Too much reading alt.flame - besides, my alt.flame kill file is running
9 to 2 alt.drugs vs. eric mading, and with the mading postings down there's
got to be something else to take up the slack.

Even though I've met you, Meg, I still don't believe that you exist.
For one, this "netMeg BBS in Ann Arbor" is obviously bogus; anyone
who's called it (994-FUNK) can tell immediately that it's really in
Houghton.  I don't believe in m-net either - reliable sources have it
that it's just one phone that's been busied out calling up dial-a-joke,
at least I can't ever get on-line.
