I found this exchange surprising enough that I waited a couple of days to see if anyone else would fup before doing so... FTL Systems, whoever they may be, certainly are in the phone book. To find them, you merely have to understand that Bell Canada gives special treatment to "names consisting of initials", and look on page 560 instead of page 625 (in the 1989 book). The address 5334 Yonge is given; that's way up there in North York. The phone number was already posted. > 411 is a bitty brain-damaged. If *they* don't know how to look up a name consisting of initials -- you said it! -- Mark Brader "... there is no such word as 'impossible' in SoftQuad Inc., Toronto my dictionary.
