- True, but UUCP BBS, such as mine, connect, usualy, much faster
- with the Internet. I have exchange mail with friends all over the world,
- sometimes taking less than an hour for the mail to get from the sender to
- me. Can you honestly say FidoNet boards do that? Not likely, since the
- hubs only exchange mail during the cheap hours, which makes sense. My
- connection, and most UUCP boards' too, are done much more often than that.
