    I haven't seen the Basic Echo listed anymore.
    There were sure some members who wrote some very nice Basic Programs in that echo.

    Ed,
    Unforuntately, all of the GT Network and FIDO BASIC echos have fallen by the wayside over the years. The closest thing that I carry would be:

    ILink Programming
    Developernet General
    Developernet VB

    If you would be interested, I could try respinning the FIDO BASIC echo, if
    I could get a few nodes to carry it.

    I can't do BASIC code on this phone to be able to contribute to a BASIC echo. Thanks for the offer. You don't really need to expand the effort just for my sake
    I wasn't meaning to shame You when I made the post about looking for an echo dedicated to BASIC.

    All of the Networks that are on CCO keep me reading where I have trbl keeping up.

    Just thinking, It has been a year (and a bit) since I came back online .
    Thanks for the BBS.

    You were not shaming me. I was not the previous moderator of any of those echoes. ;)

    You've picked a few good ones. There are not many people on ILink but
    they've always seemed like a nice bunch.

    You're welcome!

    Back before I lost dsl service I remembered joining in to conversations on iLink echos.
    Since getting back here I found FSX Net echos have a good bunch too.
    Just good people using BBSNetworks and I'm glad they are still around.

    Thanks again.

    Yeah, there are still plenty of good folks out there. As long as you steer away from hot button topics like politics or religion most of them are all right.
