That's funny; node 30 is NOT running on a USR Courier 2400 because
BBS64 refuses to work reliably with it.  If you'll recall, we went all
around this subject on PN about half a year ago with Node 31 and the
C2400 that Jim purchased.  My problems are more serious than Jim's
"occasional crash."  However, due to Steve's attitude, the general
lack of interest in PunterNet, the cost of adding Yet Another Phone
Line (and monthly bills, too) and various other factors (BBS64's
extreme maintenance demands ... especially), I see no reason to run
the beast.  HHBBS is chugging along quite nicely on a setup that is
serving everyone just fine, and the interest in a second, network
based BBS is nil.
