Wait just a durn minute here!  

dasys1 is hardly a "pay for play" system.  Ain't nobody getting rich on the
$5 a month support fees charged here... and we pull our weight, as we are the
only alt.* backbone in NYC.

I'm sure Rob will fill you all in on the rest of the situation, but since he's 
not able to get on as often as he'd like right now, I thought I'd better stand
up and be counted!

Buncha snobs on this net...
