I don't know John. There were tens of thousands of us who ran BBS and we
personally paid for the long distance phone charges and equipment and
all. And I don't see it as a bad thing at all. And if a very few
continue and run USENET servers because it is something they believe in.
Well I see it as a good thing. ;-)

Oh, so do I! I'm just wondering how, rather than why, they do it -
basically, how do they afford it! But I don't want to ask too loudly in
case it breaks something (-:!
