Hello Greg,

 LL>> 1. There are no Rules.

 LL>> 2. See Rule number 1.

 LL>> If anyone ever tells you that there is a certain

 LL>> in CONSPRCY, then that person does not know about
 LL>> CONSPRCY.  In that case, just assume that he/she/it
 LL>> does not know what he/she/it is talking about.

 GD> well ok, here try this on for size and comfort.

You don't understand.

Size is everything.

Louisiana is more like a banana republic than a real country.
And Cajuns were here first. Before there ever was a USA.

 GD> Not sure if this fits as a bona-fide conspiracy are not?

My grandfather was from Sicily. He got here when he was an
itty bitty baby. Had to have somebody carry him everywhere he
went. At least until he was old enough to walk.

That was hard on my great-grandfather, who never drove
a car in his life. And my great-grandmother had other kids
to see about, as she also had to do a lot of walking.

What that means is that I can become a citizen of Italy
simply by showing up in that country and signing a few papers.
I can probably do that from here, but have not looked up any
details on that subject.

Of course, I would have to learn a whole new language upon
arrival, and not quite sure if my old brain is up to that.

 GD> Aren't you in the U.S. 'down in the bayou' last I knew.
 GD> A swampy kinda of place; Twin to the Planet Dagobah as seen in Star Wars.

How to give directions in Cajun French.
From the point of where you are located -
* up the bayou - to the north of where you are
* down the bayou - to the south of where you are

Hank Williams found it all - on the bayou.

 GD> If that is true, then why is your origin coming out of Zone 2?
 GD> Is this because you do not have a node in Zone 1?

What does it matter where one's origin happens to be?
Fidonet began with nothing more than a handful of friends
in a local area. The idea of zones did not come about until
much later, when Tom Jennings decided it was a good idea -
without stating any known reason as to why.

Everybody owns a node. Even if they don't show it.

A sysop is one who operates a system.
All sysops own a node.
The only criteria to become a Fidonet sysop is to demonstrate
the ability to send and receive netmail.

For Life,
Lee
