Hi,
      Well, you can't keep a good BBS down.
      Sorry I never got back to all the nice users here who replied to
my previous comments...I got really tied up at work for last 2 weeks.
       90% of all your replies were intelligent and deserved responses
       Ane the other 10% were from jealous misanthropes always with us.
--the funniest one was the guy who was complaining the loudest and then
admitted he's NEVER even CALLED Rusty's .. that really cracked me up !
 
       Well..... guess what ??
 
       RUSTYnEDIE's BBS is.. BACK UP !!!!

               leave us a message or call us voice, our new number is
               216 726-4217, so that we can remove it.
 
           3.  Download a file called R&E-IS.BAC and upload it to every
               BBS you can, also post it in every message base you can so our
