Pete made a valid remark, but Pete has been on the nos-bbs list long enough

Seems you have not done the nessasary RTFM, this was subject to a thread a
short while ago.
Once again: "Life's to short for 1200 baud."
Just try an old 9600 or 14/4 modem theses days on your telephone line if you
can find an ISP which still has those speeds, you will experiance some of
the problems Pete is having.
