Good point Bill, which, if so, would place the comment at or about the start of the cellfone introduction. @Jim, maybe it's more a telco/2600 thing? None of my overnite greps through old saved chats/snippets came up with anything remotely like it, sadly. I tried a few gopher/archie searches but the system is in very poor shape these days, a shadow of it's early 90's usefulness. Maybe it was on Fidonet or similar? Anyone else have any input? Please ask your old folks ;) Gord
