Good copy. I know my own entry was delayed in the nodelist but it was
completely a local issue well below the Z1C. I think it was 1992 or 1993
before I showed to the world. Very strange. I entered in late 1989 in Net202.
I don't show until my NET202 Treasurer address was added after a local vote
(obviously well known as a local sysop already and had been a Telegard beta
since 1989).
