For sure.  Wish I had a 33k.  I'm stuck with 14.4.  Got a lotta stuff
in my ip-up too.  Bums me out when I connect, cause all the stuff is
slow uploading and downloading from ip-up for 10 minutes.

Well, I've got the PINE source code, and it is available for virtually
every OS in existance.  I know that there is a Win 3.1 version.  I
assume that there is also a '95 or NT version as well.  It is kindof
like the "emacs" of email programs if you ask me.  Has it all, and is
portable.  Only, unlike emacs, PINE is easy to use.

And stick your finger in an empty socket.  Ouch.

Yes, but they were my own.  You see, I was walking between two large
buildings and the echo was pretty loud.

Just as long as I get OpenDOS some time this week I can live with the
spooks.  :o)
