   Well, after a few more, new gopher servers, here we are with a couple
new telnet servers, serving old, good MUD games!
Looks like the people at my ISP managed, after just a few weeks (!),
three emails and two phone calls, to open their firewall so that my
server can be reached on port 23 from the internet.  And now their
customers are certainly all vulnerable to all sort of trojans, exploits,
viruses, worms and similia that will spell the worst ills to their IT
infrastructure just because a moron wanted to let people play stupid
telnet games on his louzy computer!

   Alas, I wished I had more free time to both set up a better Gopher 
and a MUD server, plus beeing able to play those games!
