New Fidonews Columnist

Fidonews welcomes Warren D. Bonner to the Fidonews staff as a feature columnist. Warren writes under the pen name of "Ol'WDB" and specializes in history and humor.

Ol'WDB revealed that he maintains a collection of "keepers," such as the articles he published last week and this, in conjunction with his work as a free-lance writer. Warren is currently working on a historical manuscript about the true high seas battles in the Atlantic Campaign of World War II. His latest book, "The Mighty `E'astwind" is due for publication soon by the U. S. Government Press.

Warren is a member of Net 103 along with Joe Jared, Fidonews columnist who has done such a great job in keeping the Internet information current and accurate. Speaking of Joe, catch his column this week. He's been looking at the Fidonet sites and identified some which don't respond or don't appear to be related to Fidonet. If you operate one of these sites and are experiencing temporary difficulties, now is a good time to talk with Joe before your site is deleted. Joe has also added information about Internet Relay Chat and Newsservers.
