I'm trying to remember if my cell phone contract says that international
calls are free. They do say 'free long distance', but how far is long
distance to Cingular?

If it's been within the past 6 to 8 months, her SD numbers were
disconnected when she moved to New Mexico, but her R10 hub and one other
listing were still listed in the nodelist.

Even though I have always gotten my nodediffs from Dale, I had to check in
with her at least once a week. She always sent me dupes of the nodediff
and they went straight to the trash can. A batch file took care of all
that, so the only thing I ever saw was a log seg, if it happened to be
showing in the bottom of Irex's window when I brought it up. More than
likely it was Dale's activity in that window and nobody eles's.

I dropped RR because their services just weren't worth the money that they
charged for them. What we got in SD for $50, they were overcharging at
$100. SBC/ATT had a better deal and DSL isn't as slow as it used to be. It
almost rivals RR's speed, but not quite. Still, for $18/mo it's well worth
it.

You're right, Ward doesn't have the technical skill to pull it off. They
do orginate in Holland and the dumbass uses Windows and more specifically
Outlook Express, which IDs his OS... :o) I've disabled that email address
for the time being, which makes the 'spam cop' messages go to the 'spam'
folder on the website that hosts my DNS. In a couple of months I'll go
there and dump the crap into the cyberspace trash can.

I'm sure he's in it somewhere, I just didn't have the time to look at
everyone of the nodelists available. Check this site out when you get a
chance. Don't know who FOTI is though.
