For me, 9600 bits per second access can wait.  Leave testing the modems with
the owls at the bottom of your to do list.  Hey - I can't read at 960
characters per second.  It's just that a client "upgraded" from 2400 b.p.s. to
a 28,800 b.p.s. modem.  Had to redefine the autologon because the "faster"
modem is a lot slower at granting cut-through after rate negotiation.  By the
time it cuts-through, the opening screen of this BBS has already begun.  So it
was looking for stuff that had gone by before cut-through.  Love all this
upgrade stuff.

Must cast my vote for Alfred E. Nueman today.  He's the old cartoon bafoon from
Mad magazine.  I think his attributes are the sum of the top three candidates:

His "What?  Me worry" attitude is same as Clinton's. His do little or less
"actions" mimic Dole. And he looks a lot like Perot.

So once more my vote is a write-in for Alfred E. Nueman!

Clear skies.
