    Grammar Correction:

    Dallas, Who is taking on any points to English Echos in your region of Vancouver, CANADA?

    Answer to question:
    No-one that I know of is taking points -- there isn't much use of the point system in North America.



    Cheers... Dallas

    I will take on a point. I have two of them now and if anyone would like a point address they are welcome here.

    Points are not the same as nodes. Nodes can access areas that are sysop only but points can't. Points can access all the regular fidonet echoes like this one, COOKING, ASIAN_LINK and what not, but not the admin areas.

    If you ever run into someone wanting to run a point, feel free to send them my way. :)
