*  202 NOTES:  I've been asked to pass along that you need to pay attention   *
*  to the distribution and rules of a conference before requesting a link to  *
*  it or passing it along to others.  The EchoList lists ANY conferences any  *
*  moderator wants to advertise.  But not all of these conferences are        *
*  available in FidoNet; and of those that are, not all of them are on the    *
*  FidoNet Backbone.  On top of that, many of these conferences have specific *
*  requirements concerning who is allowed to link-in, and rules about who is  *
*  allowed to participate in the conference itself.  Simply seeing the thing  *
*  listed somewhere doesn't mean it's free-for-all public property.  So,      *
*  please respect the others involved in this hobby, and make sure you fully  *
*  understand the rules of any conferences you carry.                         *
*                                                                             *
*  For those conference Moderators who don't participate, I'd like to bring   *
*  your attention to a conference called MODERATOR.  It's on the Z1 Backbone  *
*  and it's just for YOU.                                                     *

Abortion discussion from the Christian perspective.                    KILLBABY
         Anyone who had been aborted wouldn't be here.  If inconvenient babies
         weren't really alive, there would be no need to kill them.

AD&D Discussions                                                      AD&D_CHAT
         This echo is for discussion of topics related to the Advanced
         Dunegeons and Dragons game as published by TSR, Inc.  Games of AD&D
         are *NOT* played in AD&D_CHAT!  Discuss/post original monsters, NPC's,
         spells, magic spells and items, etc.  Compare gaming strategy (player
         and DM alike), tips/hints, campaign worlds, your convention
         experiences and review AD&D-related products.  NOTE:  AD&D games can
         and are being in the AD&D echo - a separate echo on the Fidonet
         backbone that I co-moderate with Scott Royall (1:106/357).

Adults' SMUT Echo                                                          SMUT
         The SMUT echo is intended to be an adult oriented conference.  There
         is no fixed topic, although SMUT can be used as a forum for trading
         adult fantasies, or meeting new people.  This echo is also intended to
         discuss various other topics of concern to adults.  Moderation is kept
         to a bare minimum in order to foster free speech.  This echo is
         intended to be fun, and somewhat smutty, hence the echo title.

Amiga International Echo                                                  AMIGA
         The International Amiga Echoconference is intended to foster
         discussion of all models of the Commodore Amiga computer system.  This
         echo is intended as a source of answers to questions users might have
         about the Amiga, and as a clearing house for new information about new
         Amiga products offered by Commodore and by third party vendors.
         Hands-on reviews of such products are encouraged, especially with hard
         facts and data.  We invite everyone who uses the Amiga, or who is
         interested in the Amiga, to participate in this echo through the
         friendly and helpful exchange of information.

         covers a topic which is very emotional in nature at times, but those
         participating are encouraged to avoid being entrapped by the emotions
         of the issue and to allow those with opposing viewpoints to state
         them. The hope is that through reasonable and rational discussion, the
         plight of animals in modern society may be positively advanced.  There
         is a rule file called "ANIM_RTS.RUL" which is posted weekly and should
         be available in the Echolist Rules File.

A_Theism Education and Enlightenment Echo                              A_THEIST
         Operates as an independent forum for free thought and with the
         understanding that the Constitutional separation of State and church
         is not only desirable but absolutely mandated by the U.S.
         Constitution and works toward that end with education and source
         information. It is not a 'bashing' Echo but it does operate under the
         opinion that organized religion must be thwarted in their attempt to
         undermine the government of these United States of America by
         continuously striving to inject its dogma and doctrine into the U.S.
         and State and Local governments. Copies of past traffic in the Echo
         are available in the sample file A_THEIST.ZIP and in the Echo archive
         files A_ECHO1.ZIP-A_ECHO5.ZIP by file request from FidoNet listed

BULLETIN BOARD ADVERTISING                                              BBS_ADS
         This Conference is intended for the discussion of BBS's and for Sysops
         to promote the features which they believe make their System Unique.
         One of the best methods of advertising, is word of mouth.  The BBS's
         users may be encouraged to post in this conference messages about the
         features they like best or what they may be looking for in a BBS....
         Be aware that the Backbone frowns upon the use of GRAPHICS AND HIGH
         ASCII characters which cause problems on many Compters.  As there are
         many computers which are -not- compatable with IBM's and clones.
         Please avoid posting Graphics which you might use on your BBS here.
         FLAMES or OFF TOPIC MESSAGES and excessive quoting increase the cost
         of EchoMail, please be considerate of the Sysop who is paying the
         bill.

Christain Sysop Echo                                                 CHRIST-NET
         A gathering place for SysOps wanting to make their boards more
         dedicated to serving Christ. Some ideas have been sharing ideas that
         have worked for each member of the echo (what works for one can work
         for another). On the outlook for some good Christian files? The 10
         best files names from each SysOp would be great! Come on and give it a
         Try!

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome                                                    CFS
         Anyone with CFS, involved in treating it, or just interested in the
         disease is invited to join this conference to exchange information.
         Knowledge of practical treatments is often spread by word of mouth
         (and electronic mail).  So tell what you know about CFS and ask
         questions.  Let's put CFS to bed so we can rise up and get on with our
         lives.

Coffee Lover's Conference                                                COFFEE
         Currently available on Region 17 "backbone" and by request anywhere
         else.  The COFFEE echo is for coffee drinkers.  This includes folks
         who fussily grind their own imported beans, worry about getting the
         correct carmel on their expresso to the folks who chug down a couple
         mouthfuls of instant coffee crystals first thing in the morning.  And
         everyone in between.  We're talking about coffee, not coffee cake,
         coffee snacks, etc. (There is a fine backbone echo, COFFEE_KLATSCH,
         for that purpose).  Ok, we can occaisionally talk about tea... but
         don't go overboard. Possible Topics can include: Brewing techniques;
         How you like _YOUR_ coffee (styro cup, mug, fresh bean, instant, etc);
         Any technical expertise any of us can offer (water decaffination,
         brewing time, half-life of brewed coffee, etc); All the different
         varieties, roasts, etc; 5.  New trends (eg the new "drive-through"
         expresso shops; How other folks drink their coffee (from Amity, Oregon
         to Europe, Saudi Arabia, etc); Where is the _BEST_ coffee (eg Twin
         Peaks) available (in your personal and biased opinion)

CONSULTING                                                           CONSULTING
         CONSULTING EchoMail conference is an international forum for
         management and technology consultants with a variety of specialties.
         It is _not_ a general "help" echo. Some of the topics which are
         appropriate in this forum are: operation of a consulting practice,
         finding clients, getting contracts and getting paid, networking with
         other consultants, setting fees, starting a new practice and ethical
         issues pertaining to consulting.  Technical questions may be more
         properly directed to echos where they will be considered "on-topic".

Employment and Job Conference                                              JOBS
         The JOBS echo is for discussion of employment related issues.  This
         can include practically anything that is job related.  Almost anything
         that is about your current job or getting a job is acceptable.  It is
         also appropriate to post a resume or job offerings.  Discussion that
         is not job related, or job related discussions that get off topic
         (such as religion, politics, personal life styles, drugs, human
         rights, etc.) are not appropriate in this echo.  It is recommended
         that nodes receiving this echo also get the sister echo JOBS-NOW,
         which lists job offerings only.

Entrepreneur conference                                            ENTREPRENEUR
         This conference is for those who own their own business or who are are
         self-employed, or would like to be.  We also talk about various
         money-making opportunities, legal matters, and other topics of
         interest to those who are in business for themselves.  It is not
         intended for the discussion of Multi-Level Marketing, therefore, to
         help keep these topics separated, the conference rules require that
         sysops who carry ENTREPRENEUR must also carry the MLM conference
         (please see the entry for the MLM conference).

Free/Pirate Radio Topics                                             FREE_RADIO
         A general message area for shortwave and medium wave listeners that
         enjoy logging pirate broadcasts.  This echo will be used for the
         distribution of loggings, frequencies, QSL addresses, and other hints
         and tips related to Free Radio and Pirate hunting.  This type of
         listening can be very fun and exciting.  Discussions of Clandestine
         and Numbers broadcasts are also welcomed in this echo area.  .  This
         echo is not on the backbone at this time (01/15/92) but I hope to have
         it on the backbone soon.  To do this we need readership!  Need one
         more REC for the backbone.

         GhostNET is an echomail area meant for discussions on any type of
         weird happenings, questions, or just general information on paranormal
         occurences.  This is a serious attempt at discussion in an area that
         is usually toyed with by movies, or just dismissed as normal, everyday
         occurences.  There are no restrictions on this area.  It is open to
         everyone, either experienced in this area, or not.

Grandparents                                                           GPARENTS
         Here's the place for all grandparents to get together and do their
         bragging and sharing of all those stories about their grandchildren.
         Drag out all those pictures and show them to a captive audience.
         Sometimes it may be a sadness to share too.  If you're a grandparent,
         a great grandparent,  or about to become one, come on in, the water's
         fine!

Howard Stern Discussion Echo                                         STERN-SHOW
         A conference for fans of New York "Disc Jockey" Howard Stern.   This
         conference covers any material that is applicable to the Howard Stern
         TV or radio shows.  While the Moderator doesn't restrict access to
         underage computer users, it would be wise of the local SysOps that
         carry this conference to mask out younger users, as the conversation
         SOMETIMES gets onto the adult happenings that Stern frequently covers
         on his programmes.  If you're a fan of the #1 Morning DJ in the USA,
         then you need to pick up this conference.   Contact the Moderator at
         1:273/928 in order to arrange a feed, since this conference isn't on
         the backbone (yet).

Issues Concerning Gays and Lesbians                                       ICGAL
         Discussions about real-world issues facing homosexuals.  Talk is
         intentionally less "chatty" than other homosexual related conferences,
         typically is not sexually explicit.  It is intended both for honest
         discussion and as a support group, where resources, advice, and ideas
         can be shared.  Conference is INTENDED to be open to the public on
         systems that carry it, but may, of course, be placed in a private
         area.

         however, should be sensitive to the feelings of net users and adhere
         to the guidelines for posting.  JOBS-NOW is not a discussion group or
         a group for posting resumes.  It is acceptable to repost offerings

         investment are not allowed.  JOBS-NOW has strict and detailed
         conference rules, which should be read before posting any messages.
         PLEASE READ CONFERENCE RULES BEFORE POSTING ANY MESSAGES.  Readers of
         this echo are REQUIRED to post a bonafide job offering at LEAST once
         per month as a "payback" for the service.  See Rules posted in

Kate Bush Appreciation                                                 KATEBUSH
         Kate Bush is a musician/singer who is quite popular in Europe, but has
         really never had much of a folowing in the United States.  She does
         have devoted fans, though, and many of us meet through the KATEBUSH
         echo. Conversation is not completely limited to KaTe, though; we
         tolerate discussion of artists who do or could influence her work.
         Also, digests from usenet's Kate Bush conference, rec.music.gaffa, are
         posted. The moderator will PAY for distribution within Zone 1, and can
         arrange for gateways into Zones 2 (UK or Sweden), 3 (Oz) and 6 (Hong
         Kong).

Macintosh Entertainment & Education Echo                              MAC_GAMES
         Since the release of the Macintosh, Apple has sought to establish it
         as a business machine, going out of its way to describe its Apple II
         line as the education/entertainment machine.  This echo is dedicated
         to the transmission of information about the entertainment and
         educational qualities of the Mac, information not readily found in IBM
         type gaming magazines, and for the most part neglected by
         MacUser/MacWorld.  Reviews of Mac game, educational, and children's
         programs, both commercial and shareware are welcome, as is info about
         new releases and upgrades. Hints and tips about using these types of
         software are very welcome. Lobby for your favorite programs! Share
         critical comparisons of software (Might & Magic II vs.  Pool or
         Radiance, or Typing Tutor vs.Type!,or THE Gradebook vs.  Classroom
         Aministrator, etc.) Posting of used software for sale is also welcome,
         but it is required that such software come with the original manual(s)
         and master disk(s). [WARNING - DUE TO UPDATE AGE THIS ENTRY WILL BE

Major League Baseball                                               ML-BASEBALL
         Discuss all topics that directly concern MAJOR LEAGUE Baseball like
         teams, players, and TV contracts.  Topics vary from detailed
         statistical analysis to incredibly biased opinions. Deliberate insults
         are not welcome, but lively, logical debates are. Certain other topics
         are NOT encouraged, such as: Trading Cards for profit, and minor
         league baseball.  During the off-season, trade talks and free-agents
         signings enliven our discussions! Who made the best trades? The worst?
         What free agent will sign where? Also, our fearless forcasters risk
         respect with predictions of the coming season! Winter may be the worst
         time for playing baseball, but its the best time to talk/argue/discuss
         about our favorite sport!

National Flame! Echo                                                      FLAME
         A general "no-holds-barred" echo for a heated discussion and debate
         about almost anything you care to Flame about! The echo can get quite
         nasty and "hot," but there is a general attempt by all participants to
         argue/debate/bitch in an intelligent and lively way, though regression
         into ad hominem assaults ("personal attacks") and/or resorting to the
         exchange of obscenities and insults is allowed, and quite likely: it
         is the *FLAME!* echo after all.  The echo is completely *UNCENSORED*,
         has few (if any) rules and exists for one and all to blow off steam,
         or just plain get nasty if you find you can't get nasty anywhere else.
         Do not go gently into Flame: it's NOT for the weak of heart (or mind!)

OtherNets: Information on Networks other than FidoNet                 OTHERNETS
         The OTHERNETS echo has been established for the dissemination of
         information about "OtherNets".  OtherNets are the multiple alternative
         networks other than Fidonet.  Many of us know of some, such as
         Alternet, EggNet, SigNet and RBBS-NET.  But did you know a network
         exists for Star Trek fans?  Or Macintosh sysops?  How about a network
         for those of the Christian faith? Have you heard of MetroNet?  LCRNet?
         Paranet?  Candynet?  Or the "69LIST"?  If not, then OTHERNETS is the
         echo for you!

Parrots and Other Cage Birds Echo                                    AVICULTURE
         Definition Aviculture:  The raising and care of birds, especially of
         wild birds in captivity.  This message area was originally started in
         1985 just as the boom period in keeping parrots and pet birds
         escalated.  In this area, we discuss anything and all related items to
         keeping of pet birds - especially parrots and cage birds such as
         finches, parakeets, canaries, cockatiels, and the like.  If you own
         one bird or dozens, this area is where you can exchange experiences
         with your fellow bird-people.  AVICULTURE has been written up in BIRD
         TALK, AMERICAN CAGE BIRD and WATCHBIRD.  Join us there!

         hand.

Prayer Now!                                                          PRAYER_NOW
         Prayer Now! is a FidoNet "prayer chain" operating in the light of what
         Jesus states in Matthew 18:20, "For where two or three are gathered
         together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." FidoNet is an
         excellent way to bring "two or three", or more folks together, so why
         not use an echomail area as a prayer channel? Prayer Now! is an echo
         that has two simple functions: To ask for, and to offer prayers.
         That's it! Simple and to the point.  Got an event in your life, or a
         sick relative? Got a test coming up? Need help with your family or the
         weather? Tell us about it and receive coast to coast prayers as a
         result! Prayer Now! is based on Christian beliefs, but all are welcome
         as long as the user agrees to participate in the spirit of the echo.
         Check out the PRAYER.RUL file (f'req from 379/26 or Elist Coordinator)
         for more details, but basically no preaching or debating - just
         prayers.  File request PRAYER for sample messages from 379/26.

         the discussion of Psychology by the General Public.  Please remember
         when you are discussing subjects here, that this area is intended for
         the lay person.  Using terms which have to be explained, is
         detrimental to the purpose of this Conference, for they inhibit
         general communication.  FLAMES or OFF TOPIC MESSAGES and excessive
         quoting increase the cost of EchoMail, please be considerate of the
         Sysop who is paying the bill.

         of helping other sysops add to their Opus's quotes file.  Now this
         echo is open to any verified user on any FidoNet system.  The quotes
         are from known, published authors or well known anonymouse quotes.
         Where possible, the author of the quote is always given.  Religious
         quotes belong in the Religious echos, please.  The QUOTES echo's
         regulations are entered monthly by the moderator.

Reproductive Rights (Choice) Issues                                REPRO_RIGHTS
         The usual reproduction equation is: get married, get pregnant, give
         birth, raise a child.  Alter even one part of that equation, and most
         of our society doesn't know how to deal with you.  Chances are, our
         government doesn't want to deal with your unique situation, either.
         That doesn't make YOU crazy; it just means THEY don't understand.  If
         you're interested in altering that equation, or if you're interested
         in legislation or bureaucracy that tries to make us conform our
         reproductive lives to their standards, join us.  This echo is intended
         to be a support group and a clearinghouse for information that affects
         our most personal family decisions.  An open mind and a willingness to
         tolerate others' choices is a prequisite for joining this conference.
         Contact Donna at 114/113.11 to establish links; we hope to be on the
         backbone before long.

Satellite Television Echo                                                  TVRO
         The TVRO echo is the place to be for anyone interested in satellite
         television.  For the novice, we discuss the types of satellite
         equipment available for the average homeowner, with advice from
         satellite dealers nationwide.  For the current dishowner, TVRO
         explores the politics that has moved this infant industry since its
         start in the early 1980's.  From the influence of cable television on
         dish owners to the issue of signal piracy, TVRO participants range
         from cable company officials to TVRO activists trying to reregulate
         the cable television industry which has been accused of keeping TVRO
         from being a competitive threat.  The 90's bring new topics to TVRO as
         well, from the new Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS) services to fiber
         optic "Telco TV" and wireless cable. [WARNING - DUE TO UPDATE AGE THIS

SHAREWARE Software Products Discussion Forum                           SHAREWRE
         This echo is for use by those who are interested in discussing the
         various software programs which are distributed as shareware as well
         as the moral, ethical and philosophical issues surrounding shareware
         and its distribution.  "Shareware" is copyrighted software which is
         distributed by authors through bulletin boards, on-line services, disk
         vendors, and copies passed among friends. It is commercial software
         which you are allowed to try out before you pay for it. This
         conference also includes discussions about public domain, or PD
         software.  "Public domain" has a very specific legal meaning. It means
         that the creator of a work (in this case, a piece of software) who had
         legal ownership of that work, has given up ownership and dedicated the
         work "to the public domain".  Once something is in the public domain,
         anyone  can use it in any way they choose, and the author has no
         control over the use and cannot demand payment for it.  The echo is
         carried internationally and users of the echo are scattered throughout
         the world. As such, and since international calling is so expensive,
         off-topic message restrictions are strictly enforced.  Members of the
         conference include many individuals who are very experienced in the
         use of shareare, including those who have written a variety of
         shareware utilities and programs.  New members and novice users are
         welcome and encouraged to share their experiences, opinions and
         questions. [WARNING - DUE TO UPDATE AGE THIS ENTRY WILL BE DROPPED

         This conference is for those interested in settling, exploring, and
         developing the final frontier.  Acceptable topics include space and
         its related sciences and technologies, plus relative political and
         industrial issues.  We are interested in the space development
         environment of the present and the near future, not scenarios so far
         into the future as to fall under science fiction.  Space is BIG, but
         the focus of this conference is tight.  While some chit-chat on
         physics, astrophysics, and astronomy is acceptable, discussions on HAM
         communications, extraterrestrials, UFOs, paranormal phenomena, future
         mutant humans are not.  The Space Development Conference is for
         activists and settlers, and most certainly for humans only.  It
         focuses on news and issues of current space development activity.

Stephen King Discussion - International                                  S_KING
         This echo is devoted to the works of author Stephen King.  King is
         recognized worldwide as the "Modern Master of Horror" (New York
         Times), and has become a publishing phenomenon, with over 50,000,000
         copies of his books in print around the world.  Many of his works have
         been adapted into movies and audio tapes.  This echo provides a forum
         where fans, critics, and Constant Reader can discuss King's novels,
         short stories, new works expected, movies, trivia, etc.  Opinions are
         welcome, as is the pooling of information on King, dream casting
         choices, and where to find those "hard to find" writings.  Also
         welcome is any discussion on author Tabitha King, and her works.
         Though comparisons between the works of Mr. & Mrs. King, and other
         authors of their genres is irrepressable, we do try to stay on topic!

Survivors' Forum                                                       SURVIVOR
         The SURVIVOR echo is a mutual support network of and for people
         actively involved in seeking effective ways of coping with
         illness/adversity/disability and in using them as opportunities for
         personal growth.  This echo would be of interest to, but is not
         limited to, people who have had personal experience with serious
         illness and/or disability.  There is a certain amount of emphasis on
         cancer, leukemia, blood and bone marrow disorders, and the immune
         system.  There is also some specialization in pediatric oncology and
         hematology.  The contents of the SURVIVOR echo include book reviews,
         notices of special events, information exchange, and sharing of ideas
         and experiences.

Telix Users Information Exchange                                          TELIX
         This echo is for use by those who use or are interested in using the
         TELIX communications program produced by Exis, Inc.  The echo is
         carried internationally and users of the echo are scattered throughout
         the world. As such, and since international calling is so expensive,
         off-topic message restrictions are strictly enforced.  Members of the
         conference include many individuals who are very experienced in the
         use of Telix, including those who have written a variety of Telix
         related utilities.  Script files are regularly entered and passed via
         the echo.  Several systems carrying the echo serve as repositories for
         the scripts which are transmitted via the echo.  New members and

The Dementia Discussion Echo                                           DEMENTIA
         The Discussion is about Dementia in general (dementia is defined by
         saying that (a), it has to have it's twisted mood set into it (ie,
         Fish Heads by Barnes & Barnes, or Wet Dream by Kip Addotta), or
         anything that's REALLY funny! :) )  The Dr. Demento show is another
         draw off from this, along with any other thoughts.  Dementia includes
         Novelty Records, outrageous skits, live clips from skits, and so on.
         Also, suggestions are that if your area is broadcasting the Dr.
         Demento Show, that you PROCLAIM it! Let your Fellow Dementions and
         Dementites share in this great finding of yours!

THE GLASS BEAD GAME                                                        GAME
         A conference where participants develop their thoughts and dreams
         regarding the Glass Bead Game as imagined by Herman Hesse in his book,
         "Magister Ludi."   One technique used is the art of lucid dreaming --
         the technique of becoming conscious in one's dreams.  This technique
         is used in the conference to conduct a group dreaming experiment where
         participants experiment with meeting other participants on the
         dream-plane.  Strong environmental and anti-nuclear bent.

Tough debates handled gently, almost.                                 PROS&CONS
         Active area for those who enjoy robust debates without flaming one
         another, too much.

         This area is for discussion of issues and problems facing teens today.
         This is a support echo for teens who are facing problems such as peer
         pressure, drugs, family problems, gangs, lack of self esteem,
         pregnancy, school problems, and the like. Peer support and adult
         encouragement are very important here. Teens in Fresno County Juvenile
         Hall are able to participate through a special volunteer program,
         therefore, "Handles" are REQUIRED to protect identities.  T.O.T.T
         Sysop companion echo also REQUIRED for Sysops.

         This echo is required for sysops who wish to carry the TOTT echo. This
         is an administrative area which is intended to allow sysops to discuss
         ideas, explore options and brainstorm about problems posted on the
         TOTT echo. It should not be made available to general users.

         conference to provide local users the opportunity to participate in a
         general discussion about the IBM and compatible computers in a forum
         smaller than that of the larger National and International general
         MS-DOS echo conferences. This local forum will afford participants the
         ability to maintain more of an identity by less message traffic and
         area served.  Special emphasis on local events supported by local PC
         Users Groups.

US Robotics HST Modem Echo (All US Robotics Modems)                         HST

         echo covers all the basics from what the technology is, to how to make
         it work for you.  This conference does not cover sales or talk about
         non US-Robotics Modems, it is strictly a technical echo intended to
         exchange useful information.  It is tightly moderated to keep the
         technical exchange on topic.  Learn about high-speed modeming with the
         Courier HST Modem family.  See what there is about this modem that
         causes a majority of high-speed bulletin board operators to choose it
         for their systems.  WARNING:  This is a technical conference, and
         strict adherance to technical terms and definitions are expected.  We
         try to make things as accurate and precise as possible.

Victims of False Accusations of Abuse                                   VFALSAC
         Discussions of the tragedy of FALSELY being accused of child physical
         abuse, child sexual abuse, spouse abuse and other false domestic
         accusations, often in the context of ongoing litigative disputes over
         child custody.  Excesses and seizures of children by overzealous or
         malicious Child Protective Services workers. This echo is NOT for
         victims or perpetrators of actual abuse, but rather for those
         victimized by being FALSELY ACCUSED.  Although NOT connected
         officially with the nationwide VOCAL organization (Victims of Child
         Abuse Laws), this Echo deals with most of the topics in which VOCAL
         and similar local groups are involved.

Wholly Bible Related Discussions                                     HOLY_BIBLE
         Exploring the Christian Holy Bible. With so many "religions" teaching
         opposing doctrines while claiming to be representing "The Bible", many
         are deciding to look for themselves.  Unlike most of the other FIDO
         Bible Conferences, we will not practice the censorship of doctrines,
         opinions or ideas. (No profanity, lewdness, etc will be tolerated,
         though).  Doctrines will face "the Bible test" in an open forum, as
         well as general, Bible related discussion. (Non-denominational) It
         should not be confused with the psudo christian, three god cult echos.

         This echo is for use by those who are users of software which is used
         with the Opus CBCS program (c) Wynn Wagner III.  The echo is carried
         internationally and users of the echo are scattered throughout the
         world. As such, and since international calling is so expensive,
         off-topic message restrictions are strictly enforced.  Members of the
         conference include many individuals who are very experienced in the
         use of Opus, including those who have written a variety of Opus
         related utilities, as well as past and present developers of Opus
         itself.  Code fragments are regularly entered and passed via the echo.
         Several systems carrying the echo serve as repositories for the
         messages / code fragments which are transmitted via the echo.  New
         members and novice users are welcome and encouraged to share their
         experiences, opinions and questions. [WARNING - DUE TO UPDATE AGE THIS
         ENTRY WILL BE DROPPED FROM THE NEXT ECHOLIST]
