacrches for a specific string in the
nodelist.

 ml>> a POTS only node doesn't have access to uncle google...
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 MvdV>> 1) A POTS node has a phone book. he can see by the country code
 MvdV>> of the phone number what the country or province is.

 ml> there's no country code on an ION listing, michiel <SIGH>

True, but this comment was about POTS nodes wasn't it? Stop changing the
subjest all the time.

 MvdV>> 2) We still have ISP's that provide dial up access. So a POTS
 MvdV>> only ssyetem CAN have Google.

 ml> and what good is that going to do for unsighted members?

Sorry mate, but it was YOU that threw Google into the discussion:

 ml>> a POTS only node doesn't have access to uncle google...

Why did you do that if you thought it was no good to begin with?

 ml> many unsighted folk are still limited to text only environments and
 ml> that means that a LOT of stuff on the internet is simply not available
 ml> to them...

So... they just have to consult the nodelist do they? Back to square one. You'r
changing the subject again...


Cheers, Michiel
