*************************************************************************

I actively encourage the distribution of the archive in its original,
unmodified state (except for archive type conversion) to other BBS
systems. If you upload it to a board that isn't hooked into this echo,
please leave a message for the SysOp to let them know what you've sent.
Ask them (politely) to read it and respond (if they have comments)
through you or by calling one of the systems listed in the report and
posting their comments.

My thanks go out to all who have made this report a reality (with the
exception of the hackers who made the report a necessity, of course).
The report is not "my" report: rather, it's a report _from_ me _to_ you,
based on your posts in FidoNet and other networks. Thanks for your
support, and for helping to keep shareware clean!
