(1000 pardons if you've seen this on comp.dcom.bbses)

I will be writing an article on international telecommunications soon, partly
in the hope that it will dispel some of the mindset that the only countries
with decent access to telecommunications are Canada and the US.

I have plenty of sources, but I'd be an idiot to ignore a source like this
net.  So, if you have any stories or facts about international modeming or
communications, I'd be grateful for them.  Dealing with PPTs, finding a good
modem that meets standards, modem costs, finding and/or running BBSes, phone
line quality, trials, tribulations, rewards, international networks such as
WWIVNet or Fidonet, etc.  Nothing too small.  Post here, or e-mail and I'll
summarize.

Thanks.
