I don't think it is the connectivity of the systems.
IT'S ME )\/(ark!
That day I wrote 11 other messages.
Some of the other messages were written before 2PM,
then I got back to Reading and RIteing at 6PM.
I Logged on and sent the .REP packet around 9:45PM.

I C(W)ouldn't make any $$$$'s if I was running a Business sending
and delivering Messages.   <GRIN>

The last message I wrote that night was in the FIDO_HAM echo
and then I Grabbed my .QWK and Sent the .REP to Mike.

Are Your Eyes Spinning after reading the above?????????
