Hello All,

I am looking for a link for the EARTH FDN file areas.

Since 261/38 shutdown I haven't recieved those files.

Anyone getting those files and where can I link?

Yes, those are the ones. I wonder where he is hatching those files, where they can be picked up?

Janis - but getting these uplinks to use another is taking a wee bit of time.

Yes, that is where I was getting them but Janis's system doesn't answer anymore.

I don't mind reaching out to get those files if I knew where to go.

i would contact dan at his system and see what he says... i would hazard a guess that he'd be willing to link you in and then you can pass them on to anyone else linked to those areas with you... i don't know if he was only linked to janis or not... off the top of my head, i don't even know what software he is using...

I have netmailed Dan but not heard anything back yet. He may be unaware of what has happened at 261/38.

i don't know if he was only linked to janis or not...

Aside from a few links I think Janis's system did the heavy lifting. She got the files moving to hubs and connected nodes. If we can get the hubs linked so nodes have another place to connect I think we'll be OK.

off the top of my head, i don't even know what software he is using...

I think his node is using the husky software, hpt and htick.

She has shutdown most of her system and the rest no doubt soon.

If you would like you can get files and echos from me just send me your address
that you will use along with a password case sensitive for:
session
echo processing
file processing

Send DIRECT, CRASH to me at 2:250/1

You can then just link in to what one's you need and yes I carry the lot other than for echos that are German, Russian or usegroups other than the one's I get
direct from the servers.

Hi Alan!

Just check with all your links.
If none of them carries it, go directly to the source (Dan?) and establish a link with him.

I do not carry that particular file echo.

Hi Ricsi,

Yes, those are the ones. I wonder where he is hatching those files,

Just check with all your links.

I am connected at three nodes now.. ;)

Yes, I have reached out to Dan but I haven't heard back yet. I read elsewhere that Dan was having issues IRL that requires his attention right now so I suspect that can be done in time.

I do not carry that particular file echo.

There are linked nodes here so that is why I hope to get connected, one way or another.
