Hi Darrell and readers,

Different spelling your name is, I'm used to "Daryl". (;->)

Often messages are lost along the way so I too often see replies and not 
the original. It can be due to many causes, but in some cases I have a 
usual suspect, callsign blocking. Especially with all the petty 
squabbling, ill mannered remarks and general nonsense someone can easily 
have his callsign blocked at one or more BBSes. Since bulls are flooded 
and can each you by one of several possible routes, perhaps a callsign 
was blocked along the route taken by the one you should have seen. If it 
took another route, perhaps you would have seen it, but because Australia 
is served by a limited number of Internet links rather than radio 
messages tend to arrive from a particular point of origin over a single 
route only. With radio it's another story, the radio network is vast with 
many available routes, no such thing as a bottleneck there.

Just another reason to use radio, it simply works better overall. Now if 
you have seen the nonsense about a petty squabble involving an Internet 
sysop in Belgium you would take a pretty good guess why land line 
forwarding is so screwed up, petty squabbling at a pinch point has a 
nasty habit of cutting off traffic over a wide area. Radio avoids such 
things, you have heard of "skip" so in another sense it skips over such 
problems.
