I don't think this is my problem.  I'm losing characters in the MIDDLE of
lines, not at the beginning.  And, come to think of it, I'm only losing
characters on certain systems.  I'm running at 2400 baud now and I'm not
losing anything.  If I call a local BBS at 1200 I'll lose some characters.
But only unimportant ones, like in message headers.  I never lose parts of
the actual messages.  I'll have to think on this some more; it's obviously a
lot more complicated a problem than I thought!  Maybe terminal emulation
problems...
