       This is a test site that contains my old notes that I created elsewhere
       over the years.
        
       After reading this fascinating August 2016 MinnPost article titled "The
       rise and fall of the Gopher protocol", I decided to setup my own gopher
       site.

       I found a lot of gopher help and related info at:
        
 (DIR) gopher.floodgap.com
        
        
       Here at gopher.soupmode.com, I'm using the Bucktooth gopher server.

       Most or all Gopher clients can display HTML, which sort of defeats the
       purpose of gopher, but I found the creation and display of gopher text
       files a little annoying, especially when displayed on the phone. But
       maybe reading a gopher file comfortably on the phone is asking too much.
        
       On the iPhone, I'm using the gopher client called iGopher.
