- Another great place is agora. Friendly users and admin, 6 dialin lines,
- there's no bbs, but for 6 dollars a month you get full access to the internet
- , a shell account (either ksh, csh, bash, and some others) and news (either
- tass, rn, nn, or tin). You get 60 minutes of access per day. For 12 a month,
- you get unlimited time. If you want one of the numbers, e-mail me at
- ethan@agora.rain.com (fast) or ethan.place@f470.n105.z1.fidonet.org (slow).
