Looks like less messages in this echo today - only around 25 instead of 50 ish. :) But that may be due to a shorter time between logins. :)

I checked the fsxnet messages on some synchronet web forums and found the same mails I've received. Net 3 looks fine.

bumble bees, flies, confused wasps ... every day they come in through the big balcony door and then they have a hard time to find their way out.

I loved that song as a kid ...

There are very few discussions, mostly about network stuff, problems and tests.
Without the Phoobar <-> Vk3jed conversations it's only half the traffic ;)

I still wonder if it is just the normal ebb and flow, related to easter, covid-19, the weather or some technical problems. Maybe a few messages were dropped/corrupted and the discussion threads dried out, but I don't see any real evidence for that. I gues

I think it's normal. I haven't been posting much and I used to be in
the top 10 every month. Still reading every day, just not talking as
much. I'm sure I'm not the only one who goes through those moods. :)

I thought it was because we were supposed to distance ourselves from social stuff (i.e. Social Distancing) so we aren't calling BBSs as much. 8)
