In a message on 11-01-18 mark lewis said to Holger Granholm:

Good evening Mark,

ml> as i'm reading this, yes it is... as i write this it is 20:34
ml> -0400... today has been a long day... we had to dig test pits in raw
ml> woods/forest today... lots of vines and undergrowth making it hard

Europe did go back to standard time oct. 28th so it's now -0300 hrs.

What are those test pits for?

ml> the pits dug, we ran some penetration tests to see how firm the soil
ml> material is at that point... one of our holes was 25 feet (7.62 meters)
ml> deep... some grueling work at times climbing up and working on the
ml> slopes in those conditions...

It's a fact of life that all upward slopes are taxing. ;o)

 HG> I'm also glad to see one area after another come back to life again.
 HG> Since Florence and other weather disasters only the SYSOP echo has
 HG> been alive.

ml> SYSOP? hummm... i know there are several sysop echos but i remember

The echo is FN_SYSOP the 'INTERNATIONAL FIDONET SYSOP ECHO' as it states
in the description.

ml> PS: you really need to get your fidonet system somehow connected to
ml> the internet so you can get messages faster and be connected to more
ml> systems for messages... sadly i'm no longer doing POTS connections

I know but first of all I'm in no hurry to get messages faster because I
won't get more time to do them and I have no users that wont other areas
than I carry, but I actually have a more modern machine to set in after I
can find/get hold of PCI card containing a PS/2 mouse socket.

Whatever else there is on that card won't matter because the one I have
does have only one USB port and an IrConnector in addition to the PS/2.

As a last resort I could use an USB mouse but that leaves only 2 USB's
for other uses on the 3-port USB card.


Have a good night,

Holger
