I would like to apologize for my error in posting a hp2623 terminal
question (with a descriptive title so uninterested parties would not read
and possibly be offended). I did, by the way get a reply thru the netnews
so it was not all for naught. Thank you Ted, that what I wanted to know.
BUT
To the gentleperson who responded to my request for information about a
2623 terminal with: Get this stuff to...
This was my reply:

Thanks for your friendly advice! If I had known that there was a net.wanted
/periph I would have been in it. I suggest that the next time you take the time
to give someone the benefit of your apparent wisdom, you take an equal
amount of time to brush up on your manners. With the amount of tact, courtesy,
compassion, and net etiquette that you so adeptly displayed, you are obviously
destined for executive city.
Just sign me,
Glad I don't work with you!
P.S. When you command someone to do something, sign your name.
Thanks,
Alex Mandzik
PPSS: If you'd like to send some friendly mail instead, how bout telling me
where to find out about the ARPA/USE/&CS nets? That'll do for a start.

Also, I have since found out the newsgroups. I beg the netland to forgive
my belligerant beginning. Thank you!
