The main thing to remember with fido, is that there are some *old* grumpy
dudes still floating around, so it's best to just avoid those areas. Sadly
they are in the sysop area's.

That's what sysop's do. Go and make changes for the fun of it, or to try
things out. It's different today though, as back then we mostly only had one
PC (What ever brand/make/type), but today it's not uncommong to have more
than one. I can see six just without moving from my desk right now (Only
three are powerd up). %-&)
