Oooooo.... low blow, Steve!  ARICKAPHOBIA indeed.  Hey, I have better things to
do then to sit here and laugh my ___ off at all the stupid things that folks
do, or try to do online.  There's four lines, here, and I can't monitor all of
them in real time all the time, you know.  Besides, I work for a living, you
know?  I do the club stuff duing the day and teaching during the evening.  I do
not sit here watching the BBS.  However, from time to time I turn on the online
activity capture routine.  This routine captures all the keystrokes that folks
do online to a file which is then analysed by a utility that come with TBBS.  I
turn it on from time to time to gather some statistics for future upgrades,
etc.  Now, reading that file can be a real side splitter, indeed.  The sad
thing from your point of view is that you will "never know" when I'm
monitoring... ha, ha, ha, ha....

If you use <f1> prev key to pause the host and look back 8 lines (this is one
of the function key settings in TELCOM on a stock laptop), simply tap your <f1>

If you get totally stuck, just pull the plug and log on again.  This host is
abuser-tollerant!!!  -Rick-
