                PICKUP 144BBS FILES DIRECT ON YOUR FIRST CALL
                ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  Those of you wishing to call the DownTown BBS just to pick up 144BBS.TXT
  (the ASCII version, ZIPped), or just leave comments, additions or
  corrections to the list can call in using the User-ID "LIST". The Password
  for this account is "LIST".

  If your response, entry, or comment requires a response, please create
  an account. Comments left under the generic LIST accounts will be read
  and acted upon, however, they cannot be responded to since they are
  shared accounts and do not support private e-mail replies.

  There are six lines in hunt - if you require other than 2400, v.32 or
  v.32bis, dial the number below that applies to your modem.

                  Number       Speeds
                  ~~~~~~       ~~~~~~
  Primary Number: 213-484-0260 [14.4k v.32bis 16.8k ZyXEL]
USR v.everything: 213-484-0314 [16.8k HST/14.4k v.32bis/28.8k v.fc/v.34]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 WHAT THIS IS:

 - The 144BBS List is a collection of numbers reported as belonging to US
   BBSes with one or more lines supporting v.32, v.32bis, v.fast class and
   v.34 CONNECTs.
 - 144BBS List is compiled and maintained by Ken Sukimoto, SysOp of the
   DownTown BBS as a service to DownTown BBS subscribers and other callers and
   is published on an irregular basis although we try to have a new release on
   the first of each month.
 - 144BBS List is also available as a comma delimited file for those of you
   using BBS doors for online display and/or in need of info for database
   applications. This file is distributed as 144BBS.DB rather than 144BBS.TXT.
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 WHAT THIS ISN'T:

 - This is not intended to be an advertising list. With the way BBS's change,
   there is no way I or most anyone else could keep up with software/hardware
   changes, doorways added/deleted, specialties of the BBS and other features
   that make a BBS unique. This would also make 144BBS even larger than it
   currently is and just one more opportunity to be inaccurate.
 - Although it is the goal, 144BBS is not comprehensive. I am quite sure there
   are a lot of BBS's that have been omitted - rather than attempt to guess at
   BBS names/numbers/cities and modem types, I am depending on reliable
   sources to submit these missing BBS's and accurate information about them.
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 COPYRIGHT AND DISTRIBUTION:

 - Since the content of 144BBS is for the most part public knowledge, no
   formal copyright for content is applied for.
 - I'm not even sure that the name "144BBS" isn't already copyrighted; if it
   isn't, then that is the only copyright claimed.
 - Rather than legalese and restrictions, I request common courtesy in the
   distribution of 144BBS List.
 - No fee should be charged for 144BBS List other than normal system access
   requirements.
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS:

 - 144BBS List is dedicated to the SysOps who install high speed modems,
   enabling users to access systems at higher and higher speeds. It is also
   dedicated to these same users who motivated the SysOps to install these
   modems through their contributions; material, inspirational and otherwise.
 - Thanks go to the SysOps, Users and Administrators of U'NI Net, SmartNet,
   MajorNet and Intelec for their help and the use of their networks to 
   gather information for this list.
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 NAMING CONVENTION & MISCELLANEA:

 - When distributing this list, do not rename 144BBS.DB or 144BBS.TXT!
 - Most BBSes don't like unarchived text files, so if archived, name the
   archive "144DB-a#.ext" or "144BBSa#" where:
    a  = alpha designator - A=Jan; B=Feb; C=Mar; L=Dec
    #  = the last number of the year; 1994 = 4, 19955 = 5
   ext = whatever extension the archiving program defaults to.
   The December, 1994 release will be named 144BBSL4.ZIP (using PKZIP to
   archive) as an example of the naming convention.
 - Please note - many systems listed are multi-line or multi-node and their
   inclusion on this list does not mean the number listed has that particular
   setup available. Some BBSes are subscription and reserve the high speed
   lines for subscribers only.
 - The 144BBS archives on The DownTown BBS and those directly uploaded by KEN
   SUKIMOTO are archived using the PKZIP -AV authencity validation option.
   When extracted, the -AV information should display The Downtown BBS
   name and the # AIN871 registration.
 - The DownTown BBS is currently a 6 line MajorBBS system with access on your
   first call to download 144BBS. See the file 144PICK.UP for the procedure.
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 DISCLAIMERS:

 - Because these numbers have not been verified, the Compiler of 144BBS will
   not be responsible for erroneous information.
 - Inclusion/exclusion of a BBS is NOT an endorsement/condemnation of the BBS.
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 ERRORS & ADDITIONS:

 - If you should find a number on the list that is NOT a modem number, please
   notify the DownTown BBS so it can be noted & removed from the next release.
 - If there is an error or if a BBS updates/modifies modem[s], please contact
   the DownTown BBS.
 - If you are a SysOp and wish to be included in the next release of 144BBS,
   please contact the DownTown BBS with the applicable information. Leave your
   board info in private e-mail addressed to User_ID "Sysop" with the subject
   of "144BBS" or to the addresses below via Net or US Mail.
 - Please do not send public messages to KEN SUKIMOTO on networks with your 
   correction, new entry or comment. Although I will act upon the information,
   many networks frown upon sending PUBLIC messages for this purpose.
 - I can be reached by PRIVATE e-mail on several networks that offer this 
   feature. The networks and my address on them are listed below.
 - 144BBS.DB or 144BBS.TXT should not be modified to modify/add/delete
   entries!
