Logging on to TTG BBS

[nsivin@xxxxxxxx (Nathan Sivin)]

I just tried calling the TTG BBS at 2400 BBS and then 4800 BBS. In both cases
I got the opening screen and a request for my name. It then put on the screen
a "calling from" inquiry and, without pausing for me to reply, asked me "is
this correct?" Regardless of whether I answered yes or no, in about a second I
was told that the authorized time had expired and that I needed to be
authorized, and the BBS hung up.

I hope this helps untangle your problem. Again it might help to answer the
questions in my message of yesterday.
