Hi Rob,

Are you trying to insinuate something about my BBS? :)

I actually stumbled across this OLR called SemPoint. I've never heard of it,
but man is it neat. Rather than just doing the old "get a packet, read a
packet, save reply packet" deal, it builds a message base on my computer.
Every packet I download gets added to the existing messages, so that I can
reference old messages right in the program. It's got a ton of options that I
like, handles BW/QWK and some other types. All in all pretty neat.

Of course, everything looks neat in the beginning, we'll see how it turns out
:)
