Update: I quit backtalk, telnetted in and forgot about 7 items.
Upon my return to agora via backtalk later this morning, 4 of those
items were still on my "current items" list!
I tried going into one of the items and using that forget button, but
it just reset the current page without even attempting to connect to
grex. (I did, later, succeed in forgetting that particular item.)
Did I somehow get a corrupted config file? It didn't seem to loose
track of which responses I've read.

Perhaps your agora participation file is corrupt.

I don't know off hand what happens if you close your telnet session without
either exiting Picospan or at least going to another conference, but it seems
possible that your participation file doesn't get updated.
(There is a command - I think it's "set autosave" which, for your current
session, causes Picospan to update your participation file as you deal with
each item. That might fix your problem.)

That sounds like it might be what's happening to me, since I usually don't
quit picospan before I quit. Hmm...

Re. 24: That's an assumption, not a fact. And you know what they say about
assuming... 8-)

I got busy signals for a few minutes at a time three times with week, at 4
and 7 pm on a weekday and about 6 last night (Sunday). This is tolerable,
but I would not want to see another phone line dropped. It took only about
5 minutes wait to finally get connected. How long do telnetters wait?

The telnet queue is such that on the average, 3 people a minute can
get in. I've been #75 in the queue a couple of times now, and it took
just under half an hour to get in.

I certainly cannot complain about the phone wait, then.

Yeah, I've been noticing the busy signals too. Of course, this is just more
evidence that you notice what goes wrong, not what goes right - what I
should've found curious was the half-year without any busy signals. Did the
number of people dialing in drop and then rise again, or did we add more lines
a while ago that are just now being filled up, or what?

I've had trouble dialing in to Grex several times today. Each time my
computer would signal that I'd connected (sounded right from the modem sounds,
too) but then I would sit for over a minute waiting for the "welcome to grex,
it may take a few minutes to log on" announcement. I never got it, 'cause
I gave up after 90 seconds. This was happening on 3000, 4931, 5041.

Similar here, but tried only the first & last of those #'s, waited about a
minute after getting the connection, then telnetted.

I know that Grex has had some problems being on the net today.

I also just encountered my first busy signal in a long time (calling Grex,
I mean). Retry a minute later got me in. So we are at the point when the
available lines are occasionally saturated. Not a big problem, at this point.

My calls to Grex have been getting answered by a modem which does not
respond further for about the last fifteen minutes. Apparently the
same problem as reported in #46 and #47. This final time I got lucky,
I guess.

Yeah, I think krj and I were competing for that modem that doesn't connect
right, because all the other lines were full. The fact that Grex answered
every few tries but didn't connect meant that my attack-dial script wasn't
very effective, and I had to keep restarting it. Scott, is there any way to
fix that modem? Do you know which one it is?
Before I finally got in, I tried changing the speed I was calling at from
14400 to 9600, on a lark. I got in right after that, but I can't say if it
was on the modem that's been having problems.

I was unable to log in via modem today. It would connect then nothing.
I'm in on a telnet right now.

I dial in. Yesterday afternoon about 4:30 I dialed -3000 and I *think*
I got no response at all. I tried several other dialins and got busies.
Just now, I got "modem answers but no Grex" on -3000. Then I
got in on -4931.
